oh my god. how much do I love you. I LOVE ZENO and his paradoxes. I LOVE Pythagoras and math. and I LOVE YOU for not being a complete idiot like the rest of your classmates seem to be. and you did see me and allie. and we are fun and you do love us. and you did pick me up from school (even if you were late because you felt it was necessary to eat... but I forgive you.) abd we did go pick up allie. and we did take allie to her orthodontist. and then we spent five hours in a book store and drank tea and read and watched people play chess and got yelled at and had a whole bunch of fun. then we went to allie's house and ate food and talked and discovered the depth of my family's insanity. I don't know when your nezxt appointment is.

I have a great idea... I'll just copy and paste this as my new lj entry because I am really tired... why aren't I asleep yet.

I love you and I'm seeing you tomorrow. I love you.
