I'll need to see the ring first, but we can totally get married.

Wheee! A marriage proposal. Made my day, that did. Can I wear a Vera Wang wedding dress?

The ring, eh? Uh... how about a big pink daimond, just like Ben gave JLo? And I wouldn't have you in anything but Vera. No, no, no! Hee hee!

A pink diamond would be so gaudy and ostentatious. Perfect!

Your writing teacher sympathizes with you right? I took a creative writing class once and the teacher actually kind of dissed (in a nice way) a kid who did this total angsty dark poem full of words that nobody has used in 100 years. I think they must get sick of that stuff.

Oh, she definitely sympathizes with me. You can almost see the boredom in her eyes when someone reads one of heir dark, depressing poems. She rolls her eyes a lot, too. She's very much like me, actually-perky and hyper.

Have I told you lately that I love you?
Have I told you there's no one else above you?
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do.

You are the best EVAH!

Man, if those pretentious wanks had an iota of a sense of humor, they would see that you are obviously doing performance art! And that makes you cooler than all of them put together.

I mean, really - a poem about an anti-abortion rally? How fucking cliche. Don't those kids ever look in the mirror and feel stupid for being so lacking in personalities of their own?

Wow, I think that that is the first time anybody has called me cool, ever. I am so the polar opposite of cool. But thanks.

These kids bug me so much. Just totally fake, depressed whining phonies. Blah. At least I only have the class once a week.

Anyone who gets up in front of a class of Beatnik wannabe poseurs and reads a poem about the Bennifer gets a galaxy of gold stars in my Book of Cool.
