Between papers, blogging, journaling, posting, and email, I write a lot. To read me, I think, is to know me, and it struck me today that I’d put money on the fact that my professors, after 2 years of reading my papers, know me better than my parents do, who have never read anything I’ve ever written (that I know of. There’s a questionable incident when I was a kid with my diary, but it was never confirmed.)
That kind of made me sad.
Today, though, full of spunk and half-way clear lungs and nose, I spent a couple of hours showing my dad how to use the internet.
It’s an exercise in futility, since I’ve done it several times before, and I will most likely do it several times in the future.
Today, though, was rather enjoyable, despite the crossed arms and the curse words which were, unbelievably, not my own.
