Today's been.... I can't even describe it.
I guess I'll start at the first. My mother's dead. I mean, I guess I already knew that. But now I
know that. Her name was Louise Spalding. She was a redhead, of course, and a firefighter in Alaska. She died the night I was born. She didn't even get to name me. It says 'Baby Spalding' on my birth certificate. There was no father listed, though. Which is just as well. Nathan's my father.
My grandmother, though. She was real sweet. She didn't know who I was, she didn't even know Louise was pregnant apparently, but we met. And talked.
Then there's Laurie.
Laurie's a girl from Vancouver. She got a 1590 on her SAT and had six finals coming up. Then her mutant gene awoke. Supposedly I'm the cause, or my presence. And I'm the reason she's not mentally insane and losing control apparently, too.
Really she jumped off the roof and I just jumped after her. But when I touched her all the crazy went away and her powers broke through and it was all okay again.
She's my new friend, needless to say.
Today's weird.
