So one of my friends and sometimes student T. has become addicted to my blog. T. also just happens to be one of the most beautiful women I know. She posted this message to my Myspace.com page.

"your blog is currently my favorite read. i check in regularly. daily even. and you always provide the most satisfying topics and insights. the sudden influx of comments from the non-blogger "t." are indeed mine [though i'm sure you had no difficulty figuring out that little puzzle]. congrats on being awesome."

Suddenly I feel like a celebrity. That's right! In your face, all of those who teased me as a fat kid in P.S. 3! I'm da man!!

So, as with most things in life you have to take your props as they come. Not 30 minutes later I received this message from her:


"alessandro you started high school the year i was born. damn. "

Oh well. Pop goes that bubble. I feel old.
