A note from my brother
My mom is going through what's left of the unpacked things in our garage so, after living in the house for almost 2 years, they can finally use it for a car. In doing so she came across something of mine, aparently.
It's a letter from my brother, written around Halloween, presumeably while he is away at college, I'm guessing his freshman year. That would put this letter at ... 14 years ago ... I'd be 10, or so.
Hey you poo-poo head! What are you doing? What's new? How's school? I'll bet you're having a lot of fun doing a lot of homework.
I'm doing pretty good - I could be doing better. You know why? I'll tell you why. I studied really hard for a test and I thought I knew everything really well and you know what I got? I got a "b-". I was really pissed off (don't tell mommy+daddy I said that).
Oh well. I guess I should study more - I should do more school work - just like you, I bet.
In any case, what are you going to be for Halloween? Make sure you take a picture so I can see. I'll bet you're going to get lots and lots of candy. Pretty cool, huh? Just make sure you brush your teeth real well. Do you have your pumpkin yet? Tell mommy you need a really, really, big pumpkin. Get the biggest one you can find. Do you know what you should dress up as? You should dress up as a hebephrenic schizophreniac or Vicent Van Gogh (no, you better not, that could get messy). Actually, you should dress up as SANTA CLAUS. Then, when people don't give you enough candy you can tell them to give you more or you won't give them anything for christmas. I'm not positive mommy would like that, though. But really, you should dress up as SANTA.
I think I'm going to throw up. I ate too much for dinner. It was really good though. I had broccoli pizza from that restaurant where me, you, and Daddy ate. Do you remember that place? If you come up to see me, I'll take you there.
Hey, poo-poo head, do you know where I got this paper? You gave it to me a long time ago. I think you bought it at your book fair.
In any case, it's starting to get late and I have to study a bit more so I'll see you later, ok poopie-doopie.
See you soon,
Andy
PS. You better start thinking of what you want for your christmas gift.
Say hi to mommy, daddy, Jamie, Joanna, Pappou, Puppy, Kitty, the fish, the plants + everyone else for me. See you, poop.
wow ... that's crazy. I really want to share this with him. I will ...
Meanwhile ... I've got plenty to say about stuff gonig on in my life, but, right now I'm not ready to share it ... we'll see. soon ...
