I'm not exactly a revolutionary

I told Lyle that I was lost and confused. He looked at me funny, then he told me "I'll make you a map." He took out a sheet of paper and I watched as he drew the room carefully. He pointed to the exit, said, "There, are you still lost and confused?"
"No," I told him, "I'm good now. Thank you, I'll cherish it forever."
Sometimes I feel the need to be tall. Ever since I was little I was able to walk high on my toes, like a ballerina in pointe shoes. It was something of a phenomenon to the girls at gym, who all tried to copy me once I showed them one day. There's days where I just want to stand taller, and so I go up on toe and walk around like that the whole day. "Doesn't it hurt?" everyone asks. I don't see why it would. It makes me stand tall.
Rob told us in skytime he'd swum with dolphins once, but he didn't really remember it. "When was this?" a girl asked. "Oh, three years ago or so." "Three years?" She tutted, shook her head. " Boy, if you can't remember swimming with dolphins, who knows what you're gonna forget next."
"Yeah," giggled another one, "Next thing you know you'll be forgetting your first time."
I felt sort of crooked today in T&T. I hope it's not a foreshadowing of things to come at the meet. I still can't connect my brauni, and I've only got tomorrow to work on it. I guess today was just an all-around crooked day.
