While Waiting...

[x_maker]

For a backwards, butt-end of civilization example of a town, this place really isn't too bad. I can get a good enough cellular signal on the PDA to network out, so waiting for Dani to finish all her legal stuff here isn't the torture it seemed at first.

Next semester's schedule looks... wait. This is not the schedule I saw before I left. Mr. Summers? Why am I taking Phys. Ed? I didn't sign up for Phys. Ed. And why is there no teacher listed? Is this a joke?

And it appears I've been transferred up into Mr. Dayspring's history class. AND humanities? AND English composition? AND Music 201? Not a practical class to be seen! Well, except for the Flight class with Mr. al-Rashid. Looking forward to that one.

Dr. McCoy, PLEASE tell me that you've got something interesting for my independent science work.

We had to when I was in middle school, and it blew. Big square do-si-do chunks everywhere. Not fun, totally lame and why do people make us learn that stupid stuff for?

You take the dance class? Isn't that kinda, you know, for girls?

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

You think that's bad? The guy they got to teach square dancing in my middle school was some leftover hippie who took a principled stand against the concept of deodorant.

And yeah, I take dance class. I get class credit for watching my girlfriend move. You've seen my girlfriend, right?

Duuuuuude. People who don't shower... Ugh. I'm all for people not smelling like whatever stupid trendy stinky stuff they're buying at the mall, but not showering is not cool at all.

See, if I tell you're girlfriend's hot, then I run the risk of being thrown into the lake. If I don't, then I ... run the risk of being thrown into the lake.

Dance class is still for girls and wusses. I mean, -christ-, man. Ramsey takes that. I've seen him.

It's too cold to throw people in the lake. Besides, I have no reason to get jealous. :)

Seriously, though, dude, try and get over this wusses thing. Girls really like to dance, and if you can dance with them, that puts you a good three steps ahead of all the other guys who think dancing is for wusses.

Besides, Alison and Kurt teach the class, and I think they're physically incapable of teaching a class that isn't fun.

Which still, you know, puts me about 85 thousand steps behind the guys without claws and fangs.

I'm not taking any classes where I have to listen to Ramsey and his girlfriend coo at each other in French. Its disgusting.

Any other school in the country, maybe. Here, you're like, only in maybe the fortieth percentile of funny-looking. If funny-looking were an SAT test, you wouldn't even be getting into community college, man.

Doug and Angie do get kinda saccharine after a while, though, I will give you that. 'Course, in dance class I don't notice it so much, given I'm probably being just as disgusting.

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

I object. Saccharine is false and foul.

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

Sugary? Fructosesque?

HEY!

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

HEY! Flag on the play!

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

Claws and fangs aren't so bad.

Or fur.

Dance class is still for girls and wusses.

Dude, so not. Professional male dancers are buff and spend as much time working out as professional sports players, often more.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Wait, you-Jamie are dating Kitty, right? Computers and brains and all that genius stuff Kitty?

Interesting.

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I still hardly believe it myself some days. :)

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Curious. I wonder if it's something in the water. Remind me to start drinking more soda.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Dude? There's something in the water that makes cute girls date guys here? Why wouldn't you want that?

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

Ever hear the phrase "Don't cross the streams"?

[x-kitten.livejournal.com]

?

I can't figure out if you think that's a good thing or a bad thing. Not that it matters, cause it's none of your business, but...

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

It's an interesting thing. And it's probably best that I withhold commentary any further.

[x-kitten.livejournal.com]

On the whole, yes, that probably is best.

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

Ceilidh dancing is great, though. Not that I've had a chance to do it except in school....

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Ceil... that's not even a WORD, Rahne! That's random letters!

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

'Tis a word. Promise.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Is that the silly stompy dancing, or is that Irish?

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

The...? There is occasional stomping, but if you mean Riverdance, that's not it.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Yes, that. I don't -get- Riverdance. Its confusing.
