Ethan:
Valentine’s Day activities ruled the school
today; and some of our friends are running out of jokes and gags; so they’re
going to be glad that this holiday will be past us by the end of the week.
Ehlana and I were at the lab after school
again today; and we’ll put in the extra time now before taking the end of the
week off for Valentine’s Day and then the weekend. We were late for dinner; worked and studied
in the office after that; and now I’m ready to go to sleep – so I will.
Ethan – out!

Ehlana:
Ethan’s left the Cassie-update to me
because he probably doesn’t want to write anything nasty about the person who
was being bad today and making our big sister very mad.
I don’t have a problem with doing that instead!
;^)
Philippe proved that he is clueless – at least
when it comes to Cassie. He apparently
thought that she’d be charmed and amused by his ridiculous story of a
dream-nightmare about her and how he was powerless to save Cassie – the girl of
his dreams – from a horrible future with a loser of a guy she was going to
foolishly marry instead of being with him – the man she was meant to spend the
rest of her life with instead.
That was dumb – especially just days after
she got engaged to Michael. Dumber was
grabbing her and trying to force her to stay when she explained how stupid it
was to be so insulting to her fiancée and inappropriate toward her. It’s totally wrong of me to like the part of
this story where she used a bit of her Tai Chi training to force him to let go –
and then put him face-down in the snow.
He had been warned several times before to stop touching or grabbing
her, though, so I’d say he had it coming to him – and then some. He did leave her alone for the rest of today,
but Cassie is sure it isn’t over with him; and he’ll likely keep bugging her –
probably not long after he starts forgetting how much it hurt to get knocked
down by a girl.
I’m not going to go on and on about this,
but I do want to add that there is something wrong in our country when even the
supposedly-best-and-brightest teens at our colleges have Neanderthal social and
emotional issues. Note to all guys like
Philippe – it is no longer socially-acceptable to club the girl you like over
the head and then take her home to your cave.
Deal with it!
Philippe ought to be glad of that, since if
we were living in those times; he probably wouldn’t like to find out what
Michael-the-caveman might do to him for trying to club ‘his’ girl.
Then again, if Cassie had been alive back
then; I seriously-doubt that we’d have the same stories about cavemen at all.
I’ll leave you with that mental picture to
have fun imagining; wrap up this little rant-update; and go get some sleep now
too.
This is Ehlana Proctor; coming to you live
from what is now my past!
