Aaron and I were walking past the bargain movie bin at our local Walmart and I noticed The Breakfast Club. This sparked the following realization:
Me: That's a funny movie.
Aaron: Mhm.
Me: Who were you?
Aaron: ahhh... (trying to ignore my question)
Me: Come on Aaron. Which one?
Aaron: I don't know.
Me: Were you the nerd kid? Is that why you don't want to talk about it?
Aaron: No! I wasn't the nerd kid.
Me: It's ok if you were the nerd kid. I liked him. He was funny.
Aaron: I wasn't the nerd kid. I was the jock.
Me: No...it's fine if you were the nerd.
Aaron: I wasn't the nerd. I was the jock with more than meets the eyes.
Me: Alright I guess I can see that.
Aaron: Who were you?
Me: I think it's pretty obvious.
Aaron thinking.
Me: I wasn't Molly Ringwald's character so .....
Aaron: Oh. Yeah. That fits.
Me: Yah, dandruff girl.
Aaron: So we were meant to be together.
I had actually forgotten that the jock and odd girl ended up together, but so it was. John Hughes would be so proud of us.

You should know that I still blog-stalk you from time to time. I have made it a goal to read all of the poems you post and then read some analysis about it. I figure a poem a month (or however often you post them) will give me some literary points from the literary gods.
Reuben is adorable. It looks like he has provided you with some good adventures.
That last comment was from Sarah, not Landon.
Ha! Good stuff! word verif is deep (even though I have no thoughts as to what it means): eparici, I just liked it
FYI, Ed and I would be the same two people. Also meant to be together.
It's tough when they only give you two girl types to choose from. If you're not Molly you're the other one by default. But in my case it wasn't too far off the mark. Even so, I never would have guessed I'd marry the jock.
