I hate writing in cursive. In elementary school they told us that we had to learn to write in cursive at all times because that's the only way they would let you write in middle school. Turned out, they lied. And I promptly rejected cursive handwriting for regular printing.

However, I've come to realize that writing something in cursive automatically gives it a feminine, grown up touch. You could write "buy toilet paper" in cursive, and it would look far more elogent and important than printing it. But my cursive has always looked terrible. It was barely legible and it hurts my hand to write that way, so I was happy to return to printing. Mind you, I still sign my name in cursive. It just looks more legit. But I realize that anything I write will at best appear "cute" or "neat." Never grown up and feminine. But that's just something I've learned to live with.

On to a different topic. We're moving this weekend. If you have a hankering to lift things and show off your muscles, come help us. We'll repay you with our admiration and maybe some sort of food. There now. That should have people lining up at the door.
