The Jessica Incident
Every once in a while, I get random emails from people in my past who bump into this site. Today, I heard from two old friends out of the blue, and one directed me to a Robinson Class of 1998 gossip site where I had apparently stirred up a little controversy. I wrote a story in September detailing how I met Eugene by lying to the counselors about a note he wrote to a girl named Jessica. A source named "Andy" claimed that I had a Jessica-bashing website and refused to grow out of my teenage phase. I wrote back to the gossip site and apologized if any feelings were hurt, and attempted to defend my reasons for writing the story. So yeah, whoopie, I made the high school gossip wheel. I wish it had been a more outrageous story, like "Dave is sooo fat now" or "Dave married Eugene", but beggars can't be choosers. Regardless, I got to hear from some old friends (including my 8th grade girlfriend!) that otherwise wouldn't have contacted me, so I'm glad it happened.
I saw The Triplets of Belleville tonight in the theater. It's ridiculously weird, but the animation and art are excellent and the story somehow succeeds for an hour and a half with barely any dialogue. The sprinklings of 3D animation in a 2D film were in good taste and not gimmicky.
