Lists
I'm in a hospital waiting room, and I'm bored. So, here's a list of what's going on in my mind right now.

An Open Letter to Maverick
So, I'm sitting right next to you as I write this, which is really lame, but since when have we been above lameness?
In case you haven't noticed, I'm freaking out about you leaving tomorrow. I'm so incredibly happy for you; it's wonderful to watch you live your dream (my god, that's so cliche.) I know you're going to have a wonderful time and learn a lot, but you already know all of this, and I, being the selfish brat that I am, thought I'd enlighten you on my thoughts on your trip.
1. Oh god. He's actually leaving the country.
2. Jeez. 7 weeks is a long time.
3. I wonder if snails taste good. I mean, apparently they taste like chicken, but they say that about every gross "ethnic" food.
4. Who's Nolwenn Leroy? (Sorry for looking at your screen, but it's very bright.)
5. I'm really not that funny. Seriously. I thought I'd make a funny little list as my way of saying goodbye and spare you from an Alexa freak out, but I can't think of anything funny. I mean, snails? That's the most stereotypical thing about France to comment on. I need to be more original.
6. Now I'm just having an inner dialogue with myself, so I'm going to release the Alexa freak out kraken. I'll try to tame it, but just remember that this is brought out by love.
Holy crap, Mav. You're really leaving me for seven weeks. I honestly don't know what I'm going to do while you're gone. I'm so excited for you, yet I can't help but regret that you're going. It's completely selfish of me to feel this way as this has been your goal for so long and you've worked ridiculously hard for it. I'm just selfish and afraid. I'm afraid that I won't be able to handle not seeing you for 7 weeks. 5 days is the longest we've ever been apart from each other, and I've always taken that for granted. At the same time, I'm curious to see how it effects me. You've always been there to bring me down from an egotistical high . I'm going to miss having someone to annoy. I'm going to miss having someone speak French/German/every other language you know to me until I get so frustrated I want to cry. I'm going to miss you barging into my room and never shutting the door. I'm going to miss hearing you sing French operas and Nicki Minaj in the shower. I'm going to miss you singing "Scotland the Brave" at the kitchen table. I'm going to miss you dancing around the house. I'm going to miss the total monopoly you have over the affairs of your car. I'm going to miss annoying you by chewing my cereal loudly. I'm going to miss making fun of Dragon Age. I'm going to miss quoting TV shows with you. I'm going to miss randomly bursting out into song with you. I'm going to miss you scaring me by just standing in the hallway. I'm going to miss how you make me laugh until I cry. I'm going to miss making you laugh until you cry.
BUT, enough about me. (I bet you never thought you'd hear those words come out of my mouth, did you?)
I'm excited for you to finally experience France like it's meant to be experienced. I'm excited for you to learn every last bit about French that's humanly possible. I'm excited for you to make new friends. I'm excited for you to become engrossed in a culture so rich with a colorful history. I'm excited for you to be able to see all of the art in the Louvre. I'm excited for you to see Harry Potter two days earlier than I get to. I'm excited for you to have the experience of a life time. I'm excited for you to learn about yourself and grow into an even more awesome person.
I know you're going to have the time of your life. You deserve nothing but the best experience. You've worked so hard at mastering French, and it's astounding what all of your hard work is allowing you to do. I love you so much, Maverick. I'd be a completely different person if it weren't for you. You've made me so much more intelligent, and have made me appreciate the world around me. By ruthlessly making fun of me when I make mistakes, you've made me be quick-witted and have made sure I'm always on my toes. You've made me strive to do well in school and to be as intelligent as possible (you know, to keep up with the "Blanton legacy that runs deep within the school.) You've contributed to every part of my personality. Did you know that you're my hero? Everything that I wish to be. I can fly higher than an eagle, for you are the wind beneath my wings.
On that note, I hope you have a wonderful, amazing, fantastic, fun, exciting, educational, and every-other-positive-adjective time in France! I'm going to miss you so much, but the experiences you're going to have will be worth my petty emotions. I can't wait to hear about it. Just be sure to relax and let your true self show because everyone you come in contact with over there should have the chance to get to know you. You're the coolest/funniest person I know, and I can't wait to see you again on July 25th.
Love,
Al
