mittens birches i sit in the computer lab while ashley sits next to me. we are waiting for our next sememster test. if you know ashley you would see that it is a very uncomfortable position for me to be in. she plays with my mittens the way a five year old looks at the world for the first time. it is a strange feeling. i wonder what it would be like living with a disability. once ashley made a cover for her special ed class that said, "Living with a disability". it made me a little sad when i read that. it must be hard knowing enough about yourself to see that you are not like everyone else, but yet you still try to fit in. ashley likes horses. she is very inquisitive. she asks me questions about my plans after graduation and wear i got my mittens and if she can have a senior picture. i feel sorry for her in a way, but not the kind of sorry where i'm going to act like she is normal. is that wrong? 030116 ... silentbob Ashley: Bobby, are we friends?
