Dear Ariella,

You complimented me today.

Well, my shirt, technically.

I knew it was something else, though.

You've seen the shirt before.

It was a plain, green short-sleeved plaid one.

You'd never said anything about it before.

Congrats on making the cheer team.

Did you only try out because Fletcher is on the football team.

At least I can still see you on swim team.

I ran out of room on my arms, so I started cutting my thighs.

I don't know why I'm sharing this with you.

Maybe it's so you can understand when you get it.

You'll get it in approximately 38 days. I won't be with you when you get them.

I guess you'll have to read it and weep.

-Lucas
