Teenagers are strange.
My 15-year-old stepdaughter has her friend from Tennessee spending the weekend here. They haven't seen each other in a year.

You know what they're spending the weekend doing? Updating their MySpace pages. Really: they're taking walks, taking pictures of themselves going on those walks, and then posting the pictures to their accounts.

Do they teach irony in school anymore? :crazy:

1. That habit continues into the 20s from what I've seen.
Except instead of taking pictures while on walks, twenty-something girls take pictures at bars and post them on Facebook instead of MySpace.

I mean, they are taking walks, so that means they are getting exercise.............

I think back on my years as a teenager and pray to whatever that my son is not as wild as I was when he reaches those crazy years.
