Alkkkkkffffrrred
It’s been a while and working around the house you think alot about future blogs. So I’ve decided to finally blog. Might as well be about a kid who was around for a month.
Alfred, or in french: Alkkkkkffffrrred (you have to dry-heave half way thru it for the full effect).
Well, he’s been gone a week and my evaluation is for the most part it was nice having a little yet bigger brother around. Miles never was into sports so he would read or hop on a computer while I’d go out and shoot hoops for hours as a youth. Alfred was a pretty athletic kid and would always be up for sports activities. So it was a change for me.
But he was cool. He had a much stronger personality than Camille and seemed kind of attached to me specifically. So it was nice having a “buddy” like that, too. It was also sometimes creepy, for example:
First day he was here I was laying in bed watching TV and he comes into my room, sits down on the bed I’m laying in and just starts watching TV with me.
Semi-creepy but definately not Camille-esque.
He was also kind of a whiney kid. But thank God one characteristic not shared with Camille was political … voice I guess. Me and Camille talked politics and I had to bite my tongue for most of it while she ripped into the USA. The most I got from Alfred was after my joking boast of the USA he mentioned that France receives more tourist dollars than the USA and that the Euro is currently better than the US dollar and that “he iz da best”.
I envied his fearlessness…and his height. He’s gonna be a big dude, thats for sure. Quite the opposite of a Rausch.
He did keep my from my work. Not that he picked me up and placed me in front of my computer or anything, but that he made any temptation that much closer to being accepted. I have a tough enough time staying out of the house for like a glass of water or I need to contact someone or something about someting that could wait but “I’ll forget about it”. And now there’s Freddy playing basketball or wanting me to play AOM. (Thank God he learned AOM and didn’t say “Age of Mythology” everytime).
As insensitive as it sounds, I probably won’t miss him much because Camille was never annoying being as quiet as she was. But Alfred had his moments that you’d be like “I just wish you were American so I could explain this in just a few seconds”
Well his big comments were:
“No, itiz ok”
“I am ze best”
“TITAN”
“HEYYYYYY’
That Freddy.
