So, everyone knows that once you select a program in undergrad, you tend to see a lot of the same people in your courses. Well...I was a comm. studies major and English minor. For whatever reason, I started thinking about this guy today (I think his name was Eric. Aaron? Alex? Evan? Something like that...) who was in a lot of my English courses at UW-La Crosse. He was so smart and so well-versed. His writing was impeccable. Anyway, I remember how sometimes, he'd talk about his family. He was married the entire time I knew him, and he had a child. I don't know how I found out, but I learned through other people that his child wasn't actually his. His wife used to be his roommate and she got pregnant by her boyfriend at the time. Apparently, her boyfriend wanted nothing to do with their child and left her, so Eric/Aaron/Alex/Evan/Whoever ended up marrying his roommate and adopted her baby.
Don't ask me why I thought of that, because I have no idea. I just always thought it was so noble, gallant, and romantic.
