No need to worry, I am very much alive. My French lessons are going very well. He is actually really kind and funny, he seems to be rather down-to-earth for a man with a background like his. For awhile, I was almost expecting him to be a rich bastard like my dearest Aloysius, but I should have known better than to have thought you would really recommend someone like that to me. Not only that, but Mr. Crotchup is very passionate about the French language. I can't say that I was expecting it.
I have to thank you for recommending him to Aloysius and I. At least there's something nice to look at in the house now. And I do look.A lot.
