Aw, honey

Conversation with a student this week:

Me: ...so, if you want to put a reserve on a book, you just write the title and your name here, and we'll let you know when the book is ready for you to pick up.
Student:  *writes*
Student, looks up at me, eyebrow raised: You can read cursive, can't you?

I assured him that not only can I read cursive, I can actually write it, too.

F-list--can you???

I can read and write in cursive, but I'm not sure about my younger siblings :D

My nephew, who is 13, recently had to sign something and had no idea how to write his name in cursive. He had to learn it and practice a bit so he could do it. Not quite as bad as making an X like they used to do (John Smith, his Mark), but still.
