Charlie Brown

I was watching the Charlie Brown Valentine's movie today on TV, and it was probably the most hilarious thing I've seen lately. Did you ever notice how he has to narrate everything? For example, while lying in his bed late at night, "I think tomorrow I'll right out and tell that little red hair girl that I love her. And then I'll give her a big hug. And then I'll bungee jump from the moon."
BUT Schroeder is my absolute favorite. If falling in love with cartoons was normal, I'd have to choose Schroeder. [along with Aladdin, Dmitri (Anastasia) and Shang (Mulan)] He's so quiet and brooding. Every time Lucy so much as talks to him, he shuts her down. He's always calm and always has something thoughtful and intelligent to say (when he speaks). Charlie Brown is his bff and Charlie is the one who actually introduced him to the toy piano (which sometimes sounds like a toy piano, and sometimes sounds like a grand piano) He's the catcher on the baseball team, and is very touchy on who is allowed to lean on his piano. And the way he plays the piano! I actually own the cd of his greatest pieces. Beethoven is his #1 hero, like Lang Lang is mine: "The only time Schroeder accepted a gift from Lucy was when she gave him a sketch of Beethoven--she was then shocked to find he already had a gigantic wall-size portrait of Beethoven hanging in his room."
Yes.
I know, it's a cartoon.
But still...

I love him.
