Yah, this is me.

So, there I sat, relaxed in a comfy, lounge chair just outside The Hive at Cedarville University, my lovely college in the boonies of Ohio.  I was writing an Inductive Study of Esther paper for my Old Testament Literature class, and I had been for the last seven hours.  That paper was relentless.  In order to keep my sanity, my memory reminded me that Jenna is participating in this Post-Every-Day-In-November-to-Make-Your-Blog-More-Awesome thing, so I decided to see what she had posted for today.  Alas, she hadn’t posted!  The most recent post only gave me of horrible memories concerning cotton balls, which I had obviously already read … And experienced.

Immediately, I texted Jenna.  A bit later she called me.

“The Kid, I haven’t blogged today,” she informed me.
“So I noticed,” I stated dryly.
“Yah, so, we need to do something about that.”
“Want me to write one for you?”
“Sure.  Make it awesome.”
“Always.”

I snapped my phone shut, not sure if I had actually said goodbye or not.  I think I did.

I continued working on my paper until my head hurt too much, at which point several of my friends rescued me and whisked me away to Stoney Creek Roasters, a small coffee shop in the town of Cedarville.  And here I sit: paper unfinished, mild headache, relaxing.

Of course, I couldn’t just let Jenna give me free reign of her without posting pictures of my friends and I here at Stoney Creek, so we all got behind the webcam of the ‘ol MacBook Pro and clicked a few pictures.

"Everyone, look like you just saw an alien!" Honestly, you guys look way too excited to have just seen an alien ...

Straight faces. Except Kylee looks like she just swallowed something horrible.

"This time everyone look emo." We could be in a band, right?

It was at this point we lost all sanity. Or maybe we were all just trying to look like fish.

Finally, we resorted to desperate measures. Namely Photo Booth.

I don't know. What I do know is that Kylee tried eating my ear in one of the photos, which is why you don't see her in this picture. See Kristi, looking like a bouncer? She making sure I stay safe.

She went for the ear again. And, as you can see, Kristi and I have lost all sanity after writing that Esther paper for over nine hours straight today. (No, it

That’s all I’ve got for you, people.  I should probably get back to that paper now, seeing as how it’s due on Monday and I’ll be busy a lot of tomorrow with some friends from Iowa who are visiting.

In closing, please view this photo, read this post, read all these, and watch this video so you can laugh until you cry, marvel (sort of) at Apple’s newest line, witness the rebellions of sister and brother, and cringe at how horrid Christian music used to be.
