Electric Lib

It's Almost Friday!!

Well, I guess my dad really knows me well. He sent me this article about Spears and her recent flop performance at the VMA's that has gained almost more attention for her apperance, big surprise. Dad said this article would spare me from having to write my own, and it's true, although it's really only inspired yet another rant. But, just read the article.

In completely unrelated and funny news, my dry school reading surprised me with a (probably) unintended hilarious line. Please read.. and tell me she didn't do write this on purpose:

"Recounting the plot of Jane Eyre is not recommended, but briefly summarizing the events of The Death of Felicity Taverner, by the less wel-known write Mary Butts, would be considered helpful (unless the audience were exclusively made up of Butts scholars)" (Keen, 83).

Okay, Butts scholars? It's funny. I know at least Martha and Josh are slightly amused. Well good, now that I've added to Mary Butts' lifetime regret of her name, I can move on.

I planned to end the entry at this point, but what the hell? Now that I've got your attention.... I think Greg Gerdell (high school ski team coach) would be very proud of Kate and me. Although we mysteriously lacked the ability to put forth effort or any physical abilities during the winter months of high school (there were vending machines that had to be tended to and candy that had to be eaten... plus we 'stretched' in the weight room...), we somehow have super fabulous running abilities now. We ran roughly four miles yesterday (partly because we missed the turn... and ran to South Burlington...) and today we could barely walk... but we went again! This time with Tyler who sprinted back and forth or randomly broke into dance... I guess our pace wasn't fast enough... But yes, it was fabulous. We looked like very typical, spoiled college students too, all three of us running with our iPods. Perhaps I'll do a post on that later... But for now, I must rest my tired legs. Farethewell!

I Belong in Saturday Morning Cartoons...

So here's a good story for the kiddos, I wake up this morning at 10:00 exactly and it only takes a milisecond to realize that I just slept through my first class..... Not just the first class of the day, but first college class EVER. Yup, that's right, didn't miss a single class last year. So yea.... I curse myself, scramble out of bed, throw on some jeans, put my hair up and leave. I made it to my second class right on time. So I'm thinking "alright, this isn't so bad, I don't like Spanish anyways (the class I missed)." I have a great session in my English class and then run to the bathroom before heading to the next one. Look in the mirror and... GOOD LIB... blue ink on the side of my face says "Return book".... That's why you shouldn't write notes on your hands before you go to sleep. I try to wash it off, and it fades about 75%.. but I have to run to the next class. Maybe I can just hide in the next class and then run back to my room... Not so much when you're in a THEATRE class. Yup, did a little skit in my nasty pajama shirt and blue inked face. Good times as an over-tired college student. But somehow, I was in a shockingly good mood today, so.. No problemo.
