Bonus Blog!!

It's your lucky day, pretties! I had not one, but TWO, thoughts on this fine day, so I decided to blog in honor of them. Two thoughts- one day, what is next!? Three?? Who knows! Anyway, the first thought turned into a rather lengthly antiprologic rant that deserves attention and is posted below this bloglette. (If this page is a blog, this section of the page is deemed a bloglette.) So, don't forget to read (and comment on) that one just down page.

This, however, will be mostly me copying and pasting from an email update I sent to my friends who are studying abroad along with replies written by a hilarious friendlady who remains at Clark with me. This should be interesting, because a) you will get more insight into my deliciously mysterious life and b) Sally Stripes is funny, as are her comments. Boy, it is just bonus day in blog land! (I will not sell out my friend that easily, Sally Stripes is a stage name.)

So, I began by updating my ladygirls about my new fitness and bedroom regime as follows:

"Also, I've begun going to the gym regularly so I'm pretty much at bodybuilder status right now. I've ripped through the seams of all my clothes and when Leah gave me a hug last night before bed, she ended up fracturing both her arms. ...... Hannah- the room is so different! This is a good thing because I just couldnt bare to live in a room designed for two and perpetuate my feeling sorry for myself. I now have a king size bed which nell, jeff, adam c, joey and myself have all already slept in. Pookie (I won't sell you out, either!) and I had a John and Yoko-esque 'love-in' the other day which involved.. well nothing actually. We laid in my bed all day and watched arrested development- with interruptions only to eat, eat more, pee and poople, facebook Clark elitists, and doze a little. Fab! Jbears calls my room the love shack. I call it the palace, because we can't all be so optimistic.."

To which Stripes replied in her update email:

"Thirdly-- The sheer girth of Juliet's bed is reminiscent of a barge canal. Similar to her muscles."

I then moved onto describing the daily grind (pun totally intended, for all of you Clark kids) of being back in Worcester:

" On saturday night, I called very few people to come over and keep us company. Within approximately one and a half hours we were having ourselves a mini party complete with people we had never met before!! Card games were being had in the kitchen while straight up chillin was being had in the living room. We were generally sandwiched in the doorway between the two, marveling over the spontaneous scene and watching nell + leah photoshoot take 14. People generally began slowly dissipating after Trevor and I began duetting to Meatloaf's "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights," I can't imagine why. At this point, Nell/Mickey/Avi/Ian set off towards the Blarney (HA!) while Leah and I primped and prepared for a BRO PARTY! (HAHA!) It wasscary/intimidating/dirty/miserable/and grimey and I think we secretly loved every excruciating minute of it (which was about 8 total before we left.) Nell and Mickey met up with us as we were leaving the party and upon spotting Michael Cera look alike and his friends, I thought it would be a good idea to follow closely behind them. They peed on cars while Ipretended the cars were mine (twice- two seperate cars) and they fell for it both times! I am a riot/flirt extraordinaire! TWO boxes of soy nuggies later, we all went to sleep."

To which Sals replied in her email:

"Fourthly-- Nobody cares, but I am excited about all of my classes so far, despite the fact that most of the Comm ones are populated by the Ugg boot wearin, Coach bag totin', Paris Hilton hair havin' girls that are taking over the school, specifically the bistro, and giving us the stinkeye when we peek into their Bro Parties."

I closed by reminding my friends to tune into my and Nell's radio show that will begin airing (via the internet) next week sometime thanks to the Radio of Clark University or more cleverly, ROCU.

To which Sally Stripes finally replied:

"Fifthly--Somehow Juliet and I ended up on a list of people being auctioned off as dates to raise money for ROCU. This has us both very nervous. I am anticipating the height of awkwardness and sheepishness.
Sixthly-- Speaking of sheep, you should all check out this trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-l93gltkCc
'The Sheep are Revolting! Get Ready for the Violence of the Lambs!' "

And how!
