My middle name is grace and now I am Grace

Good evening lovely female humans.

finals are over and now I don't know what to do with myself.

I’m in the middle of my last final of my freshman year of college currently. We were supposed to write essays about three of the books we read in Seminar this semester, and being the giant overachiever that I am, I finished mine last night. This final began at 10:45. I took fifteen minutes to edit it, but I can’t leave until quarter to twelve. So here I sit. And instead of staring around at all the kids in my class and wondering why they all look alike and I don’t, or worrying about why Joe wants to see me later today, or getting antsy and wishing I could be back in Merton packing up my room, I thought I’d get a headstart on my blog post for today.

Initially I wrote this post before realizing that Grace did not post on Friday. So now I have to punish her. Which is fun, because I never get to punish anyone. This much power is making me insane. Ahaha.

Anywhoozles.

Dear fellow Bloggers who just aren't as beautiful and smart and talented and gentle and sweet as I am:

    I apologize from the bottom of my very huge heart for not posting on Friday. I was far too busy being literally perfect and not realizing how literally perfect I am to sit down and compose one of my always delightful and encouraging posts.

     Friday morning, I woke up and summoned my animal friends who did my hair and helped me dress properly for the day ahead. Then I went downstairs and whipped up a big batch of cinnamon rolls from scratch and sang along to Michael Buble in the early morning light while my mouse companions cleaned up the kitchen and worshiped the very ground I tread upon. Then I fed my family, helped Lydia with schoolwork, saved a litter of puppies from an angry soccer mom stampede in downtown Hartford, went to my piano lesson, read my Bible for three years, and invented a new element for the periodic table.

    Alas, I was very unproductive, and felt so bad about myself that I simply forgot to post. I am beyond sorry. I promise to make up for forgetting by writing a butt-kicking post for next week. Tata!
