my dearest readers,

as most of you know, michelle won last year's award for America's best blogger.
her dedication, amount of blogs she contributes to, and the naturally ardent
passion she has with following blogs qualified her in the top 5 bloggers in the nation.

This of course, is a joke.
But today is her birthday, and I believe it is appropriate
to leak that this blog exists as a beautiful and unique birthday gift.

So. be on the look out for a new and dedicated blogger.
This may just put this blog in the big leagues, folks.

Speaking of... Sox won the big game opening day.
And the yankees lost, way to go sox. You're in first.
Even if they didn't win, the yankees lost.
But we won. So Boston is smiling.

Happy birthday Michelle.

i cant spell

siobahns name.
i dont even know if thats right.
shiiiooobannnnveb is how it is in my phone.
i guess thats kind of selfish of me not to learn how to spell her name.
i apologize for my rude behavior, my dear friend and new reader of the gossip blog.

in other related news,
i skunked kyle today in cribbage. aka,
i kicked his booty real bad. It's embarrassing, really.
I am now allowed to make jokes about skunks for the next few weeks.

No issue this week. oh drama.

Michelle's hair looked really pretty today all curly. way to go chief.

And MikeV, thanks for leaving your class (that i should have been in)
to figure out my CD-Photo dilemma. you're a real pal.

We saw the Mohlers today and I got to give Miriam the photos
from all the various encounters we've had--she seemed really thankful
and I hope they like the photos.

I hope to all those who read this that my level of intelligence does
not drop, or in no way does this blog indicate the type of writing I do
or not do. This blog is a silly outlet of pure joy that I like to share with
others in regards to the Chimes and the Chimes alone.

Red Sox opening day got postponed til tomorrow at 4:05.
total bummer, but rain will do that.

It's supposed to rain tuesday and wednesday.
glorious, some would say.

Juliana: congrats. you da woman.

Michael: thanks for letting me use your lamp, that you made with your hands. piece by piece.

vegas and london and such

so we went to vegas. a bunch of us.
some pretty hardcore journalism went down.

also,
we all got into london.
one of the best days. today. thursday.
(weeeeell now friday)

but yes.
mike, katie, kelsey, sarah sundee, and myself. all chimesies...
off to London in the fall.
chimes should take a field trip?
to london? good plan.

i had lunch with michelle for the first time.
SHE IS AWESOME. i really like her.
it made me sad it was our first time
hanging out one-on-one.
NONETHELESS, she was really encouraging
and a good listener.
way to go, chief.

rachelle i hope you are doing well
in the abroad world of DC!

katie mac,
lets go to chick fil a soon.

emily, cut back on eagles!

and michael,
stop watching those soap operas
in the office about LA/the world
coming to an end.
i think i saw tears well up TWICE
in the office today.

also,
its missions.
and theres no chimes.

it is

oh

so

sad.

and just to clarify,
i did NOT flirt or attempt to flirt
with the ask axel muscle guy.
he is a yankees fan.
therefore, it is my duty
to harass him.

i could be bias

but emily is a good
person to have around
in the chimes office.

last night we went
to eagles 4 times
with a different chimes person.
i dont know if she did anything,
but she certainly was good company
to those four people.

the apprentices have
been doing awesome.

its almost like a mini/cute battle
between them and everyone else.
almost like a race.

almost like star wars,
when they race.

i love star wars.

its raining a lot.

so much.
so much rain.
the rain in spain.
stays mainly in the... something.

sickness is going around.
everyone eat lots of oranges and vitamin C.
today i shared my orange with Sam.
i hope i didn't get him sick
but the vitamin C from the orange would
deflect the sickness, and his sick status
would become neutral once again.
also i want sams bag. really bad.
i told him to put it in his will in my name.
i dont think he found that funny,
but i did get a pity laugh.

cats are everywhere on campus.
good thing they're kind of cute.
too bad im allergic.

deadline was not met last week.
i have a few speculations as to the reasoning
behind this fault.

katie mac gave me sour watermelon.
for no reason.
she is a good friend.

lots of

new people.
all really cool.

lots of chimes hanging out,
outside of the office.
its been oh so nice.

big cat story this week.
breaking news for sure.

kyle gave some weird girl
a piece of his hair! it was gross.

school of education opening tomorrow.
and that dash around metzger.

la la la

hope everyone had a good valentines day.
