sms.

As many of you know, I use other people's alleged moral failings to justify my own mediocrity. That's Bonnie's diagnosis, at least. Whatever.

It's dirty. It's filthy. It's wrong.. and I like it.

Contrary to popular belief, I am not the worst person alive. Deep breaths, people. I know. It took me aback too. I like jokes. Not weapons. Not genocide. Not raw tomatoes. Just jokes. That's all.

I can see where one would get the idea that my remarks are a bit harsh, or as my teachers would say, "uncalled for," but one would be wrong. I am awesome. Sorry, one. Thanks for playing.

Wait. First. Really though. Does anyone understand how much wrath I get for things that I say? Granted, the majority of said wrath is just facial flinches, cringes, eye rolls and the always enjoyable, "Really, Stephanie?" ..but still. Wrath nevertheless. I suppose I keep you wrath-givers around to keep me in check or to serve as some sort of moral conscience. Sometimes it's just a buzzkill though.

I've got seven problems.. and you're five of them.

I'm joking. Totally just joking. Totally. See? There you go crying again. I'm sorry. I guess I just didn't realize we were against the whole stating the blatantly obvious thing. Moving on.

You think I am harsh? Meet the people I spend my time with.

I get by with a little help from my friends.

God, I'm so original. Allow me to brush my shoulders off. And done.

As I watched Milkshake spread his proprietary scent around his nesting site before class began, I decided to text every single person that I know in hopes of outside entertainment. I do this a lot. Those of you who fall victim to this each and every time, I am sorry. Not so sorry that I plan on stopping though. Only because you're doing so great. So, so great. Thumbs way up.

After mass texting out variations of the sweet command, "Entertain me," I began to reap benefits of awesomeness. After about the sixth text message, though, I realized something.

Friends. Dear, dear friends. My parents would so not let me be friends with you if we they were still setting up my play-dates and wiping my bottom. Oh, high school. Them were some good years.

I didn't ask for cruel remarks. I didn't ask for demeaning or harsh critiques of innocent bystanders. I asked for entertainment.

Entertainment, I received.

Responses to my request follow. Most are edited and condensed due to terrible grammar, even more terrible spelling, continuous conversation and the fact that I still want my family to love me if they read this.

- How much cleavage is too much cleavage when you have to walk by the brickyard preacher on the way to class? I'm at the Atrium, but I think I might skip.
