fh_alumniDon't ask Jaye while she was still in class on a Friday afternoon. She was going to have to schedule better next semester. And while she was waiting for either class or the world to end, she got on her laptop- so glad she could use that, by the way- to send a little E-mail.

In class. May start to poke eyeballs out due to boredom. Or fall asleep, start snoring and get made fun of. Have lost ability to use pronouns or syntax correctly. May have turned 'syntax' into a verb.
Fix this.

[Yeah, I'm bored. If Jaye knows you and you think you would have gotten this, you did.]

It's sunny and warm and I have the beach. What more can a girl ask for? Besides better sunscreen.

Hi Jaye!
At least you're just bored. I am trying to study, and THE FRENCH INVENTED AN ENTIRELY NEW CATEGORY OF VERB TENSES, JUST TO TORTURE ME.
(I really needed to shout to say that.)
Also, I am a blonde again. I'm going to be soooo incognito for the wedding.
How's L.A.? New York is feeling fairly awesome these days.

Damn French. I'd tell you you should protest them, but their fries are so good.
You're blonde again? You were blonde before? Did I miss this?
LA's okay. Sunny. Warm. I'm still getting lost on this stupid campus. One day I'm just going to camp out under the Bruin Bear and see if anyone is nice enough to walk me where I need to go. Why's New York so awesome?

And their bread! And brie! And champagne!
If I only needed to know enough French to order at Chez Fancypants, I'd be so completely set. Too bad I can't pass this stupid class that way.
>You're blonde again? You were blonde before? Did I miss this?
I forget you guys never saw my real color. Under the red? It's dark blonde. Think I should dye it back? I mean, I was ready for the change, but now I'm worried no one will recognize me. My roommate already made that mistake and tried to brain me with her women's studies text.
>One day I'm just going to camp out under the Bruin Bear and see if anyone is nice enough to walk me where I need to go. Why's New York so awesome?
What's a Bruin Bear? I'm picturing a very large stuffed animal.
New York's awesome because it is finally a sunny day, and I got a promotion at work (so instead of making coffee, I get to boss around people who make coffee. I am awesome.), and I got a poem in the lit mag, and there are only, like, three freshmen in the thing. I'll mail you a copy.

Send me a picture, I'll tell you if it's bad. Besides, remember that "incongnito" means "don't have to deal with people you hate".
>What's a Bruin Bear? I'm picturing a very large stuffed animal.
Sort of, except not. It's a giant metal bear in the middle of campus. Don't touch it on hot days, not even on a dare.
(I was the darer, not the daree.)

And that's officially both the strangest and best question I've been asked today, and the answer is no. Mainly because I get bored and "la la la hello restraining order" before we start considering allergy treatments.

Now I'm wondering if I need to start saving money for your bail. Unless you're the one getting the restraining order, and then I'm reminded that I never taught you how to shoot a gun.
Wow, that was a scary sentence to type. Let's not do that again.
Boredom's not good, no. I find blowing things up helps.
Not the guy. DO NOT BLOW UP THE GUY.
Oh, speaking of (sorta), are you going to Rory and Anakin's wedding?

NO ONE IS GETTING RESTRAINING ORDERS AGAINST ME. (Okay, there was that one guy, but it was animal-related and totally not my fault.)
I'm so worried about how you went from DO NOT BLOW UP THE GUY to the wedding. And yeah, I'm going. Rory's planning on hooking me up with her friend Marty who is not the Marty we know. ...A pants allergy might explain him, actually.

Animal-related? Do I want to know? Of course I do. But can you tell me, or is there a court thing?
Hello, have you met Anakin? Makes sense to me.
*eyes* I seem to have missed something. Rory knows a second Marty? Did he used to kill people, too?
Also, I hope you know that I never have these conversations with anyone but you.

There's not much to tell. Had to sort of stalk one guy to get the lion to stfu already, and he didn't take too kindly to it. I still say, if you're in a guy's backyard with a pair of binoculars, maybe there's a good non-stalkery reason for it.
Yeah, there's a second Marty. And I doubt he was much into the killing. Apparently there was hall nakedness but Rory DID NOT LOOK REALLY.
And thank you?

I'm going to assign you a Scifi movie plot and say it happened to you, you know. From now on I'll only believe that you had to use a super sonic sekrit plane to turn back time to stop a meteor from hitting us. Or something.
On a college campus no less. I should come out and do that on a Saturday night when everyone's really wasted. I'll pay next semester's tuition.

Been there, done that, own the DVDs. Check out Wormhole X-treme sometime and take out the Hollywood parts. Also, the plane and meteor thing would do nothing but create a paradox that could tear apart the fabric of the universe.
Still not as bad as using an iBook and a computer virus to take out an entire race of aliens, though. I can't even get an Apple to talk to a PC with any reliability, and that's to say nothing of trying to interface with a more complex and differently-based scientific system.
