Oh noes!!!

So, I'm having dinner with my roomies at one of our favorite Mexican restaurants when I just remembered that a few family members of Dragonmarks took a recent trip to Egypt! There was a lull in the conversation and I decided to bring up the recent unrest taking place in said African nation.

I placed it across the room on purpose; that way I'll have to get out of bed. I throw a shoe @ it. This morning was different. I rolled over and felt the sun caress my face like a lover I lost ages ago, heard the beautiful chirp chirp chirp-ing of a mother bird and her young, jumped out of bed, stretched and f
