Day 18 (19 really, cuz yesterday blogger sucked.)

Well, there's a lot to catch everyone up on! First, a tribute to Erin's experiences in Nebraska.


Made mostly by Gros.

Anyways, yesterday was very exciting. Let's just say Gros went on a date with Jack Sparrow. She came in afterwards grinning ear to ear and refusing to divulge any details. Beth worked. And was sick. Lame.

Beth and Gros also had cleaning checks! With Grosland's upcoming date and Beth's... being sick... it was pretty stressful. They spent several hours scrubbing anxiously at what seemed never-before-cleaned scum. After much cleaning and hard work and noxious chemicals, they finally submitted to the will of the check. Beth went to work and Gros nervously awaited their arrival.

Which was about an hour late.

And lasted a good 2 minutes.

Needless to say, they passed! And Gros was free to go on her date.

Anyways, now we've caught up to today (Friday). Grosland was sick of hanging around the apartment (like the jobless wretch that she is) and so she grabbed a book and headed out the door. She has a tendency to read while she's walking, so her nose was buried deep in the pages of The Maze Runner as she crossed the street. She therefore neglected to notice that a very large truck was speeding like death towards her . . . .

She glanced up too late - with enough time to realize she was about to die, but not enough time to prevent it. There wasn't even time to scream.

But then suddenly she was shoved out of the way of the oncoming vehicle. She fell backwards onto the grass, her book flying out of her hand. There was a screech of metal on metal, and a manly roar, and then a strange silence. She looked up and saw her rescuer.

He was breathing heavily, standing with his feet apart and his arms extended - she saw that three metal claws protruded from each of his hands. The truck lay in pieces all around him, a confused BYU student sitting in the rubble gawking at the pair of them.

Wolverine looked over at Grosland. Their eyes met. He smiled.

Can I just say, I'm eager for Erin to get back just so I can know what's really going on.
