Confession 136

One time, Heather Angela Hawks and I decided to make giant post cards for our missionary friends. We made them out of posterboard paper, and did up the backs to look like a giant version of what you'd normally see on a postcard. We had lots of friends write messages in the massage space, and stuck tons of stamps in the stamp square. Then it came time for the fronts. One elder got Dr. Seuss creatures. Another got VW vans cut out of a magazine. The final elder got, well... for some reason Heather had lots and lots of pictures of the third Elder (pre-mission) trying on all of her clothes one day. So we blew them up way big and mailed them to his address. What we didn't realize was that the address we had was his mission office, not where he lived. His mission president did NOT enjoy receiving giant pictures of one of his elders dressed in drag, replete with Heather's sexual innuendoes on the back. Elder H. was called into the mission office for a very serious talk, and was made a junior companion again. He hasn't even talked to us since he got back.

I think she's talked to him, but that it was an awkward. He's also having a kid, I've heard. Isn't that crazy?

Oh, what do you know about the time he broke both of his legs at the same time? His cousin told me.. but she didn't know all the details. When I heard it, it sounded like robbit dirt.

I meant to say an awkward get-together.

Twas an awful board. Almost as naughty as your mind and deeds. ha.

Hmm... do you think if we counted up the lives you've inadvertently destroyed in the course of your capers, do you think we could fill up a 6-gallon bucket of salsa, or just one of those little 16oz cups? I think that would be a fun Sunday activity!

Word on the street is she's pissed that you use her real full name on the internet. Esoteric nicknames are pretty safe, though not necessarily harmless..

I know you don't know me, but I think I LOVE you.


Or at least your blog.
I got here from Steph's blog, so, you are someone she knows and I may ask her.
