p.s. gredforge

Okay: collaboration post because we both agreed we need to update the blog...first time in a month. Oops. So I, evie, will be writing in this shade of puce...and sierra will be writing in this other shade of puce. If anyone can tell us which is the true shade of puce, you are very, very wise.

Okay, so we really need to inform you, our loyal followers (anyone out there?), about our hyperlink "gredforge". Quite a back story there. I guess it all begins with Harry Potter--obviously (p.s. this is a hyperlink!!). It was our favorite series back in the good old days of freshman year...still is Sierra's favorite, but my heart has long since transferred its love to another series ;) (Sierra won't let me name it, but I am sure you can hazard a guess).

Hello.
Evie, why do I have to write in this color????? :(
>:(
see hp & the philosopher's stone pg. 202 in american edition published 1998 (love how specific we are?)

Honestly--why the heck did Sierra only type that much?! She did more with the creation of gred than I did...anyway, the point is, gred came about when we decided to do a spoof off Harry Potter. We knew we had to include fred and george, but, as there were only two of us, we could really only have one person for the both of them. So we combined them, you see, into just gred. He had one line in the entire spoof movie: "p.s. I'm gred". Solid line right?

Gred was so skilled at reciting his one line he acquired instant fame.  He is now world famous.  Here are some of his traits and special skillz (oh wait, he is skilled at everything.... hmmmm how should I rephrase here are his MOST OUTSTANDING abilities):

~Pond cleaning
~Pole vaulting (averages 200 feet)
~Cake baking
~Triangle section leader in marching band
~He is really fast
~Super skinny--he can hide really well (for example, easily hides behind the skinniest trees.. forge on the other hand...........)
~He also has special chips to give him energy.  One small chip contains 5000 calories.  He once gave these chips to Coyla.... not a good ending.

There is also Forge.

Hmmm....Sierra definitely skipped some important information regarding gred's growing existence....we basically thought his one single line was so hilarious that we kept making up the most ridiculous things about him. He became a sort of imaginary friend--except not always on friendly terms. We added his brother, forge, and friends, coyla, gabbe, and coyle (siblings). We basically just had a bunch of imaginary people we talked about. It is incredibly bizarre-sounding--and really is--but it is so much fun :). In fact, we talked about him so much around some of our other friends that we confused several people into believing that he was a real person. Of course, we clarified for them...but we kept up his legacy with some of our good buddies (pole-vaulting times...oh man).

To get a visual, Gred has red hair and freckles.

It should also be noted Forge is very good at making pencils but has no other abilities.  He just sits in his room making pencils all day.  He is jealous of Gred.  Of course, who wouldn't be jealous of such a classy, talented and charming individual?

So there. Now you know why our hyperlink is "gredforge". Good times.

Bye.
