A Short Story for Finals Week

Because Emily wanted a story. And because we both got left behind this weekend while the others went to New York:
Once upon a time there were six girls and they were all good friends and loved each other very much. But then four of the girls went to New York City without the other two. And the two who were at home were very sad.

While their friends were gone, the other two girls were writing papers. And two amazing (interesting, attractive, godly) men showed up (one at each of their doors). And they all realized they wanted to go to Key West.

So they ran away and eloped. And the two dudes were really rich, but they didn't want to live extravagant lifestyles. So each couple bought a little old-fashioned bungalow house (within easy walking distance of each other but each on plenty of land) on the central California coast. And they spent their days talking and walking in the countryside and traveling. And they all wrote poetry and short stories.

And the girls who went to New York were stuck working on Capitol Hill for the rest of their lives.

The End.
