Fun Sans Sun

My best friend Callie was staying in New Bern for a few days, and called me up yesterday to invite me and my sister to the beach. Did I want to go? Hell yes! I had a great time with Callie and her family! When we got to the beach, the waves were perfect! I really wish that I had thought to bring some boogie boards, but what's done is done said the Goblin King, or was it what's said is said? Anyway, I was able to ride the waves up to the shore through some complicated technique of diving infront of a wave at the right moment before it crests and then letting the raw power of the ocean carry me to shore - I really don't understand the mechanism, but it sure was fun! The sun was hidden by a fine layer of stratus clouds, but the lack of impending rain or thunderstorms made that fact a happy occurence. I can't believe how much I missed Callie this summer! We had so much fun just talking and catching up! Callie is my roommate as well, so I'm happy to say that we will be seeing eachother very soon, in less than two weeks when we go back to school. I think I've embarrased Callie enough, so I'll conclude by mentioning that I had a perfect afternoon yesterday and that I've never had so much fun at the beach.

Awww, this gave me such a warm fuzzy feeling. Just like my lovely new Captain Jack Sparrow fleece throw!! Your riddle was amazing. I read it aloud so that everyone could help figure it out, and we had it narrowed down to a blanket with a guy on it haha. Anyway, I had an amazing time seeing you, I just wish it could've lasted longer!! Only 10 days until we'll both be back in 202C!
