<p>I've known these people&nbsp;since I wondered what it would be like to be grown up.&nbsp; From the left:</p>
<p>Jennifer: Met in 1994. It was Jennifer's 17th birtday, and I was dating her best friend. We sang happy birthday to her at her doorstep.&nbsp; I think I've been at most of&nbsp;Jennifer's birthdays since then as well.&nbsp; And yes, I do remember thinking: Hey that chick is pretty cute.</p>
<p>Earnest: Met in 1991. We were shooting this PSA about teen drinking.&nbsp; We used my Grandma's VHS camcorder. Edited in camera, I'm pretty sure.&nbsp; Funny that even then we were making movies about helping people.</p>
<p>Whitney: Met in 1993. I don't remember exactly how, but I know it would have been in the greenroom or the scene shop&nbsp;in theatre.&nbsp; We became friends pretty quickly, all of us driving around town doing wild and rebelious things like sneaking out to see plays. Going to the downtown library.&nbsp;</p>]]></content></entry><entry><title>Songlet: Growin' Up</title><category term="Challenge"/><category term="Challenge004"/><category term="Music"/><category term="Writing"/><category term="grow up"/><category term="mtv"/><category term="songwriting"/><id>http://www.gandolervy.com/challenges/2010/3/17/songlet-growin-up.html</id><link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.gandolervy.com/challenges/2010/3/17/songlet-growin-up.html"/><author><name>Marissa</name></author><published>2010-03-17T13:36:46Z</published><updated>2010-03-17T13:36:46Z</updated><content type="html" xml:lang="en-US"><![CDATA[<p>I wanted to write a whole song but being a single parent while Geoff is off <a href="http://www.geofflerer/journal">gallivanting in Austin</a> has made it difficult to find time to write. &nbsp;But I have some lyrics to share:</p>

<blockquote>There's a series of explanations<br /> a host of holy things<br /> that will get right to the bottom<br /> of our adolescent dreams<br /> when you're staring out the window<br /> but nothings looking back your way<br /> you gotta get up, react move along<br /> before you chose to stay<br /></blockquote>
