when i told them about this, they laughed. i told them i wasn’t joking, and they looked at me like i was stupid. but at the end of the day, you have to look at the results. i have a magnificent sandcastle, and they just have a bunch of drawings on blue pieces of paper

well this is embarrassing. looks like it’s time to eat my words a bit. i sure ate a fair amount of sand. i got woken up in the middle of the night when my sandcastle collapsed. i was covered in wet sand from head to toe. who knew that a formidable looking castle could be so easily taken down by a few little waves? i’ve learned a lot from this incident. next time, i’ll build an even bigger sandcastle. but i’ll need quite a lot of sand—perhaps an entire beach’s worth of it
