Fort of Awesome

   On Pinterest a few weeks back, I came across a list of indoor activities to do with young children. As I read the list, I was became increasingly excited because so many of the things on the list were activities that I thought would be fun. Now. Even if children weren't involved. So, I wrote down a list of my favourites from that list. Since that time, I have been anxious to actually do things off that list. Last night, I was finally able to do one.
   What do a handful of college students do at 10 p.m. when they are bored? Build a fort out of furniture and blankets, of course! That's right, we made an awesome-spice fort. Then, we sat inside talking excitedly about how cool our fort was, how fun it was to have made a fort, and how great it was to be sitting inside our fort (because we're just that cool). We actually managed to stuff 7 people inside at one point. Impressive, n'est-ce pas? Once we were all happily squished inside, like a bunch of sardines, Dave read us a story--in total darkness, aside from a single flashlight--for half and hour. It was great. Near midnight, several people stopped by and they all seemed to appreciate our handiwork/the fact that we spent our time building a fort (because everybody enjoys forts). It was ridiculously brilliant.
   To make things even better, I actually got pictures of it (if you're interested in seeing a few more poorly taken pictures of us in our fort, they're on Facebook). Check it out.
