Sample post.  Backdated 2 years.

Life was wonderful.  Four months of study, including her entire summer, 6 hours a day, had lead up to this.  The formula for the Speed Force, 3X2(9YZ)4A had been her sole focus for all of her waking hours.  Now, she could see the numbers, hear the numbers, feel the numbers, and really, really understand the numbers.  Carolyn counted herself lucky she didn’t taste the numbers as well.

All the testing, the secretive time spent out on the track with Uncle Bart, making sure she could get to the Speed force every time, it was all worth it. Even spending time after school in geography of all things (ugh!) memorizing the interstates of the US had been worth it.  All of it building to this one simple afternoon.

First things first.  She needed to write a note.

Dear Jay and Joan,

All my homework is finished, yes, even the history essay.  It’s on the corner of the desk.  I went over the math problems twice, and spell checked the paper three times.

Since my part of the deal is done, I’m going ahead with the plan to visit Henry. 

I will call when I get there, or anytime I may be slightly lost or confused.  I have my cell with me.  I will remember that dinner is at 6:30, and that Grandma Libby is coming tonight, so I should be home to change at 6:00.  I will not talk to ay strange boys (unless Henry counts as strange, which he might.

Hugs

Carolyn

Carolyn went out the door, locked it, said the formula, and ran to Coast City.  She knocked on the Jordan’s door.
