Usually, when saying good bye, I can lean on one of these trusty phrases:
- So long, stinktown!
- Smell ya later
- See you in hell, Candy Boys!
- Say What?!?!
But other times, like this one, call for a more formal farewell. I know that some of the other tubbers are going to have some trouble saying goodbye to the tub. To help them, and to help you when you're in trouble, I've created a simple worksheet to help you draft your thoughts when saying goodbye to someone. Enjoy!

As an English Major, I was assigned many, many books. One semester, no shit, I was assigned over 30 books to read. In nine weeks. I can sum up my feelings on those assignments in two words:

My love affair with coffee started in high school. My senior year, I made a full thermos every day to get me through 1st period Calculus (w/ applications). In college, I hardly drank coffee -- I slept 9-10 hours a night, on average, so I rarely needed it.

One thing that happened for pretty much everyone to some extent along the transition from high school to college to life afterwards is that we all porked up a little. Many things attribute to this: slowing metabolism, "late night" at the dining hall (where they have the most delectable nachos), and the ability watch as much GSN as you want, to name a few.
Kingsley, my cat who I've mentioned before, has gained some weight. And by "some," I mean quite an incredible amount.
The other day, I looked at Kings, sitting atop his little scratchy house, and I noticed some fluff hanging off the side of his tower. Further investigation proved that this wasn't fluff at all -- it was CHUB! Kingsley had gotten fat. A visit to the vet confirmed it -- since June, Kings has gone from weighing 6 pounds to weighing ELEVEN POUNDS. After the jump, you'll see unquestionable photographic evidence of the extent of Kingsley's chubbitude.
