Read Frances Stead Sellers article at Washington's Post on texting literature. Interesting. I can't imagine Selah's teenage academic life at all now.

No, I can't elongo, but I love the new look of your blog! That's a great template!
Love your new blog look! Suuuweeeeet!
The elingo looks like something the teens in my church youth group would say.
Oh, let me share this. I was writing my Chicklit novella and asked them for a different way to say, "I'm just hanging out with my friends, we're doing our own thing, not getting into trouble, just being ourselves."
This is what they came back with:
"Aiite I'm gonna kick it wit my diggety dawgs an' be chillin' like a
villain up in da hizzouse, kickin' it back oldskool style fo sheezay. We ain't lookin' fo' no beezies lookin' fa treezees yaddimean? Juss actin' like Gs so peace up a town down."

For real, Camy. I got you, Ma. :) I love it!
Bonnie, thanks for the comment. I thought the new blog had a thinking, praying perspective to it. I want it to seem calming, but you thinking about Christ or something.
