So, this is Shane. If you recall, he is in a band with me. We call ourselves the paper janes. We call ourselves this because it is our name. And in this band we play music. We deliberated over different kinds of bands–say, a band of thieves or a band of merry makers, but thought that would require more than just two of us, so we decided against those particular kinds of bands. We also considered starting a dance company instead, but then we remembered that Shane doesn’t have what one would call a ton of dance experience, so we figured it would be safer to stick to something we both know.

Anyway.

Shane is currently in South Africa. Allegedly, he is going to school. This is yet to be proven. Although, if you go to his blog, you will find a picture of one school building. The picture looks suspiciously like any old google image, but I suppose he would say this is proof that he is, in fact, going to school.

I have told him that we have plenty of schools right here in America, but apparently Shane wants to live a life full of adventure and learn about other cultures and make new friends and grow and be brave and live a story that is worth telling and blah blah blah Shane, if you didn’t want to be in a band anymore, you could have just said something instead of running off to South Africa to “go to school.”

Ahem.

But my point is that Shane has started a blog. And you should go read it, if for no other reason than to see some of those google images of the University of Pretoria pictures of his school out there.

Actually, the truth is that I am totally proud of Shane for living life the way he does. And I like all of you who read this here blog, so I wanted to let you in on a new blog that’s pretty rockin’.

So yes, go read it!
