Yes, that's right, it's the 40th anniversary of Sesame Street! (Heh, thanks Google.)
I LOVE Sesame Street so today instead of writing a paper, I applied colored wax to paper in honor of it all.
[I'm the one in the yellow sweater]
Aka I, Christine L. Roberts the 20 year old, own and use a Sesame Street coloring book. Yes'm, you heard me. AND i AM NOT ASHAMED! :D So there.
My Sesame Street obsession was birthed when I bought my best friend Shelby a stuffed Bert for 75 cents at a thrift store and we decided at random that I was like Ernie and she was like Bert.
Through the months and years it grew and matured, and we both accumulated more Sesame Street jokes, stories, and belongings.

[see? she even has red on her... Bert's nose, anyone?]
Why, you ask? Well let me put it this way...
- Ernie has a round face and Bert has an oval one.
- Ernie is always joking around while Bert is more cynical.
- They are just really good friends, but some people might wrongly perceive them as gay.
- They are still friends, even when they become way older adults.
- Ernie is short; Bert is tall.
- Ernie is immature but Bert is responsible.
So I will leave you with this extremely creepy attempt at dressing up as Bert and Ernie for Halloween. I don't know these people, but Shelby found this on a random Google search last year.

See you later, alligators!
