The Paper Chain Rules Again



















Upon receiving my acceptance letter to Bates in December 1995 I constructed a paper chain about 40 links in length, counting down the weeks until my departure for college (angsty, much?). 

Recently I happened upon this website and was inspired to make the chain you see here, to help our friends Liz and Ivan count down to their wedding (Baltimore, June 20!). Personally, I believe my chains are far superior simply because they arrive fully assembled (whereas assembly is required at that link). 

I'll be taking orders as of August 1st. Seriously, friends, if you'd like a personalized paper chain sent fully constructed to someone special let me know. I'll be happy to oblige.

Are you going to make one to count down to your last day at BBBSMB?

Next year, I would like to request a paper chain to count down to my 32nd birthday, staring a month out.
