GO CARDS!!
Hell, at the very least, we won't have a repeat of 2 years ago :-) But I have to admit, after hearing about how badly we're going to be creamed by the Tigers, it's very, very, very awesome to have won the first game! Go Redbirds!
Alright, so funny story of the month:
Lauren and I have been going to dinner every Tuesday now that she's in STL for her first project. We've been going fun, relatively nice places and - because we're going around 7:30 - we've been making reservations. This week, Lauren felt like Mexican and suggested ZuZu. She heard it was good, though neither of us had been before. So, like we always do, she offers to make reservations. She emails me a few hours later saying the woman was pretty rude in telling her that they didn't take reservations. Lauren couldn't really figure out why she had been so odd on the phone...until we showed up to ZuZus that night to find it a fast food restaurant. Imagine calling up Qdoba inquiring about reservations! *headdesk*
I've been spending most of my free time reading lately. In the last month, 've read Bernard Cornwell's The Last Kingdom, Jasper Fforde's The Eyre Affiar and Lost in a Good Book, Mary Doria Russell's The Sparrow, and Dave King's The Ha-Ha. The Last Kingdom and The Sparrow were by far the best, but Fforde's books are just so damn much fun! Anyways, I'm running out of things to read again and should probably hit Borders sometime soon.
Homecoming is next weekend, and I got to take a half day on Friday to get back to Bloomington at a decent hour!! I'm so excited to see everyone again after almost 6 months.
Once again, though: GO CARDS!
