A census taker once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.
Yeah so this past week was crazy. Quick recap: Monday - Emily's grandma's memorial, and then Subway with Liz and Jeff. Tuesday - Taboo/MTV/IHOP with Kelly, Chels, and Tim. Wednesday - Artpark with my dad, seeing Max's Cole Porter revue. Thursday - Hamlet with Liz and Jeff at Shakespeare in the Park (it was pretty good, though WAY too long). Friday - an off night. Saturday - LYB's production of Crazy For You with Rachel. We sat with Steve and Emma, LYB alumni, and made faces at people on stage. It was a pretty good production. Then we went to Andrea's party (I remembered her-she's another LYB person, so it was cool). They wanted me to sleep over but I had to go home, and I was back by 1 am. Oh well. Sunday - I hung out with Chelsea last night. I know she'll "loti" when she sees this, but check out her livejournal if you want to know what went down (smittencherry). Haha. So it was a busy week. And in two weeks, my first day of school will be over. Wow. Speaking of college, my notebook came today. I was excited. These are some other fun things...
