A lot to catch up on.
Saturday:
commencement~ whoo.
went smoothly and we were done by noon-thirtyish (super early~)
I dropped Alden off at TFA (awr... sadsies)
and met up with Christy and Katie and Steve and Daryl *sp?* to drive down to Chicago. (*crystal lake)
uneventful drive really.
I waved at Alden's house when we drove by.
Ironhide handled that trip like a pro.
we got down there around 8:30 chicago-time. Around 7.5 hours down.
Christy's family took us out to dinner for some awesome chicago-style pizza. DELISHUSSSS
Sunday:
Wicked.
followed by dinner at Rainforest Cafe
Need I say more?
Monday:
I drove over to Ryan's house (*des plaines) which took about 1 hour.
Lori was there to great me (Ryan's girlfriend) as was her dog Kika.
It was Lori's birthday (3-0!)
She made me mac and cheese for lunch, and when Ryan came home and we made plans for dinner.
We ate at an Italian restaurant with Lori's Dad.
also delishuss.
Tuesday:
I set off for Beloit around 3: 30ish.
i think.
yeah.
It's usually 1 hour and 20 minutes to get there from des plaines.
well,
I got there around 10:30ish.
it was snowing,
adn during the 7 hours I was in the car,
it snowed about THREE inches.
way to be chicago, way to be.
Beloit greated me with many hugs and laughs and general AMAZINGNESS.
I met so many people and felt generally at home with them.
THANK YOU MAGGIE.

we had the best waitress ever.
seriously, it was great.
I slept in Diana and Mara's room, in Mara's bed. as Mara is missing from her room.

Luckily, Diana's plane was delayed until 3:40. and Daniel's wasn't until 3:10 anyways. =3
Maggie and I stopped at a Wendy's for lunch. and then got back on the road.
we got home around ... what... 9? yeah.
