So I figured a post-Thanksgiving entry is necessary.
So Thanksgiving. There was probably about 25-30 of us. So much food, and Dan and Janice(our professor and his wife) brought like 10 bottles of wine.
There were 2 trays of Manacotti(homemade from scratch), 3 trays of stuffing(I made 2 of them... went over very well), loads of chicken, cheese platters, spinach dip, homemade cranberry sauce, green bean casserole, smiley fries(made by a kid that a bunch of people call smiles, so I guess it worked out), chocolate cake, pumpkin squares, apple pie, roasted pumpkin and honey soup(mine again :), asparagus soup(I didn't try it, but it had whole mashed stalks of asparagus which didn't make it look to appetizing), rice pilaf, scalloped corn, candied sweet potatoes(that ended up on the kitchen floor by the end of the night), Cornish pasties, krispy kreme donuts, and I think that's it. It was absurdly wonderful. The wine was kinda cheap though. But I guess that's what you get when Drew pays for it.
Then we went out afterwards to a bar, and they carded everyone cause we came in a big group, and I've never gotten carded here(except on my birthday at that dodgy club, but they let me in anyways), so I didn't drink, which was fine. And then we went to a pub that had these midget hobbit doors that you had to crouch down to get through. But last call had already gone, so we just kind of stood there for awhile not actually doing anything.
So we get back here pretty early, like 12am. And I am so tired from going to sleep at 5am that morning and cooking for like 4 hours, that I just crashed. And I got up once at about 5am to go to the bathroom. So I'm in there and I look over, and I see something in the tub. It's like a blanket or something. So I look in closer and there's someone asleep in there. I'm just thinking how creepy that was, so I didn't look to see who it was, but there was a head. And then I got up like 3 hours ago. And then there was no power for about 2 of those hours. So I kinda spent the morning reading a book and eating cold leftovers for breakfast. But we have a new fridge they installed yesterday(our dishwasher broke, so instead they just install fridges.)so at least we have a place to put leftovers. But our kitchen is a horrible, horrible mess right now. I started just doing the cutlery, but it was futile. I decided I'd watch some TV and work on my history paper, but alas, the TVs not working. So I may just do some more dishes in a bit.
I have 2 papers to write this weekend. But I turned in my Jon Davis 10-page paper yesterday. I hope it's not crap.
