Fate strikes once again
Since we've been stuck in a rain spell for the last two weeks our band picnic last night was moved to the Ytterboe lounge. It was better than I thought it would be, though, because the couches are awesomely comfortable. The officer skit was pretty good, and the new softball coaches are Mark and John D.
After the picnic I participated in the third floor's dessert-food extravaganza in the kitchen for about 45 minutes. I didn't really do anything except watch them prepare the food and sneak a few bites of something, but it was nevertheless enjoyable.
Then I headed over to Megan's room and we finally watched The Last Unicorn! Then we talked until midnight or so, but I had planned on leaving the room earlier. My roommate is "sick," and he likes to go to bed early when he's sick. He's a very light sleeper, and I don't like waking him up just because I decide to stay out late. Sure enough, he was in bed and asleep, but when I unlocked the door he woke up. I also had to check my e-mail and finish some work, which kept him up until I went to bed around 1:15. You think the college would install quieter locks to accommodate light sleepers, but I guess they don't care.
Staying up until 1:15 was not the brightest idea. We had early morning softball, the last one of the year, at 7:30. I'm just lucky I'm not dead tired. Anyway, this game was for the broken bat, a trophy for the winning team that is showcased in the director's office. Not surprisingly, the orchestra won. Last year's victory was a just a fluke. The orchestra greatly outnumbers the band in experienced players by at least 2 to 1. Us bandies show up and play for fun, but most of us never played or stopped playing before high school. It's not that I don't have faith in the band, because anything can happen. Destiny just favored the orchestra. Well, time to attack my ethics terms!
