"Hey did you hear that Thomas is dating a beer guzzling sorority femminazi?!"
That would be Jeremy shouting out across the hall to a fellow housemate,
shortly after finding out who it was that I was dating.
It's hard to explain,
something about that particular exclamation from my roommate
seemed to offcialize the fact that im in a relationship.
At any rate theres no use keeping quiet about it,
rumors have been circulating all over campus.
Just for the record Erin is a member of Epsilon Kappa Omicron,
and does happen to be an outspoken Womens Studies major,
however she does not drink.
And because some of you are probably wondering about yesterday...
(and because I'd rather write an LJ post instead of an academic paper)

Erin and I went out to dinner last night
in order to avoid the crowd that was sure to be invading the cafeteria.
- Last night the main campus cafeteria was closed for a senior banquet,
leaving the smaller dining hall to everyone else.
Following dinner we had intended to have dessert at a nearby Hungarian Bakery.
However the bakery turned out to be closed for the night.
So instead of going there we stopped in a pet store for lack of anything else to do.
Spent a considerable amount of time chatting, petting puppies,
and watching the general menagerie of creatures around us.
By some chance there was a ice cream shop in the same strip mall as the pet store.
Thus we decided to have the dessert we were denied earlier.
Just so happened the Ice Cream shop was a 1950's themed ice cream parlor,
complete with a wall of candy dispensers
and an appropriately dressed waiter singing old Elvis songs.
So there we were eating ice cream and having a good time.
Both aware that there was mutual interest between us.
(or so a friend had informed me earlier)
I figured there would never be a better time to bring up starting a relationship.
