One of These Days...

I'm going to do all of those things that I have never done.  The list keeps growing.  One of which is learn how to put pictures inside posts.  So here is my try at that.  Did it work?  It's a snowman! and me!

Matt and I went over to Ryan's girlfriends apartment last night (with Ryan and Joey) and watched the first half of elf.  Walking into a girls apartment is like stepping onto a foreign planet.  The pleasant smells.  The color coordination.  Remarkable.  I met Katy, Amanda, and Megan (Katy is Ryan's GF).  They cooked pumpkin pancakes with some sort of cream cheese cinnamon frosting.  I'm trying really hard right now to think up a sentence that might approach an adequate explanation of how awesome that dinner was.  At midnight.  All of this while it was blizzarding outside.  It felt pretty good.  Matt and I took off at around one.  We were originally going to stay but for a few minutes.  For obvious reasons this did not happen.

Poor Matt had to wake up this morning to go to work at the library (what an awesome job though...).  He had thought that the library would be closed due to the road conditions.  Which are currently rather deadly looking.

As for myself, I slept until sometime between 9 and 10 and was graciously guessted into Fairhaven for brunch by Lodrick.  I stuffed my face as per usual when I'm given such an opportunity.  Afterword we I took a stroll with Lodrick, Nick, Luke, and Luke's roommate across campus and back to see the sights.  We attempted to roll an enormous snow boulder up the stairs to nowhere, failed, then tried to roll it down the hill from the AIC to Fairhaven.  The poor boulder cracked in half on its way.  We moved on.  I stopped by the library to say hey to Matt (the group was slowly disintegrating), found Lodrick and Nick once more and we strolled back home through our winter wonderland.  After this outing I spent awhile playing Halo with Jared, Daniel, and Connor.  We did well.  Until Daniel and Connor left.  Then it was fairly terrible.  Anyways, I made myself an egg sandwich for dinner, was on the wrong end of some stupid psychological games with Kara and Sara texting back and forth (I'm being told texting isn't a word by spell-check), and now I am here.  Preparing for a very early bedtime of 8' o'clock.  That is less than 12 hours of being awake.  But I plan on making up for it tomorrow.


Got a text from Aaron about possibly doing a game night tonight, but it is so dark and cold outside I don't think I'm capable of cranking my day up into any sort of high gear at this point.  Plus, I want to wake up in the morning.

I am now entering 2nd Kings.  It's cool to see the disjointed Bible time line in my head finally sorting itself out.

The forecast tells me Jake should be able to get home safely tomorrow.  At least it probably won't be the weather which is his early demise.  Monday night is looking dangerous though.  Great. I think I might find a place to park Monday night which isn't here.  I have serious doubts about that cars ability to get out of here safely in rough conditions.
