Dinners, Movies, Parties, Races

FRIDAY
No classes.
Learn some more German.
Fantastic dinner at Lauren's (in which the risotto was done extremely well but mushroom-y, the salad chunchy and delicious, and the white wine nice and cold).
Saw Marie Antoinette and loved it, aside from the damn high schoolers who ruined it with constant chatter and cell phone usage.
Watched episodes of Legends of the Hidden Temple for a good hour.
Headed to a Halloween party and had good conversation with friends, ranging from the awkwardness of social gatherings to Chuck Norris jokes.

(I get: 5.5 hours of sleep)

SATURDAY
Tailgated at the house with Erin's family, which was awesome. Lots of great food and lots of people.
Went to game and left at half-time because it's not worth it anymore (thank God basketball and gymdawgs starts soon).
Ate more tailgating food.
Learned some more German
Went to birthday party later that night and was embarassed by the lack of quality in the "band" that started to play. Lauren threatened to shoot herself in the face if they did anymore covers from our middle school days. Cut to NSYNC'S "Bye Bye Bye" and us leaving out the back.
Get stopped by a cop before getting in the car and am glad I volunteered to be DD. After Kirsten tells him she'll put the nearly-empty bottle of wine in the trunk (which I cringe at) he tells her to leave it here, which she does. Note to all: It is illegal to have any open container in your car, no matter where it is located.

(I get: 4 hours of restless sleep)

SUNDAY
Wake up at 7 to get to the Dash for Darfur 5k.
We get there and I lock my keys in the car. Lauren (who has pulled her back and is in another car) goes to get spare key.
Run race in the cold and rain but make decent time.
Realized the spare key is not the right key and proceed to walk another 5k home with Marla.
Marla calls AAA and they unlock my car, I come home still cold from the mornings events and pass out. It is only 12:30.

Things I was happy about this weekend:
I like being DD for parties now. Watching everyone else is more fasinating.
Tom gave us a shout-out on the radio on Saturday during "SweatBox"; Erin's new song is "Peaces and Cream."
The Marie Antoinette soundtrack is amazing.
