Let's try for a more coherent entry tonight, shall we?
Friday night there was Poker (with a capital P). Ian, Karen, Herb, Jeff and Kristen all came over to play. For the most part, it was fun, though there was a lot of spilled drinks and broken glass. I came out exactly even, if you don't count the glasses and the alcohol we went through. Such is the responsibility of hosting an event. It was nice to play, because I haven't in awhile.
As for the rest of the weekend... I wanted to go apple picking, but I couldn't find anyone to go with, and therefore had no motivation to actually get up and go. So no apple picking. I might not get to go this season (again) but I live in the Northeast now, and it's not as exciting anymore. Besides, I was able to go to the grocery store, buy apples and make apple crisp. Plus there are more apples to make an apple pie. And that's what I really wanted. Ohh, I should buy some cider! Then it will really feel like fall!
Next weekend, I'm going to Ithaca. It'll be my first time back in, well, exactly 4 months. Yikes. It'll be nice to see everyone, including Will and Chris Harig, who are both flying in for the weekend from their respective West Coast residences (California and Colorado). I hope the Upstate New York alumni come down, too, since there's going to be a big rush party and it's Initation weekend (yay). I'm looking forward to seeing everyone and generally forgetting that I'm adult for a little while. I'll probably be tired and hungover when I get back, but such is life.
That's all, really. Outside of my emotional rants, everything is pretty calm here. I go to work, come home, watch TV, cheer on my Chicago and Boston sports teams (Go Cubs, Red Sox, Bears and Patriots!), occasionally see my friends, chat online when I feel like it/have the time and sleep. Wahoo. There's cooking involved as well, and as always, wine. Yum.
I'll be going to be going to bed soon.
