The office where I work

This chicken dances around to "Pomp and Circumstance," well, more waddles in a circle, and then it stops and it makes an odd clucking noise. And then "the chicken dance" starts. And it progressively gets faster and faster until it stops.

So one of the advisers and I decided to send it down the main hall. Just to see how far it would get.

Now we're looking for a remote control truck. Does anyone have one?

If the automobile had followed the same development cycle as the computer, a Rolls-Royce would today cost $100, get a million miles per gallon, and explode once a year, killing everyone inside.

The Crazy Dinner!

Well, as promised, the crazy dinner details :)

Heather, oh Heather my hero, told me she'd serve for me, and was also our chauffeur. That was hysterical. We pulled up to the overhang on the east side of the Wilk and Heather hops out of the car to let Nat in. Nat laughed pretty hard and said when we got to my apartment, "I have no idea what crazy thing you must have planned."
Good adjective.
Nat didn't appreciate the creativity that went into the menu, but he'd had a long day. And I guess part of the bet was that he didn't have to do any work...
But he definitely did a great job choosing courses. He decided to pick the numbers at random. We ended up with some random courses. Sweetened condensed milk in a muffin, a wine glass full of toothpicks, bowls with butter, whipped cream, and blueberry syrup, and orange juice in a salt shaker.
Conner stopped by while I was setting up, so we roped him in to help cook (in exchange for letting him eat some of it). All in all, it was a hilarious success. Probably the most fun I've ever had losing a bet!

clarification! / note to the aunts

Concerning boys, I wasn't entirely honest about the details the aunts get versus what I tell my mom. The aunts do get the real story. They get the details after I've digested them and talked through them with the roommates and we've decided what different things mean, and then it's still up for debate with the aunts who know lots more about boys than I do. My mom... doesn't get a written out description of things that happen in my life.



I pretty much call her as they happen.

Even if I do risk my parents planning my wedding within the hour :)
