it was a good weekend

friday, not much, did however turn out 1/4 of my paper due wednesday, i'll finish it up right quick like once i get some words out on the web.

saturday, again, more paper. up to 3/4 now, closer. come evening time, went to town with paul and michael for some tv shopping and some dinner, which was nice. saturday was awesome, all day as i sat inside, i kept looking out the window and cursing school. happily matt decided we should get out the boards and go play saturday evening. good times. john, matt, andy, and me. 2 skiiers. 2 boarders. 4 shovels. 1 already started jump. the weather was perfect, and the snow was nice. good times.

sunday, in honor of this being jeff's last semester at iowa, before he heads west for warmth, we decided to have us a little bar ride. headed out at just a bit before noon. cast of characters: matt, john, jeff, dave, steve, me. although steve had some obligations so he would miss out on the first half of the ride. sucker. left our place bound for the vine in coralville. then old chicago. then to the dabs circle for a few rounds of snow dabs. these guys schooled me. buildings crumbled in our wake. we got to take a super fun off road snow downhill monstrosity thing that matt came up with, let me tell you, that was fun on the skinny fix. then downtown finally to que for some pool, to be topped off at mickeys for our sunday night pseudo-tradition.
bike pile!

today, long day. cold as all get out. wasn't feeling making breakfast, so stopped at java house on the way to school for a cinnamon roll and a bit of coffee to warm me up, and keep me awake. even the coffee couldn't do the trick, was fighting it all day. thermometer read neg 6 on the way to school. didn't catch it after school on the way to work, or home this evening. didn't feel much warmer. some gals thought my bike "couldn't be safe." can you believe that? yeah, i couldn't either....they obviously don't know for fun. laters.
