And another hundred people just got off of the train...

Today I did finally play some afternoon DDR, and I forget what else I did this afternoon, but eventually I came to campus to get my pictures from Carnival, and play some pinball, and go to dinner, and so on. After getting my pictures I ran into Nick, so we went to hang out in the lounge. We looked at pictures and talked bridge - we're going to go to Rodef for duplicate one of these weeks. Then we got to play bridge when Noble and Jen showed up. Then I went to dinner at My Thai with rochberg, kw, agroce, tomault, eli, and allbery. I had pad thai and it was pretty good. After coming home I hung out with Eli for a bit and then I watched movies and knitted; I watched Eight Men Out and then half of Back to the Future, and I finished the first sock I'm knitting for Eli (I had to rip out part of the toe and redo it to lengthen the sock a bit, but that's ok). Yay. Eight Men Out was really good. And Back to the Future, well, that's one of the first movies we ever got when we got a VCR when I was 8, so I've seen it a million times (though I didn't acquire a copy of it until recently). Heh.

I guess I don't have much to say. Some of the very cool carnival pictures will hopefully get scanned in the upcoming weeks, although to be honest, I'll be putting first priority on putting pictures into photo pages now that I have them. And I have doubles of all, so I'll furnish people with pictures if they want 'em.

Driving again, and Green Tea Pocky

More driving today. Eli came home from work around 6:30 and we went driving while there was still daylight. I couldn't think of somewhere to go though, so I suggested dinner, and he suggested Steak'n'Shake. So I drove to the waterfront. Aside from some ickiness switching lanes on the High Level Bridge, we got there ok, and I parked in a lot just fine. We had the "steak'n'shake dinner" and DAMN do they give you a lot of milkshake. After that I drove to Target and parked again and we got Eli a ladybug keychain watch like mine and Laura's, and then I drove to Dave&Buster's, where we played some Pump It Up (well, two rounds). I got quite a crowd because I did songs like Space Fantasy, and then later Beethoven's Virus on Hard with the spinny spins... I think I was a little mean in selecting songs on Eli, but he did pretty well for his first time on a Pump machine. After that it was dark out, but I asked if I could drive home and Eli let me. Aside from a bad right turn onto the bridge again where I was way out of my lane, we had an uneventful drive home... we just took the mostly back ways, up Monitor to Shady to Wilkins to Fifth, etc, and then I parked on the curb here. Driving at night really isn't so bad.

This afternoon I went to eat crepes for lunch and shop at Supa-tokyo with Carl. I got a lot of pocky - namely, Mousse pocky, in Strawberry, Chocolate, and a new Maccha flavor - namely, green tea. The green tea Pocky is REALLY weird. I either will give it to Carl, or if not him, try to foist it off on KGB, I guess...
