Today has turned out much better than expected. :D (Don't you love it when that happens?)
I woke up feeling kinda crappy, so I lazed around for awhile and caught up on my RSS feeds and the latest episodes of The Guild. But eventually I had to get up and cook... because today was Potluck Day!
One of the cool things about my program is that quite a few of the students are changing careers, and thus they a little bit older and have actual houses. (Craziness!) One such classmate and her husband (also a librarian) hosted us for a potluck. I made a pepper bean salad (three kinds of beans and three kinds of peppers and lots of delicious) that my Mom made the last time I was home, which was a hit.
There was lots of food and drink and socializing. (Yay, I have friends!) Also, I played Nintendo Wii for the very first time tonight. One of the professors came with his family, and his daughters, who were a hoot, taught me how to play tennis. And laughed when despite my intense concentration I missed the ball and spun around in circles, which unfortunately happened a lot. Later, I scored two home runs in baseball, proving that I am, in fact, awesome.
And Ohio State beat Wisconsin today. Go Bucks!
