Check that sandwhich out.
I was just feeling a little sad and I have been at various points throughout the day. Then I reflected and this day pretty solidly kicked maximum ass. It started with what is arguably the best way to start any day. Then my first real activity was meeting nina to watch the gilmore girls in doherty apts in our pajamas. I came home and graded papers, ate, then sat pensively on my couch listening to music for a little bit. I took a trip into Squirell Hill to visit the fine people of Citizens Bank and eat a moose head made out of chocolate (with peanut butter antlers). I drove to filmmakers to find out I had no equipment reserved :(. Nina and Kaitlin and I sort of made plans for dinner, which sadly fell through, but I ended up going to play Mutiny at Mike Yin's which was a pretty awesome game in my opinion. This only after a brief AIM convo which I had to cut short (I still feel kind of bad about it). Then a movie with Nina, Dave, and grad students where we ran into Julie, Marshall, Gerrit, Leslie and others. I was next to Nina who canoodled the whole time, but luckily we had pre-gamed so I didn't mind too much. Brief stop at the lounge before people came over for a small but enjoyable bit of alcohol consumption. What more can a person ask for in a day? Throw in some phone convos with Kaitlin (I take what I can get) and I interacted with so many awesome people, I had fun, a good mix of alone get-work-done-time and crazy-full-of-people-make-em-ups time.
Maybe Zach's right....
Nope. This probably won't last.

Mexicans don't wear socks :(
So I went to Mexico and am arguably a bit darker than when I left (i even do noir-esque asides sometimes). But here's what my subconscious was thinking while the ocean was crashing outside my window one night:
I am sitting on a streetcorner watching "Sgt. Pepper: The Musical." It was being performed outside, partially on a street and partially on the river behind it. And the actors would basically "sail" onto stage in inflatable life boats. However, the boats were motorized and could only go North. The premise of the musical was that the fab 4 was lost at sea and Billy Shears was in his own boat. At one point I ran out and jumped in one of the boats. Boy, do I love attention.
I was also eating the toes of my street-side companion, one little segment at a time. With a straw.
At least it was better than the night I had an awkward conversation with some skinny-dippers at 5:30 am.
