New Post!

I know I haven’t posted in forever. I’m going to try to be better. First, I was recovering from the end of the semester. And then I was in Chicago to visit Eden and Kyle and then in Madison for Wiscon (which I failed to actually attend.)

The recovery from the semester started with Sunday dinner where we had homemade ravioli and homemade chocolate covered oreos. Mmmmmmm. I ate so much pasta and dessert, I couldn’t even eat any of the chocolates Alex brought from London (but I took a few home with me.)

The pink ones are strawberry. The green ones are mint. There were some regular ones, too, in case any one is concerned. (Why do most of the pictures I take of food also have Nikki’s hand in them?)

After the fabulous dinner,  we played Celebrity, which is way better than Mafia. It involves choosing names (we did five each) and putting them in a basket. Round one, you can say anything but the name to get your team to guess it. Roung two, you can only say two words. Round three is charades. Some of the people in this group have a bit of trouble with charades. Like how whispering is still talking. (*coff* HAROLD *coff*) This night’s round went pretty well.

One of these three pictures is NOT of someone playing charades…

Actually, really well. My team won!! By three points, so nice try other team! We’ll call you the “Losers.”

After Sunday dinner, I bid Atlanta goodbye for a month of so and went to my parents in Virginia. My Mom was nice enough to agree to Lila-sit so I could take my trip to Chicago and then Wiscon. More posts to come on that, starting with tomorrow’s special edition: “On Location: Kyle and Eden’s Apartment.” For now, here’s a few pictures of the group.

I feel lucky to have two great groups of friends to post about. With that warm fuzzy, goodnight!

    What group do I belong to?! I must be on this super cool upper eschelon. Or maybe I just wanted to use that last word.

    this cheered me up. I was really mad tonight. I’ll tell you all about it when you return. And, no, for once it was not Harold’s fault :)
