good weekend. bad cold.

my weekend in dallas was very pleasant and equally entertaining. it would have been more fun if i hadn't whined every five seconds about not feeling well, and i hope none of you dallas people contracted whatever i have (i have no idea what i have, but it's still here and i can't stop sneezing). i like dallas a lot more than i expected--i assumed it would be like houston, only more north. but it's not, really. it probably helps that dallas isn't surrounded by oil refineries and that i was chauffeured around to nice places all weekend by linda, who tried to kill us with her mad driving skillz. she so needs to try harder next time.

my drive home was not so much fun, partly because i wasn't feeling well and partly because the traffic out of town was freaking awful. btw, kate, don't feel bad about not wanting to drive on the freeways there. i'm all for five-laned freeways, but i don't want to drive there either. yesterday was kinda scary. i can see how it would be like, why don't you just shoot me now and we can skip the driving part? beacuse i felt like that a couple of times, too.

when i left dallas it was a lovely 46 degrees and windy and cloudy and rainy. and i was like, wheeee! coldness! and then i got in my car and drove south. around waco i realized the clouds and cold were gone and it was more like the dustbowl. the cold front finally caught up with me in austin around 10 last night. slow ass front.

so, my weekend was relaxing, and that's just what i wanted. i liked mirrormask so much that i talked about it all through dinner last night and later made alvin watch the trailer and eventually he was like, why don't we just go see it? so we're going to watch it sometime this week.

speaking of dinner, we went to the kerbey lane down the street from our house. and i'm pretty sure our hot server boy was the same hot boy i saw after class that one day a few weeks ago. i've never seen this particular server at kerbey lane before, and i wondered why he looked familiar, and then i realized where i'd seen him and i had this OH GOD moment and blushed. a lot, which i don't usually do anymore. so dinner was good, too.

thank you all for everything =) and susan, it was so nice to meet you and kenza!
