Holy mackeral, it’s November first.  25 more days until I come home and see my family, my St. Louis friends, and Andrea!  It still feels like yesterday was the day I moved into Stanford.  Time sure flies when you’re having fun.

Sleeping half the day away sure limits what you can do during daylight.  I woke up around 11:30, went to brunch, and headed over to Walmart with Phoebe.  I bought three boxes of Wheat Thins, three boxes of Poptarts, and a box of tea.  That was fun, chilling with Jeebe.  She picked up some Centrum vitamins – I kid her because now she’s taking old person pills!

Anyway, that afternoon I attempted to do some chemistry.  Once again, I struggled with that, got to the point of frustration and quit.  I played Halo with Curtis, Immanuel, Harry, Dennis, Uri, and Nigel for about two hours after dinner.  That was a lot of fun, although I felt like such a typical computer nerd. 

I headed over to Okada with Anna and Mickey, and watched the Japanese version of “The Ring” for a little bit.  Anna had a friend in her a cappella group Counterpoint who wanted her to stop by the party at BOB, so I went over there with her.  The first time we showed up, nobody was there.  We walkted around the Row Houses for a little bit, and then went back to BOB.  This time it was packed, and we kept getting bumped into on the dance floor.  So we left, and ran into Harry and some other people who had been watching “The Ring.”

They were heading over to the Row, so Anna and I said what the heck, and walked back again.  We checked out a party at the French House, but nobody was there, so we went over to BOB.  They weren’t letting any people in the party by then, so we checked out MARS.  It was incredibly crowded there, so Harry, Anna, and I left and walked back.

The rest of the evening consisted of Harry, Anna, and I watching Office Space on DVD.  It’s turning into one of my favorite movies.  By then, it was 3:00AM, so I crashed in my comfortable bed.
