Went to Eric's last night for "Eric's Supercalifragalistic Birth-tastic Bonanza of Wonders." He did not come up with the title. It was fun, had some beer, Andy made a cake (which was tasty)...oh and it SNOWED. A LOT. But very wet snow so when we got there we were soaked. Had fun, yadda yadda...but the party sort of broke up when we ran out of beer. Or at least that's when I left. But not before getting into a snowball fight with and around Eric's house. I say "with" because I tried on many occasions to throw the snowball into the front door. I was successful a number of times and apparently sent one sailing into the kitchen (at the back of the house) where it nearly hit Ben.
So Sam and I decide that sledding would be an appropriate activity. Turns out we weren't the only ones. Met two guys named Sam and Ian at Peffer Park around...2am? Went down a few times, I flipped and rolled like I usually end up doing, but it was fun.
Then we were hungry. Options: McDonald's, and Oxford Diner. We picked the farthest one, so Sam drove us, in a blizzard. We made it nearly all the way there without getting stuck, only to get hung up on the curb going into the Diner. Fortunately, the host/waiter/shift manager/owner/cook came out help push us into the parking lot. Talk about bringing in business. So we sat down and then a cop walks in and says "Man, if this snow keeps up, it won't come down!" Think about it.
So to give a brief review of Oxford Diner: EXCELLENT. I got three (huge!) sausage links, scrambled eggs, hashbrowns, and two chocolate chip pancakes for FIVE DOLLARS! And bottomless hot chocolate too! I will be returning there soon.
Campus was beautiful this morning, but Hueston Woods was even prettier. Went out with Sam, Andy, and Erin to take pictures/hike around. It was a great way to start the day.
