Splendid Day

Round 1: It all began with a minor nervous breakdown... but it went up from there. Alana, Brooke, and I went to pick up a one Mr. Aasen, who was sitting on the rocks in front of Boulder Creek apartments, with very messy wet hair. Our first stop was Tri-State, where Alana fixed Phil's hair (yeah faux-hawk). We then went on a great excursion in the shoe department where Alana's "professional" shoes ended up being fancy flip-flops. Silly girl. But Brooke makes a wonderful tough love shopping consultant. And then onward to One World Cafe! I don't like raspberry ice tea all that much, but it was alright. The building was marvelous though! Doors hanging from ceiling, narrow stairs, and wonderful lofts! I got all the way through my ecology notes, and halfway through anatomy. Then came HyperSpud Sports, in which Phil discovered that he'd forgotten about a dinner engagement. Oops. So he left us, sad day! (after a moment of reconciliation between Brooke and Phil). Then the Co-op. I love that store so much. A splendid lunch ensued, and then all kinds of wonderful grocery shopping. I got Wensleydale cheese and grapefruit Juice Squeeze. So tasty! After the tastiness came the mall, WinCo, shirt shopping, and buying marvelous fabric at JoAnn's.

Round 2: We came home around 5:30 and I made a Totoro for Hannah's birthday, whilst studying anatomy.

Round 3: Brooke and I rearranged the whole upstairs (i.e. all the furniture) and built an epic fort/castle! We used 4 couches, one music stand, one fire escape, one tv, and two mattresses. We crammed about 8 people inside and talked for awhile, and it got very warm. I then made cranberry orange scones, we made tea, Phil came back over, and we watched Muppets from Space, inside the tent.

Round 4: We stayed up talking until almost 2 a.m. and then proceeded to drive Phil home. On the corner of B street and Colorado we noticed three shady individuals sitting on the curb. Guess who? Ben, Robbie, and Tom, of course. Who else would sit on the corner, completely sober, asking people what their favorite color was, and taking bets on it. A wonderful end to a wonderful day :)
