so much for football

We attempted to go to the football game tonight, but the weather had other plans. Thunder, lightning, and a lot of rain sent us running for cover in a nearby building before we even bought tickets. Word worked its way to us that the game was postponed and possible would be cancelled due to the weather. We hung out in the stair well for a while before deciding that it wasn't going to end anytime soon, so we came home.

In other news, it looks like I am going to try my hand at a new sport. The Parks and Rec department is offering a "learning to curl" class starting next tuesday night. I enjoyed watching it during the olympics, so why not try it?



Karen has found a shopping buddy and they are making a trip to Ikea tomorrow after a 3 hour faculty meeting. The drive will be 1.5 hours each way, almost all the way to Chicago. I hope they find some good deals and bring me home some cinnamon rolls.
