A new week begins

The start of the school year has seemed to hurt my posting rate, considerably.  As it stands, I should be in bed this Sunday evening so that I can get off to a good Monday start.  Rachel was not feeling well, and has been in bed for an hour already.

This weekend brought to mind the nice part about working - when you work, you appreciate the weekend so much more.  When we were in summer mode, Friday night is really no different.  But now, the weekend brings time that we do not have during the week.  On Friday night we tried to go bowling, but the lanes at iit were occupied and we played darts instead.  On Saturday we walked to the farmers market and bought some produce (only to be caught in a downpour on the walk home).  In the evening we went to a bar in Lincoln Park so that we could watch the internet feed of the NU-Rice game.  I was particularly jazzed for NU to win, as Rice served me the indignity of waitlisting me as a potential undergrad.  They won handily, but the night was odd as we were forced to watch the game on a comically small screen with no audio.  However, the crowd was rockin' and purple. 

Tomorrow brings week 3 of school.  Bring it on!
