The last few days...

Dad, Emily and I are sitting here in the living room shooting the breeze. Chicken Little is on the TV letting us know that the sky is actually falling this time. Dad and Emily are engrossed in a conversation about Emily's car and such related things. I think dad is confused.

So last night Emily and I went to see Nickel Creek in DE. Let me tell you, they are amazing! Chris Thile is truly a virtuoso on the mandolin. Sara Watkins can sing like an angel and Sean is a great compliment to the group. Even the tap dancing bass player added to the show! A certain plus to the evening was the aquiring of a Chipotle burrito before taking off :-) I love me some Chipotle! We had a great time and I think she enjoyed her birthday present just as much as I did ;-)

Today the mission was to go to Dad's house and get the laundry done. We also stopped at the dry cleaners to drop off my suit to wear to Dad's wedding and to get some new glasses as I'm pretty shure that Chubbo steppped on my old pair while I was in Ohio this past weekend. I was anticipating spending about $200 and I spent less so i guess that was ok. They're almost identical to the old ones except these are 'Brooks Brothers' and the old ones were 'Scott Harris.' If you know the difference then I applaud the depth to which you have studied Eye glass fashion.

On a happy note, I've been chosen to receive a full scholarship to the Bartimaeus Institute in Santa Barbara, CA! I'll be going January 14-18, all expenses paid to study Matthew and social economics. It may not sound all that exciting but I am totally stoked. I haven't really applied for anything like this before so it's kind of a shock for me to get chosen. Regardless, I am very excited :-)

Well, that should do for now, have a great night!
