This is what I am now calling a trip to Kansas via Urbana. Urbansas.
I looked down at my sock last night and saw that it had a hole in it, and I said "darn".
I'm currently sitting at the PSAAP lab waiting to leave. The past two days in Champaign have been good-
please hold...i need to go brush off the 6 inches of snow off the van we are taking with a broom because there is no snow brush...these are the things i do for my job
- to be continued in Manhattan Kansas
K!
-20 minutes later...
Okay. I now know two things. A broom is a great tool for mass snow removal from cars. Also, a frozen pb-n-j sandwich is delicious (thanks Jacob!)
Anywho, the brief hiatus here has been really lovely, I have gotten to spend a small amount of time with really good people. I went and saw the weekly Monday Night Improv show with Spicy Clamato and DeBono. I then went to Murphy's and sat and bantered with many a good people. Then I spent the night at Eric Roth's house, where at 3am he realized that he forgot his plug to his MAC at Greg Hall. So we ninjaed Greg and got his plug, and I found a sweet pair of gloves!
Saw Smiller and Matt Strick! last night. Jacob is good as well. His roommate is addicted to a computer game called Left4Dead. It's about zombies. You kill/survive a zombie attack, and then you become zombies and try to kill survivors as they try to escape you. It IS a good game, I HAVE played it with Matt Kula on his xbox 360. Will I ever get this system or this game? NO. It would consume me. Much like the zombie virus.
We are still waiting on a few people before we can leave. I've been here since about 7:30. It's now 8:10. We'll leave soon, hopefully. Let me just say that the MINI Van we are taking is already full. And we need two more people's stuff in there. It takes a lot of stuff to excavate an archaeological site. We need to bring it all with us. As well as enough clothes/personal items to survive and thrive for eight days and seven nights.
I can just hear Amanda asking me, "What else?". This is when you know she is interested in your life. YOUR Amanda, not YOU'RE. Also, if you mess that one up, she looks down on you.
OH! Jacob gave me his old external hard drive so I can clear the stuff off of my old laptop. Now I can back everything up, and smash it and return it to best buy. Three year warantees are fabulous! He also took the time to put a whole bunch of movies on it. So, I'll compile a list of movies so all you readers out there (not "Readers") can tell me what banal movie to watch next. Jacob has a bad taste in movies. He enjoys them though, please see: Stick It as an example. I know for a fact that the Alvin and the Chipmunks movie is amongst this to be coming list. As well as some actual reputable movies that are escaping my brain right now.
Urbansas ho! I'm going to see if I can pack the van any tighter with stuff than it already is.
Winter Wonderfully yours,
Kev!n

you're (yes YOU'RE) here and you didn't call us or stop by? I'm hurt... but I'd bet Averhy and Eden would be even more bummed than me if I told them that Kevin could've come over the play in the snow but DIDN'T...
:-)
just kidding. have fun in Kansas!
I laughed out loud about the sock thing :)
