Day, ToDay: Friday

Fridays are always nice because they are the last real work days of the week. Friday nights are always easy at work too. Another good thing about Friday is that I can sleep in a little bit because I don't have to leave the house until roughly 8am.

Mmm, can you say delicious? Not me... I'm talking about the omlett behind me that I'm thumbs upping.

Yayaya! Veggie omlet, grapes, cinnoman toast, and coffee.

Fridays are my designated swim day with Jenna. This is what I would look like if the rapture had happened that day...according to some theorists :-P

After my work out and swim, I got dressed and headed over to my Psych of Women's class.

...I took a break at the SCC to eat my delicious bean and chicken burrito...

...Then I studied for my Congitive Psych test which I am still waiting to get my grades for...

After my test, I decided to walk over to work because it was nice outside. I was so relaxed and free that I took my shoes off and just enjoyed the day. Part of me felt immature and dirty. I remembered all those pictures of Britney spears walking around barefoot at random gas stations... and then I put my shoes back on. It was very nice for the moment that I had them off.

When I walk to work from main campus I get to pass this really cool construction site. This week they have been rerouting the train tracks so that they can start to tunnel.

My favorite water fountain...

Friday night it was storming! There was a huge flood (I'm talking like 2 ft of water). There was hail too. I took a break from work to watch the rain pour outside. It was coming down so hard that it almost looked sideways. What a beautiful treat!

The boys decided that in order to avoid getting wet, they would make a raincoat... fabulous, no?

I, on the other hand forgot to make a raincoat. Since I was enjoying the beautiful day, I forgot that I had left my bike on main campus (roughly a 20 minute walk). I have always wanted to take advantage of the Corps of Cadets Escort service. Every year, I have said, "I should call them!" Every year, I make excuses..."I don't need an escort, this is embarrassing, I don't have the time, It's not dangerous, etc." Tonight though, I thought, "Maybe the corps boy could help me carry my laundry or my giant heavy back pack!" I called and eneded up waiting an extra 15 mintues in the rain. He got there and we started walking. He didn't offer to carry anything and I decided that I would not ask.

We had a great conversation as we walked. 10 minutes in, a car pulled up and offered a ride. We accepted. The car smelled like coffee and our driver explained he was about to go on a date and decided to get his lucky lady some coffee. The train came as we pulled out onto the main road and then it stopped. We were obviously facing a potential delay... so our driver asked if he could drop us off at the rec (just feet from where he picked us up). We agreed and began our journey on foot again. About 45 minutes after getting off work, I arrived at my bike, thanked more corps boy and scadadled home in the rain.

As you can see, I got very wet and muddy on my way home. I didn't really mind though. I went straight to bed because I knew that I would have an early morning the next day. We had our semiannual West Campus meeting scheduled at 9am.
