So, Holli came over to do a quiz for Art His­tory, and she goes into the bath­room. I then hear, “Oh! Hunny! I don’t know what I did!” Water was gush­ing every­where. Holli had gone in to wash her hands, and it just hap­pened to be the last move­ment needed to break the facet from the pipe. A cou­ple phone calls, a visit from Justin Now­ick, and 4 inches of stand­ing water later, all my tow­els were wet and the plumbers were sched­uled to come the next morn­ing. Of course, there are pic­tures.

Bytes in Bran­don Valley

They Bytes was asked to per­form (with a mes­sage) to a col­lege prep course. We met Mike down there, and the six of us did three games, a sketch (a skit with a large empha­sis on improv and only an out­line of events) about the dan­gers of binge drink­ing (plus a con­ver­sa­tion), and some words about col­lege life. It was too­dles. I got some pic­tures.

Easter

I went home for Easter, and Holli went home for Easter. This year’s Easter was pretty laid back. We plaid gui­tar at church, and we made Ben’s spicy beans (These beans are so spicy that I cried the first time I ate them. I cried like a girl ignored at prom). We did bowl­ing, too, which was nice. We played the crazy kind of Balder­dash (David’s ver­sion). Then we had sup­per at Sue’s place and I brought Ben’s beans (The first time I ate these beans I cried. I cried like a Star Wars fan after Episode I). Then I went back to Madi­son. There are pic­tures.

Holli’s Birth­day

Holli had her 20th birth­day on the 15th. Unfor­tu­nately, we couldn’t cel­e­brate until that Mon­day. So I gave her her presents: Adi­das Moves for Women, mark­ers, I wrote her a myth, a mes­sen­ger bag (this present came days later, and I had to do a lot of sneak­ing to get her to go to her car for no rea­son and find it). You can read her post on the day. She was on duty for part of the time, but we headed down to Sioux Falls and ate at Ruby Tues­day (my first time ever — very very excel­lent), watched “Thank You For Smok­ing” (very funny and satir­i­cal), and got some Cold­stone Ice Cream. I think she had a good day. Happy Birth­day, Sweetie! Pic­tures are here.

  1. I heard Thank you for smok­ing was really funny. Ruby Tues­day Deli­cious, Cold Stone the ice cream shop of the Gods.

  2. It was a super excel­lent day. But you can’t ever top break­ing your boyfriend’s faucet and caus­ing a “Flood of 93″ in Apart­ment 2.

  4. Hi Miles,
    It was great to get to meet you last week­end — wow you guys helped SO MUCH! We couldn’t have done it with­out your help! Hey, my com­puter is doing the exact same thing it did before you fixed it. I sup­pose it updated itself overnight at some point. Is this some­thing oyu could talk me through? What was the process that was opened when I try to opena file within Word? Any help you could pro­vide would be greatly appre­ci­ated. Thanks mIles!!!!
