hm. how is it possible that i am still taking final exams? didn't i do this enough times already? clearly i missed the boat somewhere.

11th semester of finals. rock on.

also, I owe a formal apology to Behram for not including his August visit on my blog.
Formal apology begin: I AM SOOO SORRY! Formal apology end.

Quick recap of visit: Behram, Collin, and Luke stopped by on their way to Cali in August. I was worried that my adultish/lame lifestyle would freak them out (and it did, I think my 'real' house scared the beejebus out of Luke) so I tried to plan something weird and silly to do. Which I did, and it worked famously! We went to the Michigan Renaissance Festival for the opening weekend. I don't know if other states have these but they are AWESOME and about the nerdiest ,weirdest, most random thing that happens around here in the fall. Do people wear medieval costumes and buy swords and chain mail? YES. Is there meat on a stick? YES. Did I get to drink some mead and get thrown in jail by my "friends" and have to sing a silly nursery rhyme to get out of said jail? YES. Is there a joust and wench show, complete with noisy, smelly wenches who yell at you? YES. And did i win the axe-throwing contest? FUCK YEA. Moral of the story: Don't mess with me because I can throw a small axe and probably hit you with it.

You forgot to mention how we went to the Mongolian BBQ place and Luke, Behram, and I each consumed 5.5 pounds of food. Mostly strange combinations of meat. Yeah.

And renaissance fairs exist in most states. Alternately, there are highland games that celebrate all things beautiful, I mean Scottish. Definitely worth attending at least once in your life.

there are also highland games here, but I\'ve never been, unfortunately. however I hear there are fun things like log rolling and playing the bagpipes.
