food and fun (with friends, yay)

jackson woke me two minutes before my alarm went off and while we didn't get a couple of things done that are needed, we hung out, played tennis, and watched some college football before she headed out to watch the ucs game at our friend mary's place (cuz mary has the big ten network and ucf is played penn state today) and i headed out for dinner with helen at a place i never tried before... helen and i caught up on job changes and trips we took and other stuff we did since we last hung out (lots happened in the last few weeks) and dinner was good for the price, but would not have been worth full price (helen had a group on)... service was great...

after dinner i headed up to mary's to catch the last quarter of the ucf-penn state game and we cheered and cheered and cheered and ucf pulled off the upset at penn state's home field, winning their first game against a big ten opponent in eleven tries, 34-31... much joy as both jackson and mary are serious ucf fans (jackson especially) and i cheer for the local team too... we headed home, but on the way i decided to head to curly's place because there was a group of people playing cards there and and we had fun eating pizza and brownies and all sorts of snacks and playing cards for hours...

a long fun evening and night of food and fun with friends... time to relax and catch up sports scores and maybe watch a dvr'ed show as i slip into sleepiness... softball tomorrow, so i ought to get some sleep tonight ya know :)
