footballas we approach the halfway point, she gets up to go to the bathroom, insisting she'll be back to watch a "another half hour." she of course winds up watching the entire thing, having a grand time laughing at several hilarious moments (sandra bullock and ryan reynolds's characters running into each other completely naked, etc.), while jillian glaringly shot looks over, occasionally with a shushing reminder that one of their roommates was sleeping—kind of struck me odd, being that it's a friday and all, and that girl's a sorority girl, but w/e.

saturday is the georgia tech game where we get behind and never come back, managing only three field goals, and losing with a final score of 34-9. it also rains/pours about the entire game, which was great, too—and to top it all off, i somehow forgot my actual camera, missing the chance to record the only halftime show the band has ever played while in raincoats (though the rain did stop for the entire halftime, fortunately).
on my way back to fredericksburg after the game, i give jennelle a call, and then call kenny, and we wind up having dinner at the restaurant, evan joining us. on our way to jennelle's car, we encounter some guy down by the fasmart, who sounds like he's manhandling some girl who's yelling for him to let her go, etc. the three of us guys walk over, as a black guy in a 300 who was getting gas also pulls up to see what's going on. evan calls 911 to report the incident, as the girl goes and walks off in the other direction with some guy we'd seen passing by the restaurant window earlier. the guy in the yukon accuses the other of being a drug dealer, and speeds off before the police arrive. evan and kenny go around the corner to see if the couple is still there, and to finish giving their report, as jennelle and i wait in the car. finally rejoining us, evan tells us a bit about the laws for concealed carry as we head to barnes & noble for a bit, and then cheeseburger in paradise, which had a live cover band. i pass on drinks, as i still have my burnett's.
we finally wind up heading to jennelle's, kenny and evan crack open a few beers while i mix my watermelon with ginger ale, and we wind up watching revenge of the fallen, i think, but jennelle heads to bed early, and soon enough i'm the last one still awake, so i turn the tv and lights off and try to get comfortable on the oversized one-seater..and wind up forgetting my orange jacket that i'd left on the back of the couch to dry.
sunday was the usual mass and back home, before heading back up to charlottesville kind of late.
