Halloween 2004

Can't believe it's already over! Seems like it was just October and I was like wow.. 4 more weeks till Halloween... and look, its November. Kicked off the weekend right with the usual Robbie gang heading over to U1 (our usual Thursday party spot), although Cory and I left early because it was sorta lame.

Slept in late on Friday which was nice because I've had to get up at 8am each morning because of a certain someone ;-) . I pretty much just got ready all day and cleaned up the room until Scott and Conor from MSU finally arrived around 5 or so. We hung out in the room for a while and then headed to the towers for some dinner and then to Soaring Eagle. We spent a good amount of time there and then I drove Conor over to a party at Lexington V3 and then went back to the casino w/ Conor's truck. I eventually ended up meeting Mitch there who drove up from Novi. It was nice to see him again along with some other Novi people I hadn't seen any better. When I thought that I wouldn't see anymore people that I knew at the casino, Jessica shows up!! How cool is that? We hung out for a bit and then she went on the search with her friend Megan for Chippendales tickets... oh boy. Once she left, Mitch and I played a few more hours of blackjack and then he took me back to the dorm.

Woke up Saturday and unfortunatley wasn't able to participate in the wonderful tailgating events of Central/Western weekend because I was awating the arrival of my parents and sister. I had a lot of time on my hands so I went to U-Cup for my morning mocha and hung around until they got here. Once here, we headed over to Kelly/Shorts stadium and walked around for awhile and showed my sister around. What a cold game it was! And wow, the sight of all the tailgaters in the south lot, just amazing. Check the moblog for pics. We ended up leaving around the third quarter because it was so cold. But!...Unbeknownst to me, once I was back in Novi, I hopped online to check the score to see that CMU won!! Apparentley we somehow.. and only god knows how we pulled off 5 touchdowns in the last quarter bringing us to the win with an overtime fieldgoal. Go figure.

Sunday was nice. I went to Starbucks because its been like a month since I've been there. I also stopped by the Northville Cider Mill and picked up some donuts for Dan and Eric at D&D. I visited the bike shop for a little bit and then ran out with Mom to do some errands. Later on that night I headed to Eric's to check out his remodeled house and to check out Northville's Trick-or-treaters. In northville they close down about a 10 by 10 block area for the kids to go around getting candy w/o having to worry about cars which I think is pretty cool. Northville sure know's how to do it up too... there were thousands of kids, a fun sight to see. Went back home later that evening and chilled outside with a cigar and my doggie who I missed very much.

Woke up super early this morning (7am) to come back up to MTP and almost got pulled over by a State trooper on 127... oops. So up to this point, went to computers, math, skipped computer lab, accounting was canceled... only one more to go!! Turning out to be not so bad of a monday after all, well besides the rain and coldness, haha. Thats about all for now kids. (check the moblog for the entire weekend in pictures) Peace!
