Hey, friends. Checking in quickly to assure everyone that I made it to Madison, made it to class today, and was careful not to sweat on anyone's belongings but my own.
From what I can tell so far, Madison is a pretty awesome place. I had the easiest commute of my LIFE this morning, passing by the lake on the way. Have I already mentioned that I live less than a block from a lake? As a Nebraskan, this is a BIG F-ING DEAL to me! I've never lived this close to a body of water before in my life. I plan to take full advantage.
Anyway, I got in last night, hauled all of my crap up 3 floors (wishing with every. single. step. that I had packed less - as I always, always wish), watched basketball and drank a beer with one of my new roommates, and went to bed. Today, I went to class, then to the biggest Target store I've ever seen, Whole Foods (where I wandered aimlessly for 30 minutes, but managed to stick to my grocery list), and Trader Joe's. My new apartment is in a cool, old building with a big bay window in the living room. My roommates seem like great - and extremely funny - people (who happen to be hosting a party on Friday night - let's say it's in my honor...). And it seems like there are too many cool places to go, things to do, restaurants to visit in this town to possibly do it all in 2 months. I look forward to trying.
I'll be back with more "Photo a Day" posts soon. Today's phrase was "Something we don't know about you." You know when you are in new group situations and the leader/teacher/coach asks you to go around the room and "tell us your name, where you're from, and something interesting about yourself"? I always fail at that. Like, miserably. I can never decide what "interesting" thing I should tell people. Well, this is no different. I'm not sure what you do or don't know about me and I'm not sure that I'd really like to share most of the things that most people don't know about me on the world wide web. Like, if there are things the majority of you don't know, there's probably a reason for it... (It's embarrassing. I don't know what "it" is, this mysterious secret information, but I can assure you that "it" is embarrassing.)
For now, goodnight. I hope you're all doing well and had a good Monday.
