on friday i put on spandex pants and frye boots, got out the old d&g light blue, and smeared on that makeup that comes in bright sets of like a hundred colors. then jaclyn picked me up, and we went to the high school football game. 
hi, nostalgialand.
i clapped to the fight song, 
discussed the world with my old teachers, 
visited steak and shake afterwards...
 {usual: small fries more salt honey mustard 
kiddie shake i don't want my cherry} 
there might as well have been a delorean waiting in the lot to give me a lift home. the only difference this time around was that the football team was actually winning.
{oh, and i wasn't in a band uniform... but you didn't hear that from me...}
you'd have thought it was cool for a 22-year-old to be surrounded by high schoolers on a friday night.
-yeh!

on the road: first stop, zingerman's!

1. zing!!
2. always judge a specialty store by its mustard selection
3. mum + ann arbor's second first greatest attraction: mr. rob knopper, ladies and gentleman!
4. i don't know
5. rob and i are in a pickle
6. possibly even better than our sandwiches, the pretzel and carrot top snackee we got for the road!

mum and i drove a hundred million billion zillion gazillion miles today. we are currently a frisbee throw's distance away from niagara falls! we made it so that zingerman's and rob would be on our way and it was so great. everything is so fresh and everyone is so friendly there. by far the best part is that you can sample anything in the store that you want. even the ibericos and the banyuls and the taza chocolates, like whoa. my favorites were the local strawbees with balsamic and the carrot top hummus. and the magic brownies and the mac & cheese. and the pickles and the pesto and the hot chocolate cake... oh yeah, that is why i feel barfy right now... oh well anyways, this place made me really happy.

-yeh!
