Austin, so far; in bullet points

[jessipsaloquitur]

• annkiri is a GODDESS.



• Stubb's barbecue was unimpressive. We're still in search of the best barbecue in Austin.



• Amy's ice cream, however, was DELICIOUS. The concept of ice cream mixed with alcohol is BRILLIANT!!!



• soylahtayplease gave us the grand tour of her new working digs. Beautiful place. Interesting art. Yummy lunch served in the dining space.



• The plane ride here broke my suitcase. But now I have a shiny new suitcase!



• Retail therapy was had. It was good.



• I did mention that annkiri is a goddess, right? Well, it's definitely worth mentioning again. A GODDESS, people.



• The Magic 8 Ball application on the iPhone is an excellent way to make all your important decisions!



• The orchestra of very drunk older men playing their imaginary instruments along to the music on stage was the BEST PART of our night on 6th Street. Imaginary triangle playing FTW!!!



• An amazing time was had with Texas Boy.



• THE ARIZONA CARDINALS ARE GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL!!!!!!!!!!! And, it gets even better. I get both my teams on February 1st with a Steelers/Cardinals show down!!! *flails wildly* I have no idea how I'll resolve the internal conflict about who to cheer for, but for now I'm just very happy that I'll have that particular dilemma.



• annkiri and soylahtayplease helped me cheer on my teams as we camped out at a local sports bar all day yesterday. It was a blast!



• Today I caught up on some of my missed sleep. Which meant that we missed the Nia class that we had planned on going to. But oh my gods how I needed the sleep! Plans for later include My Bloody Valentine at the Drafthouse, and dinner at Magnolia. Good times!
