my adventures to pgh this past weekend for carnival....

wednesday
-arrive in nyc by train, miklos has a paper to work on so i went to see the producers! $26.25 sitting in the 6th row (all the way to the left so i had a partial veiw). awesome. we take the bus to nj to miklos's house

thursday
-lots of driving
-burger at the media bbq. thank god i ate. miklos and phil did not....
-when i went into the city of angels dressing room, i got a million hugs. it was great to see people again.
-miklos, phil, and i went to the liquor store.
-after finishing off a bottle of vanilla vodka and then some, and discussing business ideas, we go to hemmingways to meet josh and everybody else who was in the show.
-phil was so drunk he couldn't stay on a bar stool so we sent him home with miklos who then came back later. phil later said that he didn't remember being at hemmingways at all.
-everyone from the show showed up. my memory gets a little fuzzy at this point. i cut my chin and i have no idea how. i talked to gerrit and ash and everyone else.
-we went to mcdonalds and i ate everyone's fries. yum.
-i went back to webster with gerrit and connor and everyone. miklos, joe, and josh went to another bar where joe and miklos drank a pitcher of beer. miklos didn't remember this until josh reminded him. (thank goodness i ate!)
-we hung out in 403. i went to gerrit's room to get some neosporin and asked him personal questions along the way.
-i told dan tasse that grad school sucks. or grad school doesn't suck but yale does. especially new haven.
-joe and ash went to sleep at amberson, everyone else left, and i slept in joe's bed.

friday
-pizza at phi bar for lunch. so good. fixed my tummy's liquor-induced unhappiness.
-went to walk around the booths for a bit. they were cool.
-walked to whole foods with phil and josh while miklos went to talk to his advisor. i got lots of peanut butter!! hooray!!
-went back to midway (phil and josh went to webster) and hung out with gerrit for a bit. it was fun.
-saw city of angels with miklos, phil, gerrit, and gerrit's parents. gerrit's mom said that she missed me and i was such a nice sweet girl and the next time i am in pgh i should give them a call and eat dinner or go to gerrit's grandparents house. gerrit's mom likes me.
-the show was pretty good. exactly what i expected it to be. ask me to explain more and i will.
-went to hooters for wings and beer (although i got grilled cheese and fries and ate other people's extra wings like i always do).
-happily buzzed, we went back to webster. i hung out with a whole bunch of people i hadn't seen like tim and dan jenson. i talked to dan a lot. we threw shit out the window. connor threw three onions out tim's window while he wasn't looking. then joe and i threw lightbulbs and a paper airplane onto 5th ave from 403's window and dan threw a beer bottle with beer still in it onto 5th. it was fun.
-i slept on the couch in 403

saturday
-went to see counterpoint sing. they were good. since it was raining, i stayed in the tent and saw the o's and soundbytes as well. also good. i like acapella.
-went to the biosac reunion thingy and saw lots of bio people and ate free food. david hill is going to med school at penn, not yale.
-went to hemmingways again and had a long island iced tea and a vanilla vodka and coke. drinking in the middle of the afternoon is fun. i miss that.
-went to outback steakhouse for phils bday. (for his bday present, his parents pay for him to take his friends for dinner) miklos, phil, josh, dana, and gerrit all came. i talked to gerrit a lot. we are still friends. he misses my funny faces and cuteness and penguins.
-steak is good.
-went to see city of angels again. good again. sad that it was the last show.
-found lots of sns alumni to talk to and did so: atom, katie, scoot, theresa, kevin and susan perry. there were others as well i'm sure.
-beth was really drunk. i took care of her by offering moral support.
-went to greg's house with beth and greg where there was going to be a party.
-around 12:30 i tried to rescue connor, joe, and ash from strike but it didn't work and then connor stepped on a screw and had to go to the hospital.
-i drove beth home in greg's car and then ash drove me back to webster at 2am.
-played solitare while drinking in phil's room (kaluha and milk and then kaluha, ice 101 and milk) until miklos, phil and tim suggested we play asshole. we did that and i drank a lot of cocconut rum on the rocks. i ended up president at the end with the most amazing hand ever: three 10s, three Qs, two Ks, two As and three 2s. awesome!
-around 4am, everyone came home from strike after a quick stop at wendy's and we all went to hang out in 403.
-went to bed around 6:30. joe and ash slept in joe's bed, julie brown's sister slept on the couch and julie slept on the floor so i slept in connor's bed.

sunday
-got up around noon-thirty.
-packed. :(
-got lunch and bubble tea smoothies (no bubbles for me, please) at lulu's with gerrit. it was nice.
-got in the car and drove to nj. the challange was to stay awake and keep miklos awake so we didn't die. and we didn't die.
-bused from nj to nyc
-got on a train.
-stupid train broke about 20minutes into the journey and we sat there on the tracks for 2.5 hours. grumpy, cranky tired poop train. they pulled us into the next station and we got on a new train.
-arrived in new haven a little after 3am. got home at 3:40. went to bed at 4am.

today i went to lab and did some stuff. i got my bike back from the shop and got some lights for it. now i am home.

new haven sucks ass. i miss pittsburgh.
