is there anything you can tack after the word "weekend" and make it an adjective? like, "weekendic" or "weekendian"? anyway. put whatever you have after that in front of the word "insanity" and that fully explains what's been going on recently.

thursday evening was spent with the one and only miss beth prouty, just the two of us (rather literally) in the theater laughing our asses off watching club dread. it was awesome. one of the guys' names in the movie was rolo.

my parents arrived on friday afternoon, just in time for the uc men's octet spring show in wheeler auditorium. i knew the overtones were going to sing, but i didn't even know that oregon's on the rocks would be there (a pleasant surprise!). the show was awesome. i'm really proud of the fact that people were blown away after my brother sang his solo.

afterwards, we all had dinner, and then i got somewhat rudely reminded that this is why i live here and not with them on a daily basis. ("they" being my aunt, my grandma, a family friend, and my cousin, who all decided to tag along with my mom and stepdad.) i was a little miffed -- you know how it goes; it's like a rule that you're not supposed to spend more than eight hours at a time with family.

the next day, we headed out to what we thought was going to be the city, but instead turned into an impromptu stop at sausalito. it was ridiculously pretty, especially with the weather. the ambience was great. everyone there was really nice, and really eating ice cream.

my mom and i decided to watch the second night of the spring show again. this time, since on the rocks was competing at stanfurd, they brought on cal jazz choir. (sabrina's solo was really awesome.) and yes, even more people blown away by my brother's solo, and afterwards, more people telling him he should have gone on american idol. (my brother can actually say he's had no formal training in singing.)

today, i lunch with the southern california miguel's family organization (heretofore known as "them") and stroll around berkeley one more time before we say goodbye. i have no idea what i'm doing afterwards, but i sure hope i have enough time for my homework and my laundry.

i guess this is ouchies, but i can't really complain since i've been getting free food and sleeping really well the past two nights.

everything in moderation!
