Fall Break Wrap-up

Fall Break is over and it's back to school tomorrow. Here's what went down:

• On Thursday I had Indian food lunch buffet with Amanda and Alvina. This was probably the high point of the weekend, even if it did come to a rather pricey $10. It was worth it
  
• Met Raissa and her friend while she was down here on Friday night. We were gonna go to Arby's but they were already closed, luckily Taco Bell was open and right next door. I had a Baja Chalupa for $1.79
• On Saturday I decided to drive up to Dad's house for the day. First of all, I hadn't seen him in a few weeks. Secondly, I really had a hankering to drive and I thought going to Dad's house was as good of an excuse as any. Thirdly, I had to work on a huge paper that I have due Wednesday and since I can't concentrate at home and since the library at this fine institute of higher learning was closed (the rec center was still open though, go figure), I thought maybe I would be more productive at Dad's. Michelle was there and Raissa stopped by too on her way back up to Ft. Collins and Dad took us all out to dinner. So the unemployed man was treating the three of us broke people. It was grand.
  
• Today, Sunday, I tried to be as productive as possible, but I was really distracted and didn't get as much done as I should've. I sold my Jag on eBay today and so I couldn't help but check up on the auction about every 3 minutes. I know, the watch pot never boils, but I couldn't help it. The saying proved to be true though and the car sold for just the reserve price I had set, which wasn't really what I wanted for it. I was hoping that once it hit the reserve more people would bid and it would at least get into the $9,000 territory, but it didn't. As such, this Jag ownership experience has been a costly one. In the end I came out about $3500 in the hole on it. But I am relieved to be getting rid of it and not have to pay dad back for the money he lent me to get it anymore.

I would have preferred a long, relaxing weekend playing outside in all the gorgeous weather we had, but instead it was spent cooped up in my apartment, in the library, or at Dad's house working on homework that I still haven't finished and worrying about my eBay auction which didn't go well anyway. But I guess it is so-so weekends like this that make good weekends good, right? Hopefully next weekend will be a lot better. I shouldn't have any big project due or anything and maybe I can actually get out and do something fun. My luck it'll probably snow next weekend, hahaha.
