Officially Fall!: Part 2

It was previously mentioned that the return of Caramel Apple Spice to Starbucks also indicates Fall... Turns out it's available all year and called a Caramel Apple Cider now.

Not the same. I refuse to drink it during the summer. It's a Fall beverage.

First Day of Graduate School: 9/9/2008

Being the huge dork that I am... I found it only fitting to take a "first day of school photo" as I departed for my first class as a graduate student. And yes, I made Jenny take one as well.

This was obviously taken right outside of my office.

Yay grad school!!!

Officially Fall!


For me, fall begins with one very exciting event... the return of Pumpkin Spice to Starbucks. Also, the return of Caramel Apple Spice to Starbucks (but that's another day).

Today in Denver has been pretty chilly so not only did I enjoy my first Pumpkin Spice latte of the year, I also enjoyed wearing my cute brown scarf. Because White People like to wear scarves. I took a photo of the scarf/coffee combo, fun!

Coming soon: Sweater Weather! Get excited!!!

While finding the link for #97 Scarves, I realized that Coffee and Sweaters are also on the list.

Titanic

Towers took on water today like a sinking ship. First thing this morning we had a toilet overflow and it flooded the room it was in and dripped downstairs from the 4th floor to the 1st. Little did we know that the toilet was just preparing us for something bigger.

Below: photos from the sprinkler head disaster that started at 9:30 p.m. and ended at about 1 a.m.

Room on the second floor that was on the opposite side of the floor below.

Rock Star Staff

Last night we stayed up late making staff shirts, since our area shirts are lost somewhere on campus.

It's amazing what letters cut into cardboard and some spray paint can do.
