Sorry for the long delay folks! It's been a really long week!

A quick trip to the mall this morning with my new friend Kyle to grab some black shoes had me pounding on the doors of the stores! But I found what I needed, returned, packed, and checked out. Poor girl at the front dest was left all alone to answer an old man who could barely hear, 3 ringing phones, the two of us checking out, and another man with questions. :(

To this day, I still question whether they're real

Today the fair was down the street. Finally! No long drive! At the beautiful campus of University of Virginia. Another sandwhiched lunch and then we all packed into a large room with lots of other schools. So many schools that everyone was sharing their tables. Then the students started piling in. Only thing is, as I looked around the seemingly busy room, I noticed that my new friends were as empty and bored as I. It seems the students at UVA were only interested in a few schools! Oh well. After getting into a heated competition for contact cards (and wining I might add), the fair finally ended and it was time to head out to Richmond.

Another long drive.

My new friend Melissa and I arrived at the Springhill Suites at the same time, and ironically both received handicapped rooms, which were huge!! And beautiful!! After finding a local place to eat, we gathered up Kyle, who was staying in the ghetto, and headed out to Kabutos. After a great long dinner with lots of laughs, we needed dessert. My east coast friends couldn't believe I hadn't ever heard of Friendly's (which is much like a Denny's with lots of great ice cream) and so we went there. Yum.

More laughs on the way home, and then I crashed . . .
