Sam sent me flowers for Valentine's Day. They're very pretty, or they will be when they open. (I never realized that flowers were delivered before they bloomed so that they don't die during transit). The delimma, however, was what to do with the flowers once I got them out of the box. Once upon a time, I had a vase. But that was in pre-grad school life. In grad-school life, the flowers sat in my soup pot until the makeshift vase could be found. The makeshift vase being an old juice container with the top cut off, naturally. Soon I'll be married though, and I'll go back to having proper household items. At least that's what I keep telling myself.
In other news, we had a frisbee tournament over the weekend, the qualifiers for the Stanford Invite. Even though we are a Stanford team, so many teams come to the tournament that all the teams that aren't ranked high have to qualify for one empty spot at the tournament. We rocked on Saturday, winning our pool and enjoying the beautiful weather.
Sunday, not so pretty - tight games that were tough losses. Cold overcast weather - and I'm not just being a wimp - my visiting brother even put his jacket on over his sweatshirt. On the plus side, I played pretty well in the second game on Sunday. There's a picture of me playing some hot zone defense over here. And, I had my first score in a college tournament. It was sweet.
Since we didn't qualify for the invite, then we don't have another tournament until next quarter, leaving me plenty of time to work on things like my midterms. Argh.
