I used the freaky-good weather as an opportunity to “take a walk uptown,” which was a convenient way to just go book shopping at Magers & Quinn. (“BUT I’M A TEACHER AND THEY’RE FOR SCHOOL” has been my mostly-true battle cry regarding my book binge this weekend.)

Afterwards S and I stopped by Uptown Cafeteria & Support Group for a quick snack. We got the Leinenkugels-battered onion rings (which came with delicious sauce-sort of a mild chili garlic) and house-made potato chips and French onion dip. Most importantly, I had the most amazing Oreo-grasshopper shake. I wished afterwards that I’d swum more than a half mile in the morning, but at least I just felt sluggish, which is more than the guy we watched get arrested for drunk & disorderly behavior can say.
