Well, I'm back from Pasadena. Michigan lost, as I'm sure you know, so it wasn't a perfect trip, but it was okay. I had a lot of fun. I shook John Williams's hand, and got to play the Star-Spangled Banner that he arranged under his direction. Kick-ass.

I also apparently got my mug on television for a good amount of time during the Rose Parade, and Ma got it on tape.

In-n-Out burgers are surprisingly good. And cheap. And good. Did I mention they're good? Especially after practices and parades. Too bad they don't exist out here.

I bought myself a yukata while in California. Was the only thing I bought, considering suitcase space was going to be a premium, and it folded nicely.

I got back to my apartment, to find it locked and chained, so I had to get someone's attention to come down and unchain me. Roommate S was kind enough to do so. She promptly went back to bed. I, however, am still quite awake. So I'll go to sleep at normal time tonight or something. Second semester awaits.

That said, I like having my net connection back again. I didn't find anyplace that I could post from while I was out. But now I'm back, and the new year is in. Now, to go catch up on a few other things...

Mmmmm.... I miss In'n'Out Burgers. I've been known to drive to Cali just to have one.

Yeah, the face shot was great. CBS didn't do many closeups, but NBC had a really nice one.

Me: Ah! here they come! *Watches CBS* Well, that was anticlimatic. *Switches to NBC* Oooh, flutes... trumpets... WOO! THERE HE IS! *Bouncy, bouncy, bouncy!!!* Ok, I'm going back to bed now. *Turns off the rest of the parade.*

Hehe... I was going to say before you took off, but I got to the compy too late: "Enjoy the parade, look sharp, do your best. And remember, no pressure! If you get a closeup, it'll only be broadcast on worldwide television!!!" ;)

I yelled "USC, you bastards!" at the TV the first half hour of watching, along with commands for UM to win. Guess it didn't work.
