What another beautiful day! Again, I went on a bike ride. It wasn't as warm as it has been, but definitely great weather for this time of the year.

On Wednesday, my mom and I went with Randy and Cheryl to Chicago and Madison. It was a really fun time. We went to Room & Board (a great fantastic furniture store) in Chicago. We were looking for furniture to go into Randy's house. I helped a little with that, but mostly dreamt of the furniture that I want. Man, I love that place. While in Chicago we also ate at Giordano's, a delicious pizza place. It had to be up there with some of my favorite pizza places. Wednesday night we drove to Madison and met Ben, Jill, and Jane at Pedro's. It was a grand time mixed with some margaritas. On Thursday morning we woke up and looked at a few places around Madison. I picked up some running shoes at the Shoe Box for my running class next semester. Around 2 p.m. we left Madison and headed back home.

Thurday night was John's 21st birthday. I met him and some friends down at Brother's downtown. It was a good time. It was fun to see some people I normally don't see often. I will probably be seeing some of the same people this Sunday at Brant's 21st birthday. It should be a blast and luckily no school on Monday because it might be a little late.
