Dandelion and Burdock.

Today was a continuation of the dance movie marathon. It was pretty great! I woke up around 10:30...my body does not like sleeping any later than that, which is quite disappointing. I definitely wasted my morning online, and did nothing productive.

When Melisa woke up, we had lunch and watched Step Up. After that, we wandered down to the pier. It was SO nice out today, and I love going down to the pier. But the water is really low lately. In some spots, you can see the bottom 3/4 of the way across the strait. I'm not sure why--I will say that it hasn't rained (that I've noticed) since I've been back from break. And it didn't rain for three weeks before break either. The weather has been really strange.

After going to the pier, we decided to try to find some sheep. We went on a sheep-spotting mission. We found some benches along the road, and it was pretty so we hung out, watched sheep, and talked. It sounds so exciting, I know, but it was peaceful. It's really nice to just sit outside, but benches are hard to find. Apparently you need to walk along busy roads to find them?

Then, we watched Take the Lead, ran to the store, and had dinner. It's such a great life. We were told that we should try this soda--Dandelion and Burdock. They said it tastes like Dr. Pepper! But I smelled it, and it smelled like bubble gum. Melisa tried it (I really didn't think it was a good idea) and said it was like a mix between bubble gum and licorice. Not a good combination, actually, and she does not recommend it.

Other than watching movies and wandering around outside, it's been a very easy day. I still need to edit my papers, but I'm enjoying slacking. I guess I'll be doing that tomorrow, in between more dance movies ;)
