Fun in Tarpon Springs with friends, and Day 12 of the Steven Universe Marathon

Wow! We spent another vacation day playing around at the pool, checking out cartoons, and going out to dinner at a wonderful restaurant. It was Day 12 of the Summer of Steven marathon! I wore my Steven Universe Crying Breakfast Friends shirt to watch “Crack the Whip.”

Fred Visit! Day 6

Good off-work day. This was our campus day. We took the bus onto campus and walked around and repeatedly got lost due to my genius at navigation (though also we were both up for a bit of a walk and weren’t in huge hurries to get anywhere in particular–we were just kinda doing it to do it). We browsed the Music Building and I saw my old theory teacher who looked exactly the same–since I haven’t changed either I think he recognized me. After MUB we wandered around, got on a bus, found the Reitz Union, and ate Wendy’s in the courtyard (I had a fruit cup, Fred had a chili and hamburger combo thing).

School!

Ivy on campus

I found a weird floor to sleep on in the Reitz Union and tuckered out, and then we got up, played bowling (I didn’t do too bad!) and DDR. I played with a boy who really knew what he was doing, but I kept up with him okay. It was fun! We looked at the poster sale, it made me nostalgic because I did that when I first came to Gainesville and decorated my apartment with some posters from that, which I still have. I stopped browsing when I realized I brought no money.

Fred Bowling

I saw three people I knew on campus, besides that teacher. THREE. ALL from my work. I saw Erica, Cliff, and Sara (but Sara doesn’t actually work there anymore). Different times. Strange! After the walk around campus and coming home, Fred swam in our pool and I wore my swimsuit but decided not to go in because I was not hot. I decided to stand on the side and get bit by ants instead. Yeah.

We ate at Farah’s that night and I discovered I LIKE FALAFEL (woo!), and when we came home he dropped dead asleep and I finished my comic.

Phoenix and Las Vegas with Fred – Day 4

We spent the next morning by the pool. This is me before we found a place to sit, in my sundress and hat.

The view from our hotel room was wonderful.

After the pool and showers, we spent the evening at the Star Trek Experience thing–first we ate in the themed restaurant, Quark’s. (I had a hamborger. With no borg.)
