The week that was.

Well, I guess the past week was a little more eventful than the last. I attended a volunteer fair at Drake on Wednesday. Too bad only one person came up to my table. I’m going to have to really consider if we should attend this particular fair. I’ve been things to do with two hours of my time to be real honest.

Saturday was nice because I had breakfast with Fr. Jim at the Farmer’s Market. The season is soon coming to an end so there’s really not a whole lot to see, but there are still vendors around. It ended up drizzling a little, and it was a little cool, but nothing too major. Anna could not join us because she had a meeting at St. Catherine. Later that evening, we had dinner at a restaurant we’ve been to before since we had a gift certificate. What’s really funny, when we were there some time ago, the food was good, but for some reason what both of us had did not live up to our expectations. I seriously doubt we’ll be returning. Oh well.

After dinner we went to a jazz concert at Drake by this female bassist who is definitely a prodigy. She went to Berklee and graduated in three years. She’s also the youngest ever faculty at Berklee when she was hired immediately after graduation. The concert was very eclectic to say the least. It’ll be interesting to follow her in the coming years to see where she’s headed. When the concert was over, we went to our friend’s house for dessert. It was a nice way to end the night.

The restaurant was pretty busy on Sunday which was really weird especially since it’s a Sunday. I had already clocked out and was having dinner at the restaurant when people started coming. Aaron was the only server and before long, he asked me to clock back in to help him out. Anna and I were supposed to go to a movie after I got back, and needless to say that did not happen. Work calls.

That’s the news from me. This weekend, the DSM Symphony starts its season and it’s looking to be a really good selection of music. We’re definitely excited for it!
