Despite a forecast of rain all weekend, it only sort of spat at us a bit on Saturday afternoon (which was mostly lost to the gym and homework anyway so it didn't matter). Sunday after a trip to the library I met up with Andy for a walk through the parks, a game of catch and some paddle boating on the Serpentine in Hyde Park. There was a bit of a special needs moment when neither Andy and I were entirely sure if a baseball would float. SO, the genius I am, I just stepped into the Serpentine to give it a go... but, then, the entire bottom is covered in moss so I promptly slipped and nearly fell in. I think Andy, wherever he is, is still laughing at me about it. We went paddle boating for a bit which might be better if we added a bottle to the occasion. Next time!
On Sunday night I went out to Hugo's for Sherry's birthday with Sherry, Ryan, and 10 or so of their good friends. Ryan has a friend named James who is very much like Andy Richter in personality - but when he tried to banter with me, he wasn't prepared for someone who could actually handle it. Ryan got a kick out of watching us. Food at Hugo's was great - I had calamari and a burger. Mmm mmm good. If it wasn't so far away and expensive, I'd be keen to go there much more often!
Today I went bowling with Cait and Erin. We went to Bloomsbury Lanes, which is the same place we went for my birthday. It's a lot more chill but just as cool on a Monday evening. It was a good laugh, and I'm sure we'll go back soon. Tomorrow, a bunch of my coursemates and I are getting together for Cranium Part Deux. Looking forward to yet another study break (though tomorrow I anticipate having all of my essays finished and therefore will deserve a break!).

I am randomly curious-- do you see a lot of American baseball caps in London? I found when I was in Italy, I saw tons. And a lot of NY hats but it would make more sense to me if you saw Sox hats in London... Just curious.
