meet me in st louis.

no sleep.
no shower.
no breakfast.
no cell phone.
no luggage.
...all before 730am.

that's how my morning started when i flew to st louis. but at least i finished julie&julia, which i would NOT recommend by the way. the movie is so much more enjoyable. (and it only takes a couple hours to get through.)

but i left my cell phone in my room, so i had to use a pay phone to call kara (the only number i had) to get lucy's number to get picked up from the airport. but lucy was already driving around the airport looking for me. oops :/ FINALLY, i found lucy (in julia's car) and got picked up.

jilly's.
+ lucy.
since i hadn't eaten anything all day and slept the entire way on the flight, we went to jilly's a cupcake shop for a snack. the cupcakes were HUGE.


my truffle cheesecake cupcake + much needed coffee.


lucy + hazelnut milk + german chocolate cupcake.

studio.
+ michael.
after arriving at wash u, i met up with michael @studio and tried to envision myself back in architecture. kinda freaked myself out. but seeing daniel jacobs (aka dj) and jacob bloom (aka ingdales) and leaving a note for missy helped me remember good studio memories.

happy hour.
+ ruby 3.
went with michael to the gargoyle (the basement room underneath the student center, like the hub i guess) where we met up with cassie, negin, david, ben, morgan, mike, jon, and jeff for free pizza, cookies, soda and beer, but line was so long i barely got a slice of pizza.

blues vs. kings.
+ free hot dog and drink!
afterward, i met up with lucy, kara, nick, and stephen and we got subsidized tickets to the st. louis blues hockey game and they just happened to be playing the LA kings! so i silently cheered for the kings while lucy sat next to me rooting for the blues. i have diagnosed her with sports tourettes. lol


my first hockey game!

blueberry hill.
+ darts!
after the game, we were a teensy bit hungry so stephen suggested blue hill for darts, deep fried cheddar balls, and a pitcher. we played boys vs. girls and we were at a serious disadvantage. boys won both games, but it was sure fun!


some tasty beer.


the winners: boys.


but the girls didnt do so bad + i hit a bullseye!

I like this. I like that you went to Jilly's. I'm going to Whodidily's with Ally on Tuesday. I think I'm coming around to this cake thing.
