tonight is fourty degrees, but it feels warm and beautiful. the snow is finally melting away, and i hear word that there's more to come tomorrow night into wednesday. getting around on campus is difficult in the snow, but the romantic side of me says it's worth it. we'll see if it can win the practical side over.

i made three bean soup with adrienne a few nights ago. it's delicious and garlicky. when we first made it, i felt like it had too much broth, but now after a few days, it's thickened up a bit, and it's probably some of the best soup i've ever had. i think i'll make more at some point.

since the snow has melted i can do my laundry. i'm currently in the process. from my kitchen window i heard voices, and when i saw three people on the frozen pond in my front yard, i made a funny face at them then stepped outside. three kids, from taller to very short were playing. they laughed and called me mister. i told them i didn't own the pond, and if they were careful they could play on it as much as they wanted to.

on saturday, joe went out with lauren. his car was in the driveway when i got home late that night, so i assumed he was in bed sleeping. when i woke up the next morning early early, i was as quiet as possible, locked the doors, and drove to church for practice. i got back late that night too, and the car was in the driveway. i woke up this morning, quickly wondered why joe's shower didn't wake me up like it does on most mondays, got ready and went outside the house to start up my car. joe's was still in the driveway. "that's odd," i thought. he has class before me on mondays. i checked his room. no joe. i checked the garage. no joe. hmph... i wonder where my housemate is. i had to get to class, so i left, and in the process of the day, i forgot joe was missing. somewhere in the middle i remembered, so i texted his girlfriend. "hey, where's my roommate?"

he forgot his keys in the house when they went out.

what's the kicker though?

the front door has been unlocked the whole time!
