i'm going to start you on fire.

i have been having the greatest weekends lately. i really didn't think anything could top the city bus episode from 2 weeks ago, but i've got a close second. it started friday: another bus episode. this part wasn't really fun, but pretty entertaining. so i'm on my way home on the bus and i'm sitting by some unique individuals on the back of the bus. this lady is kind of fighting with some random guy and they are just talking crazy at each other. then the lady decided to talk crazy at me and told me that "her people could beat me up." i just sat there and pretended not to hear her. then she told me that she was going to "set my ass on fire." what kind of a threat is that? who starts someone on fire? anyway, that was my most interesting experience on friday. on saturday my roommate and i went grocery shopping. we went to metcalfe's connected to the hilldale mall. that was a very classy establishment, let me tell you. they had a ginormous dessert showcase; i got a giant chocolate rod thinger. delicious. so that put us in a good mood, and then we met a lady who was giving out wine samples. she was so fun! we sat and talked with her for half an hour and drank free wine! who would have guessed that i'd leave the grocery store with a buzz. anyway, we went home and i took an ideal nap..... you know, one of those perfect saturday afternoon naps where you have the whole day to waste laying in bed. after that, we made dinner. we made twice baked potatoes, asparagus and steak with gorgonzola cheese and sauteed mushrooms. it was soooo good!! i have to say, i had way more fun just hanging out around the house, unshowered and wearing sweatpants than i did going out the night before! i think we all need one of those chill-out, low maintenence days to get our ducks back in a row.

I agree with the downtime. While it's fun to go out and have a good time, sometimes it is nice just sitting at home relaxing and doing absolutely nothing!

Sorry I made your story not funny by telling you the someone actually set a Madison bus on fire years ago.
