Procrastinatin'

So I promised myself that I would not update the blog until I finish my essays, and I have already broken that promise. :( I'll make myself feel better by not really writing about important differences between the UK and the USA (I have a lot of topics to share). Quick update nonetheless.

• I have essays to write, and I'm absolutely dreading one that has no relevance to my aspirational career goals. Poop.
• Next week Dan and I are going to Scotland for two nights and two days. Dan will be working at the Edinburgh office while I meander about in Edinburgh--overwhelming advice is to just do a pub crawl. Mmm... two days of pub crawling. Probably a bad idea, and will further depress me. I'll probably see another castle too. I should get a book, or borrow a book on what to do in Scotland. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow.
• Next week is also the Super Bowl!!! It seems I'll keep up tradition, hosting Eileen's 7th Annual Super Bowl Party here in Enfield (woot!). It's also the daunting task of trying to figure out what to cook--especially daunting since it will mostly be an entire day affair as the Super Bowl is not going to be shown till 11:30pm GMT!!! So not only do I have to cook dinner, but I probably need some nibbley bits. Oh and did I mention that they sometimes don't have the ingredients I am looking for? I am also uncertain as to what theme I should go for, if any. Naturally (once I get these stupid essays out of the way), I'll come up with something fantastic causing you lot back in the States to wish you partook in this year's Super Bowl party! Don't worry, it happens every year. :) I'm open to suggestions/ideas for themes and recipes--leave it in the comments.
  

Ok, now time to get to work. Peace!
