Thanksgiving vacation has come and gone. A HUUUGE meal was prepared and halfway-consumed (seriously, there was about 5x the food we needed and at least 2 bottles of wine per person - we do not take holiday meals lightly around here, people). And the rest of the weekend - except for some excursions out to Crown Street's nightlife establishments, one of which found us narrowly avoiding a deadly stabbing - was basically spent playing long extended games of Taboo.
Let it not be said that YLS students are competitive - in the classroom. But when it comes to board/group games, some of our crowd can get downright intense! [Maybe it's easier to trash-talk when you're all good friends & comfortabably able to make fun of each other's game-playing idiosyncracies...and inebriated by leftover wine...] We probably could have used an Olympics-level arbiter on a few close scoring calls. :)
All-in-all, a super-successful weekend. Very little academic work got done. But a holiday plane ticket got booked, we tried out the new Mexican place across the street (YUMM!), and I did my laundry. Baby steps.
