Thursday, April 01, 2004 April Fool's Day Only in Michigan would the weather start playing April fool's jokes. After the best night of swing in three weeks, including some semi-successful attempts by yours truly to learn how to lead (a rather disconcerting prospect for a follow--it feels like everything's backwards), Laura the Hun and I decided to go to Bubble Island and gratify my recent obsession with Thai iced tea. (There's some backstory to this though--I've fastiously avoided Bubble Island for years since it's the campus "Asian hangout" and my presence there would seem cliché. That and I strongly dislike bubble tea. But Thai iced tea has become my latest drink addiction, and they have the best I've discovered in town. Does this make me a tool? Just another person to jump on the bandwagon?) Along the way, we ran into Garth, a guy from church I'm not sure that I've ever really talked to. Serendipity. The three of us had a wonderful conversation and I discovered my first impression of him as a quiet type wasn't quite correct: he's a third-year law student and Type A personality who grew up in Africa with missionary parents and still has culture shock at times. And I may have convinced him to try dancing (something that always makes me happy). Walking home from Bubble Island, Laura realized that it was snowing. In April. Shouldn't we be well into spring at this point? But God apparently wanted to get in on the April fool's festivities himself. Don't believe anyone who tells you he doesn't have a sense of humor. ^ Top | 1:15 AM | | |
