I'm back!

Jessica and I returned from our weekend getaway to Cincinnati for our visit with Brittany. We departed from my house around 10:30 am on Saturday morning and arrived at Brittany's suburban apartment around noon-ish [maybe a little before]. We hung out in the apartment for a little while and then headed out to Taco Bell for some lunch. We left the T.B. after we finished our meals and went to the Cincinnati Art Museum for a day of culture.

After we finished walking all over the Museum [see Facebook for pictures!], we went to the IKEA store [where I found my "dream kitchen"] and walked all over looking at all of the cheap-ish Swedish-made furniture and decorations.

We left Sweden and went to the Champps bar to watch the OSU/USC game, which OSU lost because they stopped fighting shortly after 1/2 time! After our disappointment, we drove back to Brittany's house and watched some TV for a few hours before finally deciding that it was bedtime [sometime around 2:30 am, I think].

This morning, we went to the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens. We thought we got to park for free [thus saving $6.50 in parking fees] and were feeling pretty good about that, until we were leaving the parking lot and found out that they collect their fees while you're on your way out.

We walked all over the zoo and looked at as many of the amazing animals as we could squeeze in [see Myspace for pictures]. After about 5 hours of walking, we decided it was time to return to the apartment. After we all relaxed for about an hour, Jessica and I collected our stuff and headed home. We got home around 8:15 pm.

Right now, I'm currently trying to upload my pictures to Facebook and Myspace and it's taking FOREVER! I didn't realize that I had taken that many! So, you can check the pics out, but I can't garuntee that they will all be posted until tomorrow, but I do have quite a few up. :)

Now, after a long and tiring, but AMAZING weekend, I will be heading to bed shortly.
