"So, I figured, we'd never be this close to Corn Palace again, so we had to take the detour."
If you don't believe I ever heard a grown man say that, do you really think I could make that up?

The week of MCAS, the schedule was all screwy, so my math class met 4 times and everyone else met only 1 or 2 times, so we spent a lot of time playing assorted party games like Crack the Case and Four Ways. (No Pictionary, thank God ...)

So, the teacher leaves his poker game, unlocks his cabinet, and pulls out at Mason jar of pickled corn. (Who locks up their pickled corn???) He orders someone to go find a Geometry book, reads off a problem about finding the surface area of the red kernels in the Corn Palace mural, and begins his story.

[Paraphrase begin] So, my friend was moving the California, and I was helping, and we were making a cross country trip of it. When we were in South Dakota, there were only 3 things on the map to visit: Mt. Rushmore, something weird, and Corn Palace. I remembered corn palace from this book, so I was like, we'd never be this close to Corn Palace again, so we had to take the detour. [End paraphrase]

The worst part? I think he was proud of this story.

So, I spent my whole weekend doing projects due this week except the part I spent sweating and burning at graduation because they really are not very nice to the band about the arrangement and how long we have to be there, playing for the people filtering in.

It was like 90 yesterday, and apparently, there are only 2 other people who sweat disturbingly a lot in the band, are we all suffered. Whereas the dude next to me had to be forced to accept a half pint bottle of water after 2 hours in the sun.
