This last weekend passed by all too quickly. I spent Friday evening and most of Saturday running errands all over Orem and Provo. My parents had given me a gift card to Sams Club, so I stocked up on groceries for work. (I had to have some apples and pudding cups to go with my peanut butter and honey sandwiches, obviously.) I spend way too much at the campus vending machines to justify not wanting to find a better price for TGI Friday’s potato skins. Buying them from Sams, I save over $.40/bag. Now if I sell them to my co-workers at $.25 …
I was invited to go to Nevada next weekend to help with the Obama campaign in Elko. While I really would have liked to help out — especially since I might have been able to meet Senator Obama in person, it didn’t look like it would fit into my schedule. Leaving town for three days really isn’t an option with four computer science courses. Shame really; there aren’t too many chances to participate in a presidential election.
It will be interesting to see how things shake out in the primary in Michigan tomorrow. With Obama taking Iowa and Clinton winning the New Hampshire primary, Michigan, South Carolina and Nevada are extremely critical for the candidates from both parties.
On a lighter note, there were new episodes of Prison Break and the Sarah Connor Chronicles on tonight. I just hope the writers’ strike ends soon. American Idol begins tomorrow, but even that won’t offset the lack of new content when the current series run out of scripted episodes.
