We collected a whole bunch of 3-2 records and a new judge for the top of our scratch list!  Good times.<\/p>\n<p>Outside of debate rounds and performance, this weekend was a darn good time.  The team had a great time hanging out and our ride back involved epic games of Ghost that both came down to the final letter.  I got a chance to see Brandzy, breaking our longest-ever streak apart, hanging out literally all night at IHOP and wondering whether or not we actually existed.  Then Fish\/Madster came over and we all celebrated the end of Daylight Saving(s) Time.  Would that Jaque were here to really put some pep into it, but I guess he always liked Spring Forward day more because of its implications for early evening activity than the mere opportunity for a &#8220;free&#8221; hour of sleep.<\/p>\n<p>I have discovered a new favoritish place in town, namely the Palace Diner in New Brunswick that&#8217;s just a hole-in-the-wall breakfast\/lunch joint operated by an (at least today) ornery but efficient old gentleman.  I&#8217;m not eating out a whole ton these days, but I might a bit more if I start incorporating the Palace into the mix.  I was long overdue to find an affordable breakfast spot in this state, having repeatedly come up empty in Princeton.<\/p>\n<p>I have spent most of the weekend being way too cold or a little too warm.  My throat is scratchy, but still stable.  My thoughts are scattered and they&#8217;re cloudy.  I found the end of <i>Point Counter Point<\/i> particularly poignant on this of all days.  The light is failing early and I am overdue to take my leave.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is an albino water buffalo: I post it in lieu of a picture I took of Fish &#038; the Madster while they were here for almost a day which they asked me to refrain from posting.
