ok so now i am completely confused and disoriented. dinner at the UC was good tonight? what? and a sunday night no less? the sunday night after thanksgiving break? the night that people are least likely to eat at the UC because their parents took them out to dinner before dropping them off or they grabbed some Burger King on the way into town or would just rather have Wawa instead of silver tin containers of crap. but no! amazing! incredible! unbelievable! the food was good! and the thing was that all the entrees were good. couldnt they have saved some of the good entrees for later in the week instead of blowing it all on one night?

first off: spareribs. i didnt expect much, but the meat was actually good and the sauce was good and the spices were good. definitely messy and had a short-lived term of service on my platter due to the fact that i was wearing my new (totally sweet and awesome and warm and soft) fleece jacket and i had letters on the table that i didnt want to get messy. so those were good. second: chicken nuggets. these were a favourite the last time they had them and they were brought back tonight unexpectedly. a pleasent surprise. thirdly: au gratin potatos. normally nothing special, so i was hesitant to even have the dining services worker plop them on my plate. once again, pleasantly suprised, they actually had cheese in them! i thought that was what au gratin meant, but the past record of their ability to complete this task is not so good. so yes there was cheese and it was good. good enough for seconds!!! gasp!!!

so does this mean my faith has been restored in the dining services and that i can trust them to produce reliably edible and tasty food? no of course not. trust is not restored in one day. nor was Rome built in one day. speaking of Rome, I've decided that Diocletian was my least favourite emperor (early 300s AD). Vespasian and Trajan are up there, and of course Nero, but i think that is just a cop-out answer. so Diocletian it is.

and yes, it has been determined that Kelsey Pristach is working at the UC!!! crazy nuts stuff! not really sure how i should address the issue, if at all, but it was an interesting experience to read "KELSEY" on the nametag of the card swiping girl. very weird.

Redskins why do you suck.
