monday, to madison

woke around 5:30, got back to work on the drawing. took seth out for a brief walk, then packed while di took seth to my folks' house. di returned, we packed the car, and took off to pick up mat from the howard street station. stopped to get chai, then to fedex the disk to patagonia and to make films for my madison print. took to the highways. di plugged in the GPS unit her brother had given us for christmas, and figured out how to use it. we headed north and then west, stopping to get crappy burger king veggie burgers. arrived in madison around 12:45.

heather met up with us, and we spent the afternoon slowly getting set in the humanities building. mat and i cut films, di started working on her copper plate with ana, heather's roommate. we got coffee and snacks mid-afternoon.

the obama benefit, featuring andrew bird and dianogah, was confirmed and announced today.

by 8pm, we were done for the day, and went to 'the weary traveler' with heather, matt reedy, ana, and erin. i had the half-pound "bad breath burger", with cottage cheese on it. it was amazing. ginger beer.

i haven't mentioned how crappin cold it was all day. sub-zero. painful.

upon leaving the restaurant, we found ana's car had been towed, but was retrieved from a nearby side street. we all drove back to ana's and heather's place, played with the cat, and went to bed.

i had good dreams, though i don't remember them.
