I had such a great day yesterday. I awoke at 7:15 a.m., unable to go back to sleep, so I put gas in my car down on 8th Street and then headed across the river into Covington. There is an excellent diner off 12th Street, The Anchor Grill. Some of the best food I’ve ever had. I ordered a cup of coffee and some dry toast, and I sat and worked on my Greek for a while. Afterwards I went to Mariemont, Ohio, a quaint little town set along the river with the backdrop of the Indian hills. I went to the small chapel there and worked on my speaking message for Tuesday night—“The Christian Hope”—and then went to the Starbucks there in town. I returned to campus and spent some good time with my friend Kyle, and then Amanda and I went to Loveland to go to an art show. Such fantastic artwork. My friend Sarah (not to be confused with Faikham, my Thai friend, who is named Sa-Rah) came along with us, because she has a friend with a studio there. Afterwards, I went to my friend Isaac’s apartment. He was throwing a party, and a lot of people from work were there. We hung out, sat around, talked, laughed, told stories. Pulled pranks. It was great. I spent the night at my friend Justin’s condo, which is downtown and overlooking the Ohio River and Newport, Kentucky. Sa-Rah, Jessie, and Amanda came along, and Sa-Rah fixed us some Thai food. It was delicious. Here is a picture of Sa-Rah after shouting at me, “Do you know how to use a knife?!” in her precious Thai accent:
