Highlights of Lowlights

I have just spent the second half of my winter break in Evansville and "Only god knows how to find me" Saginaw Michigan. Some highlights of my wintery life here the past two weeks:

While buying some beer at the liquor store, the cashier (Whom for the sake of this story, we shall call Gene) grabs my ID, looks at the state i'm from and exclaims, "Where you from in Nevada?" I reply, "Um..Las Vegas." Gene says, "Oh shit! I married one of my wives in Las Vegas!"

Thank you Evansville.

My favorite and coincidentally future beholding favorite moment in Saginaw came when I sat down to watch my school's performance of Courtship and Valentine's Day. Now, we had set our coats in the best seats we could find an hour before the doors opened since we were helping set up the show. When it came time to sit I was next to my good friend Nick Steen, and even in the fifth row center of the orchestra seating I managed to place my coat behind a seat that, of course, got taken up by a 6 and a half foot man. To this I simply said "This is my life...always sitting behind the tall guy." To this Nick replied, "Riley...you should have a blog."

And so it shall be.
