bearin' down in t-town.

since february 14th, it's been the tale of two tings and two soon-to-be quinns. darren arrived in phoenix early for a work trip, the three of us flew together out to florida for the friend's reunion, and then meg joined us all on the flight back to phoenix for another week in the desert (they both had a work conference and extended their stay).

the biggest arizona wildcat basketball fan we know, darren wouldn't dare consider being just two hours away from an important game and not watch it live, sooo we woke up bright and early saturday morning and road tripped to tucson. danny and i were happy to show our school spirit and participate in the campus-wide "red out," but we skipped the game an snagged a great patio table at frog & firkin, the best place to watch a game on university blvd.

after the cats beat ucla, darren and meg joined us for a couple of beers before we took meg on a tipsy tour of the UofA. i really love that danny and i along with so many of our friends share that part of our life. being on campus means non-stop reminiscing, eating all the same things we did back then, driving down greek row and getting all nostalgic watching the current students. ahhh... i love it all. just being on campus makes us incredibly happy.
