You know that song by The Fray that starts off "I found God, on the corner of First and Amistad"? Well, there really is such an intersection. It's in the town of Quemado, Texas, right near the Mexico border. So if you've been looking for God, now you know where he's at.

Interesting story about The Fray: they actually performed at Hope College my freshman year. Before they arrived, they'd sent a demo cd with about 3 songs on it that you could pick up in the student union and see if they were someone you might want to go see. I didn't care for the cd, so I didn't go (I still don't care for The Fray. I don't feel like I missed much). I had a friend who did though, and when Cable Car became a huge hit a couple years later, she liked to point out that no one would go with her to see this now world famous band.


So yesterday, my original plans were to go to a place called Main Event up in north austin. Arcade games, bowling, laser tag, mini-golf. Sounded like a cool place. I got there and it was A) packed and B) crawling with 10 year olds. No thanks. So I went to Dave and Busters instead, which had way less of a crowd and way less children. I was there for a few hours, it was fun. Took myself out to dinner afterwards (since it was like 9 by this point) to Red Lobster. Mmm, seafood. Overall, it was a good birthday I think.
