Exotic weekend away in...South Bend?

So it's fall break at Notre Dame - a week off from classes and commitments - that gives hardworking students time to travel somewhere exotic and relax...or alternatively, move five-minutes down the street to apartment-sit for a friend. So Jennifer and I, determined to make the most of any situation, moved into a friends loft in downtown to take care of his new kitten and live it up for a few days. It turned out to be an awesome weekend away, with time spent relaxing in the city, sampling the night-life, and realizing that we are maybe not yet ready for a pet. It also meant we were walking distance from the Notre Dame football stadium, and hence all set for our first Irish football experience against those troublesome out-of-towners from UCLA. An amazingly close game ensued, complete with plenty of Rudy impressions and a last second game winning touchdown pass. All in all it was an afternoon to remember.
