I had an hour to kill on campus today, so I decided to take advantage of the nice weather (smirk) and soak up some sun (alliteration) on the Mayer Quad. It was actually pretty nice because the ground itself was pretty warm. Furthermore, this particular quad has little foothills at two of the corners (I don't know why), and they sheilded me from some of the wind.

I was just about to settle into a nice relaxing nap in public, when I am attacked by a rabid dog. At least that is what I thought at first, I wasn't sure what to think...something kicked me in the head and was now scrambling on me. I sat up as much as I could, only to be greeted with an OshKosh B'Gosh clad butt lying prone on top of me. What happened is this little kid's mom took him to play on the grass, but since he is like 2 feet tall and I am 1 foot tall (when lying down), he couldn't see over the foothill and basically just ran over me. Even though he trampled me and he didn't know any English (although I got a nice Italian apology and hug from his mom), he was pretty cool. We sword fought with dead branches and then I gave him a ride on my shoulders.
