Today was fairly relaxing and I was able to get a decent amount of homework done but the best part of the night was having dinner at our professors' house. Anne and John live about a half hour away and invited us for a home cooked meal of chicken, potatoes and salad. It was delicious. Shortbread and ice cream were for dessert. Of course, we all had to eat by their rule which is that spoons are only allowed to scoop up the ice cream when the shortbread is all gone. :) It was nice spending time with everyone in their cute little living room.
Then, of course everyone wanted to find a place to watch the Super Bowl. However, a lot of places are charging a cover and most of the pubs aren't open past eleven. It costs 25 pounds just to get into the Hard Rock Cafe tonight! So, a bunch of people are just watching on the grainy TV in the common room. Although, since the BBC is airing it, it isn't the same game that everyone in America is watching. Instead of commercials, we get to listen to past Super Bowl moments and British commentary which primarily consists of the annoucers explaining the rules. Apparently they had to go over the purpose of the coin toss.
