A frustrating email on Friday cancelled weekend plans, but we salvaged a decent couple of days. Our first move was to join the TMI crowd for whirly ball on Friday night; Jenelle had never played but really enjoyed the game and the hilarity of watching other people play badly.

Saturday was meant to be a trip north to solidify our baker and enjoy fall colors, but instead the baker we'd arranged a visit with went out of business at 2pm on Friday. As an alternate, we grabbed the two free tickets to the Henry Ford Museum that we'd gotten waaaay back in May from IMDC and hit the museum. It was a pretty quiet day in Dearborn, but we saw all of the exhibits about cars and trains and planes and houses and machines. Both of us had been as wee children but not since, so this was both a return to our youth and an interesting display of history. In the afternoon we watched the Tigers' clinch the ALCS and then headed to Caroline's to watch Michigan clinch victory over Penn State. There were about a dozen people there and it really was a fun time. Sunday was like a regular old day... neither of us had excessive work or meetings, so we walked in the Arb, did some grocery shopping, made pasta fagioli for dinner, and had a grand time.

Today started fast and furious with another Monday morning interview; Brunswick reps were on Kresge 3 in the interview suites, and I was on the list. I think the interview went well - my enthusiasm for this industry is significant and well documented, which I think reflected in my level of energy and eagerness to participate. Afterwards, a marathon IPD meeting that included lunch and a trip to the hardware store, an MBA first.
