I can't think of a better way I could have ended the week either. Thursday night Katie and I went on a date. We went to dinner, coffee, and a movie (classic date style). I had a great time, and it really was the perfect last night in town. The next day before I left I had lunch with Katie and then stopped by the Brass Razoo to say goodbye to Kylee. It really is goodbye for a long time too, since she's moving to Kansas. I'm going to miss her when she's all the way over in the midwest.
The best thing happened right before I left town. I got a drink at the flying m before heading out of town, and the lady right behind me stepped up to the counter and said, "Are you ready for me?" to the barista. They said yes, and then she said the best possible thing she could have said: Six-Shot Mondo Mars Bar. It was like the end of a book or movie, where a ridiculous moment from the past is linked back to the end of the book, and the last sentence or line hits you when you're least expecting it. But it's the perfect ending. I would explain further, but my cousin and I are leaving right now to go to a movie.
