Today, I took the metro to College Park Station and met my mom and her friend, Ms. Toni. After we met up we went to the Maryland vs. Iowa football game. It was a great game and just like last time our seats were at the 50 yard line! But we left at halftime because it was simply too cold. While there, I enjoyed some pizza, fries, and three beers. After the game, we went to a Mexican restaurant called Azteca, which is an excellent spot that I am familiar with because there is another location in North Carolina. At Azteca, my mom and I split some nachos, and the group, my mom, Ms. Toni, Mr. Martin (another friend of my mom’s), and I, enjoyed some fantastic Mexican food. Fun fact: Mr. Martin played for the Washington Redskins, won a Super Bowl, and graduated from Georgetown Law School. It was an honor to share a meal with someone so accomplished. I could not help but reflect on how many connections my mom has because she is truly a people person and her network is incredible. After dinner, I was craving apple pie, but we could not think of a place that sold it. So, I walked to McDonald’s and treated myself to an apple pie and ice cream. When I got back home, I ended the day with a nap.
