Recipe for fun:

Decide to drive to TC at 8:15 at night and be on the road by 8:30. Play "would you rather games" with friends until they become so completely morbid you begin to question if you once had morals. Sleep on a couch that is actually a puzzle. Drink great coffee and leave for home during a fluffy & lazy, but steady, snowfall. Make friends at AAA. Meet three tow truck drivers. Get two flat tires. Break two rims. Call friends from high school for rides when they haven't heard from you in a year. Get animal cracker mush on your boots.  Eat Bob Evans and get home 15 hours later than planned. All while wearing the same clothes. 

Then taking a heavenly shower.
