Ice Cream and Conversation

Yesterday night, Melissa called me to see if we were doing anything. I called Matt and we met at Stephansplatz, to look for something to do. We took the U-Bahn to Ann's house (Our Holocaust/Lit. professor) and invited her along.
We started walking down her street, looking for ice cream. We walked for about 10 or 15 minutes and then, seeing no ice cream, decided to turn around. What we didn't realize was that there's an ice cream place 1 block down, in the opposite way we were walking. However, we finally stumbled upon it and ordered some delicious ice cream sundaes.
Afterwards, we searched for Sturm, but were unsuccessful, so we decided to have a glass of wine at a place near Ann's.
We talked for a while about Austria's very generous maternity leave (up to 2 years, and job guarantee when you return), as well as our course subject and must-see sites in Austria.
After that, we went back to Ann's apartment, where we ate delicious food and talked until late. But not too late, because I didn't want to miss our train home.
When Melanie and I were walking home, we ran into groups of young partyers, some of which were blocking the sidewalk on a busy street, so I had to push through them and step over broken bottles and who-knows-what-else on the ground.
All in all, it was a fun night, even though I didn't get much homework done.
