First of all, I see no problem with being forever alone.
Second of all...I will admit that the zombie was pretty rad.
But what was I doing so far down south? Well, one of the many perks to going to a rather large Christian university is that we have a four-day Easter break. Most college kids elected to head home and spend Easter with their families, but as I live 10-11 hours away, my sweet friend Emily decided to spirit me away down to San Antonio, her hometown, for the long weekend.
Flower wreaths for the upcoming Fiesta holiday!
That doesn't explain the abundance of boyfriends. Honestly, I have no idea where that plot began.
It all started with a chance meeting of Emily's friend Jesus (pronounced HAY-soos) at the local movie theater.
And went downhill from there.
I was able to rack up at multiple "boyfriends" a day as Emily and I trekked around the city of San Antonio, visiting her old stomping grounds as well as more touristy areas downtown.
Besides the sudden influx of men in my life, I was thrilled to be able to re-experience San Antonio. I was a young elementary schooler the last time I visited, and there was so much I had forgotten about the beautiful city.
One highlight was the River Walk. As overcrowded as it is, it was one of the only places I really remembered, and I cried out with joy as I descended the stairs leading from the street above to the river.
It was still as beautiful as I remembered it.

Homemade root beer from Schilo's, a restaurant close by the River Walk!
Not to mention the Alamo.
I also got to try my first real breakfast taco while I was there!
But on to the the real mystery! Who were these boyfriends? Ladies and gentlemen, without further ado, here is the ultimate list...of my San Antonio man posse.
1. Jesus
It all began with a prank...
2. Cardboard Spidey
Emily's hashtag: "#spideycouple"
3. Decorative cowboy
This guy probably has to put up with so much.
4. Zombie
Classier than the Walking Dead. This one does impressions too.
5. Ryan
Ryan was such a good sport. He even gave me his CD!
6. Jailbird Joe
I don't associate with this one much.
7. Buc-ee
He just looks so...happy...
What's wrong with you, Maggie? That last one isn't even human! I know, I know. Quite the menagerie, they are. But going home with a college friend proved to be quite the adventure!
Especially when it came to my non-existent romantic life.
[Shout out to the Emily and family for being such gracious hosts and letting me crash in their house for the weekend!]
