*yawn*

I think being this sleepy on Monday morning means I had a good weekend. And I am pretty sure I did. Jesse's friends, Chris and Elke, visited us from the Netherlands. Jesse picked them up from the Greyhound station on Thursday afternoon. Figure that one out. It was the first time I had met them and am soooo glad they came! Very fun and laid back and funny. And I'm not just saying that because Chris confessed he reads this blog! Hahahahaa... Anyway, it's a good thing they are laid back because as hosts, Jesse and I officially suck. We did some fun stuff, like went to the Dakota Inn Rathskeller for some German food and entertainment and we took them to a shitty mall. Oh and we went to Comerica Park on Friday night. I'm glad I got to know Chris and Elke a little bit and hope they will come back someday!

One of the best parts about this weekend was my birthday present from Joanna came in the mail. As soon as I color a page of the taxidermy coloring book I will scan it and show you. Awesome! I'm still trying to figure out what the wooden cow thing is but it looks pretty on the dining room table. Should it be on the dining room table? The button assortment will be put to good use and some of the repeats will be turned into magnets for the fridge.

The other best part about this weekend was that Jesse and I finally got an electric lawn mower. Because the weather was nice on Saturday all of our neighbors were out mowing their lawns which made ours look even more shitty. I actually volunteered to mow our lawn with the stupid push reel piece of shit (sorry Jesse!) and it sucked. I couldn't even do the back yard because the grass/weeds are so long and the mower was so hard to push. Of course after we bought the electric lawn mower it rained. So the yard still hasn't been mowed. But it will be!! YAY!!

I didn't want to get out of bed this morning and I would have called in "sick" to work today but I knew we had an auditor coming from one of our funders. The audit went really well and all of my bases were covered. Unfortunately, the maintenance department at this agency sucks ass and stuff doesn't get done. For example, two of the shelter units didn't have functioning smoke alarms. Nice.

Back to work.
