Our week

Michael headed back to school on Monday morning this week, and I started my first week as full-time at the hotel. So far Michael likes his professors and thinks he will enjoy the semester.

Full time isn't terrible, after all it is only 8 more hours than what I usually work. However, I don't usually work Mondays and this monday was incredibly hectic for me. Apparently Tues-thurs are the tame days. Here's a funny thought, this time last year I was working 4 hours a week at Jay C, what a difference a year (and actual bills) makes.

This week was exceptionally cold up here. The temperature was actually -13 one day with a windchill it felt like -27. So, I spent most of the week trying to stay in and stay warm. It was so cold that my car didn't even want to go out. On Thursday I couldn't get my doors open, and had to have someone from the hotel come pick me up, because Michael had a class. Friday I was going to pick Michael up from class, eat at Qudoba, and drop him back at school for his nect class, but my car really just didn't feel like going anywhere. My battery was dead. So, lunch was out. We finally got my car to start with a jump. But today, bless her battery, she wouldn't start yet again. I cannot tell you how thrilled Michael was to take me to work at 6am, but nonetheless he did so lovingly!

As for fun things this weekend...we spent the vast majority of our time catching up on all of the 24 episodes that we recorded, watch My girl, made calzones, did some grocery shopping, and played solitaire together. Our primary objective for the weekend: STAY WARM!

I am off tomorrow for MLK day, and Michael's room mate from last year is coming up to hang out with Michael tonight. We both are really fond of Dustin, and he always brings fun board games for us to play with. Tonight we will serve Dustin Hunan pork and rice. That is my favorite Chinese dish!
