Chilly May

In addition to the copious amounts of rain we've been getting, it's also been pretty cold here. Right now it's around 50 and breezy. I wore socks to bed this morning and slept with 2 blankets! I'm sure it won't last forever, but I'm glad now that I didn't put all my winter clothes in storage! Ah, Michigan!

Vic's mom left for an Alaskan cruise today. And didn't take me. I don't think my going was actually ever under consideration, but still it would've been nice to be asked. Every year Vic & I try to take one really big vacation (last year it was a week in London), but I think this year we're going to take a lot of smaller trips instead. We'd really like to explore Michigan a bit, so we're going to head out for a lot of daytrips and a few weekenders all around the state. This way we'll also be able to do some work on the house and hopefully save some $$ for our bigger trip in 2007 (location still to be determined).

The Pistons play the Cavs tonight in Cleveland. It's win or go home for the Pistons, but if they have to lose I can't think of a better team to lose to. Still, I'm really rooting for the Pistons to win and continue on to the finals. Good thing Vic will be at work tonight because I predict a lot of screaming at the TV. Go Pistons!

What is the last thing you had to have repaired?
I recently broke my mechanical pencil and will have to fix it tonight because it's the pencil I use to work on puzzles while at work. I need that pencil!!

If someone gave you $2,000 with the stipulation that you had to spend half of it on yourself and give the rest to charity, where would you spend the $1,000 and which charity would receive your remaining $1,000?
I would spend the money on a trip to Mackinac Island and give the remainder to an animal organization like the humane society or an animal rescue group.

On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being highest, how athletic are you?
I'm sorry to say that I'm an abysmal 1 or 2. I used to be a great runner, but haven't ran in years. Vic & I have committed ourselves to riding our bikes at different metroparks every weekend this Summer if it ever gets warm again! I'm looking forward to that.
