It was a weekend

It rained this weekend. A lot. My car almost got swept off the road twice. I made it to Japanica for Hibachi grill food along with 12 others to celebrate my birthday, Randy's birthday and Al's birthday. Steph couldn't make it - she had a party to attend with her sister for Uline. I also went bicycle riding on Saturday. Worked great until I crashed into Chip. We rode to a bike shop to get my bike repaired while he wiped off his bloody leg. Then I got two support calls from work. I had to cut the ride short, turn around, and dock my laptop at a Cousin's Subs to fix these issues before returning home. On Sunday, I had enough time to mow the grass and remove two dead baby birds from my yard in between thunder storms. We also went to Barns and Noble to plan our trip to California next week.

Busy weekend

This weekends activities included going to the Q2 Promotion Party for work. It was a great time. I only got to visit with colleagues for about 1.5 hours due to a Sex and the City engagement at the Magestic in Brookfield. While I'm against meals in movie theatres, I broke down for some tuna cracker something or other since it was 9:30 and I had not eaten since noon (and I never eat breakfast). Suffice it to say, the movie was great - much like the series. On Saturday I went to the Brewer game with my cousin Calloway and 2 of his coworkers. We had a catered meal and special seats in the Dew Deck and got to see Ben Sheets win another victory as the Brewers beat the Astros. Unfortunately, the Cubs won earlier that day, too. Then it was on to the Miller Ride for the Arts. Stephanie and I biked 25 miles then visited my folks, then went to Loppnow Daughter's Greenhouses to buy plants, then ate at A&W, then went home to do yard work for 4 hours. What a weekend! I'm going to bed!
