It's the Friday before a holiday weekend! Monday is Memorial Day, and we get it off, and I am very happy about that. Of course, most of the people who work on campus seem to have taken today off in order to get a jump start on the weekend, so it's like a ghost town around here. But that's okay. I'll only miss one of them (Sarah, I'm giving you a big exaggerated Dale sigh complete with puppy dog droopy eyes over here). And my weekend gets to start at 4:00 today, so that isn't too bad.

So I think Bernie is teaching Willow some new tricks. I've had her for 9 months now, and for the first time in all of those months she rolled on her back in the grass yesterday. Bernie does that at least twice every single time I take the dogs out, but Willow never had. But yesterday she did it twice. And of course I didn't have my camera with me either time, dangit. I took the camera out with me the third time, and she didn't do it. Of course. Anyway, it was very cute. She was a very insecure, neurotic dog when I got her (and okay, she still is a bit neurotic), but it seems like she is finally starting to relax and figure out what it's like to be a happy, well cared for dog who can sometimes enjoy life, and I love that. Now if only Bernie could teach her to be a bit quieter. I'll have to get him working on that.

Sarah and I started roller skating during lunch again. Yay! It's a very fun way to get some exercise and I'm very happy that she likes it as much as I do. And, even more good news, Jamie finally got himself some skates too! Sarah called in sick today (still sad about that, by the way), but Jamie is here, so we'll be skating around the gym today without her. And it's his first day on these skates, so she's missing some serious comedic potential. Sigh. I think we'll manage to have fun without her, though. :)

Okay, I should get back to work. I hope you all have a great holiday weekend! I'll be spending part of it at my sister's house for a picnic, and will of course be spending a large chunk of it playing my Sims, so I'll love every minute of it.

Currently reading: Marley & Me, by John Grogan (borrowed from Sarah)
Currently listening: Yahoo radio. They're playing "Bad" by U2 at this second
Current watch (you know I'm still excited about those): I'm wearing a Tigger watch today. It is very cute.
Currently watching: nothing, 'cause I'm at work, but I got to start watching this last season of Smallville last night, which was very exciting. Clark is such a cutie
