I've had a really good weekend so far. I work tomorrow morning at 5:30 am, so it feels like my weekend ends today. At any rate, it's been wonderful.
On Friday, I really wanted to sleep in. However, we're re-doing the roof and that started bright and early. BRIGHT and early. It woke me up at 6:50. Sad day. But I started this massive deep clean of my room. I want to be able to use my desk--I've never used it because I've always piled stuff in it. 21 years worth of stuff. I'm cleaning it out! I also helped clean up shingles that Dad and Chris tossed down. That was not fun--I really don't like shingles. At least I wasn't on the roof...so dang hot.
Friday night I babysat for a few hours. It was super easy--we played Monopoly for what seemed like forever, and then just chilled. I helped Meghan put some music on her iPod. Exciting stuff.
I woke up at 6 this morning, got dressed, and left for Madison at 6:30. I made it to Madison at about 8:45. Missy and I then wandered around--did some shopping, etc. We had an early lunch at about 10:30 (Buffalo Wild Wings...mmm!) and then we went sailing! Missy has been taking sailing lessons this summer, and she took me out on Lake Mendota. There wasn't a whole lot of wind...at all...but we had a good time. The weather was gorgeous, and it was really nice to just hang out and catch up with Missy. Well...for me it was hanging out...for Missy it was a lot of work. But it was still fun. Our only problem was when we needed to put the boat back. We got to the dock, but weren't sure where I should sit while Missy was taking everything down. We really struggled with tying the boat to the dock. Our boat almost tipped completely. I definitely ended up in the water, which felt pretty great actually. But then I couldn't get back on the boat, or the dock, so I had to swim to shore. I just about cried from laughing so hard--I'm pretty sure it was funny for everyone to watch too.
After sailing, we got ice cream and sat outside in the sun. It was wonderful--super relaxing, and not TOO hot. We went back to Missy's apartment, and I left for home around 3:15ish.
Now I can see that I am sunburned--it just showed up. Earlier Missy and I talked about the fact that she was clearly a little burned, and I looked fine. Not sure why my burn is always delayed, but it did show up. Oh well, it'll fade. And maybe I'll actually get tan? Ha.
All-in-all, it was a really great time. I'm exhausted, which is good because I have to go to bed in a few hours. I'm getting really tired of waking up early for work--going back to Ripon will be amazing. I'll be able to sleep in and everything--pretty sure my classes don't start until 10. That'll be great.
