Finally it's Friday. What a grand day! It's more awesome now that work is over. Today was boring and slow.

It started out with a pretty great sleep. We slept in a bit so we didn't do anything fancy for breakfast. Just cereal, but I love cereal so thats not so bad.

Work seemed to last forever. Nothing happened. There really isn't much else to say. I could talk about how my boss blames everyone else for her own problems. One interesting thing happened. There will be a day in about a week and a half were a bunch of diabetic patients will be coming in and seeing a doctor. They needed someone to take blood pressure, blood sugar, weight, and pulse rate. I told them that I have done blood sugar before, back when I took one year of an LPN program. They jumped all over that. Another woman took me into a room, where I practiced taking BP, and blood sugars. I am now officially going to be doing that on real people. It's scary how they will let me do that. I am not qualified at all. That's the kind of place we live in.

The weather was really nice today, so after work, we went for a walk. It was a little windy but it was nice to get out of the apartment and enjoy the outside. Now it has clouded over. I really hope the weather is good for when Mom and Dad are out here.

I am so excited to see them again. They will be arriving at 12:30pm tomorrow. Still not sure what we will do, but I figure we can start with a walk around town, show them the sites around here, take them to our place, show them the fabulous view. I know Mom really wants to see Kitty again. She will probably cuddle with her for a few hours. We plan on going kayaking if the weather holds out. I hope we see a whale. That would make the trip out here worth it I think.

Right now, Tyler is making some popcorn, I'm watching the news. I really can't stand watching all that news about the oil spill. All those pictures about the birds covered in oil...isn't any one doing something for them? It makes me sooo soo sad. Why don't we see any news footage of people cleaning all those poor animals off. It's not fair to them that because of something stupid people did, they all have to suffer and die. It sickens me!! My head hurts now.

Good thing Kitten is so cute. She makes me feel better, as does Tyler.
