Money

I don't understand it. You can go to almost any bank in Ontario (in my experience) and get US currency. But I just got back from my bank, they don't have CDN currency. And the woman at the counter said that she has called around to other banks for other people and no one seems to have it. That makes no sense to me...Canada is only a 3 hour drive away! Ah well, life goes on.

Weekend

This morning I was up at 5 am, long before the sun. I got in my car and headed west in the drizzling rain. I had to go to customs this morning to renew my work visa. After a reasonably short wait at the border I headed to Grand Rapids, back to work. When I got home I was exhausted and hungry, I'd had an egg McMuffin at 7, but nothing since then. For some reason driving never makes me hungry. So I made a sandwich then went to bed. But once I got to bed I couldn't sleep. So I got up again, put on a heavy sweater (its freezing out) and headed to UM. Catch up on my surfing.

Now I'm drinking my coffee and surfing along. Which reminds me, I made my dad happy this weekend. At my aunt and uncle's house I had a cup of coffee. He looked at me, then said, "you've started drinking coffee?! It's about time!" Hee hee, he's been trying to get me to drink coffee for years.

Wheels!

I have wheels again! My car was in the shop this past week for some much belated body work. So for seven days I've been without wheels, bumming rides from my roomie, walking and taking the bus around town. But this morning I picked up my car, he looks so shiny and new, and they even vacuumed the inside for me. It's great to have wheels again :)

Online Melissas

Ok, just had to share this one. I was looking up URLs with my name in them, geeky, I know, when I stumbled across this one "Melissa Net." dedicated to the Melissas of the world. Hee hee. :)
