Back To Dearborn

Time: 10:07pm
Mood: Exhausted
Song of the moment: Franz Ferdinand - Ulysses

April is fast becoming the most stressful month of the year! So much as been going on at work that I really haven't found the time to prepare for my upcoming trip in May, except for two weekend when Jimmy and I made the trip downtown to MEC to buy some trip supplies - ended up spending $200+ on stuff! haha! But any chance I am able to squeeze in some down time I just want to laze around and do nothing. Like last weekend - Easter weekend - I didn't even go to church! I've digressing from a "seasonal" Catholic (only going to church during seasonal occasions) to a "wedding" Catholic (only going to chuch for weddings). I feel awful about that.

As I mentioned before, work has been nuts. I had to do a major presentation last week for a major flooring manufacturer - my first one since I started working here. It went really well - it was actually more of a discussion than a presentation, but still, I was nervous! I'm back in Windsor this week for work (sarcastic *yay*) to run some material trials. I'm stressed about the trials because things don't seem to be going the way I would like them to, and it might mean I have to come back next week Monday to finish off the trials. I really don't want to do that! On top of that (to add to the pressure), the materials I'm running need to be submitted for testing - a test that I'm flying out to view. Plane tickets are already booked, so the clock is ticking on this! Ahhh!!

So I took a trip over to Dearborn today - I haven't been there since I quit PMP. Why did I go? I had to buy some flooring products from Home Depot. Unfortunately they don't sell that product in the Canadian Home Depot, but they sell it in the States. So I figured, since I was already in Windsor, might as well drive over and buy it. So I was at the Home Depot, walking towards the flooring product section when all of a sudden this crusty man walked by me and said "Girl! You know you're sexy!" WTF?!? ROFLMAO! The moment he walked away I couldn't help but burst out laughing. Most hilarous thing ever! Stuff like that could only happen in Detroit! haha!

I ended up meeting with Ruby for dinner. I haven't seen here since I stopped coming down to Detroit. It was great seeing her again :D I always like seeing old friends!

*sigh* 3 more days until I can go home....
