Dog Day Afternoon

I'm sitting here dog/cat/house sitting for my sister and her husband - as they are off to a weekend getaway. I wished that I was going away for the weekend.

As I reflect over my "duties" I realize that in every house that my sister has lived in - I have stayed overnight with the dog atleast once. I guess I'm just a reliable sitter. I'm THAT good!!

It's so quiet out here. Even the bus ride home was so much more peaceful than my regular route. This weekend is going to be like a mini-vacation for me. It'll be very relaxing and easy-going.

Tomorrow after work we are heading downtown to the final round robin of the FIFA U-20 games going on here in Ottawa (and all over the country). It is quite the phenomenon. We are seeing a double-header: Argentina vs. Korea & Brazil vs. USA. We are cheering for the South American teams because we know how intense and talented they all are. I will have pictures and details tomorrow night!

Stay tuned...
