This weekend was exactly what I needed. I had a really rough week at work last week and I needed some serious downtime to recover for the week ahead. Plus, it's really looking spring-y around here and that makes me happy.

We had some friends in town over the weekend and Friday we went out for some delicious sushi downtown.
I could eat sushi every single day if it wasn't so expensive and I wouldn't go crazy from mercury poisoning.
The Bella cat is really something. She has adopted a new way of sitting on the couch,
as seen last week. I caught her again this weekend just chillin'.
Belly Fat. The best nickname ever for this cat. Andy also calls her Hells Bells.
Andy, of course, worked a ton, which left me to my own devices. I should have been doing homework, but I did this instead.
Clueless is one of my favorite movies ever. Please ignore the dusty table on the left.
We grilled out last night and enjoyed the beautiful weather.
Sirloin steak that broke in half for Mr. Andy and a turkey steak wrapped in bacon for me. Yum.
While hanging out in the backyard I realized we have an infestation. Of green onions. They are growing everywhere!
Please excuse our sorry excuse for a backyard. It's a work in progress. I will document it in the near future.
Then the always lovely Neck Tattoo and his harem of ladies decided to celebrate the end of spring break in their backyard. It was loud. Real loud. We had all windows open in the house so we didn't have the air conditioning on. It was either or. Windows open or air conditioning on. With all the noise, we had to put the air conditioning unit in upstairs so we could shut the windows. When we moved in last August, the unit that came with the house promptly crapped out on us the first day there. We have central air, but it doesn't work really well upstairs so we need a window unit to supplement. Andy's parents had an old unit that they weren't using, and thankfully let us have it. While she is not the most beautiful thing I have ever seen, I love her for her effectiveness and free-ness. One of these brand new would cost around $500-600.
Yep, that's tape holding the cover on.
So that's what we were up to this weekend. What did you do? Anything exciting? Have any neck tattooed neighbors ruin your open window fun?
