At home relaxing

hey, how about that, almost the end of April already. Last Tuesday was Administrative Professionals Day (what we used to refer to as Secretary's Day). On this day the company takes us out for lunch and gives us a little something to thank us for the millions of dollars we make for them on a daily basis. This year they took us to the Omin Hotel. We had a three course meal, salad, main entree and dessert. The salad was good, and the entree was steak and chicken stuffed w/spinach and cheese and dessert was cake. It was pretty good, at least we got a two hour lunch and that made the day go by quick. I know it's not a really good picture we we snapped a quick one before leaving. That's Monica, sylvia and me. the three musketeers.

This last 10 days was FIESTA time here in San Antonio. Basically, it's just an excuse to get drink and party masked in the guise of celebrating the history of san antonio. At Joel's work they gave out a pair of tickets to NIOSA to each employee and we decided to make the most of it and go check it out. Hey, it was free, so why the hell not.
We boarded the VIA park and ride over at the Crossroads mall for $5 round trip each and avoided all the hassle of parking. We got there at about 7am and only lasted for about an hour. By the time we left we couldn't even walk because of the crowds. It's basically like the texas folklife festival where the have different food and beverage booths along with bands or dancing from different cultures. the only one we saw was the polish square dancers. they were okay, i guess. got fed up with being all crowded and stuff so we just left w/out buying anything to eat or drink. We did go across the street to the Hemisphair Park cuz they had live music. Bought a glass of watermelon water and strolled around the place for a little bit, relaxed, it was a pleasant night, not too hot or cold.
Hopefully this will be a short week for me because mom and dad might come over on Thursday and Friday cuz dad has a week off. Asked for those days at work but i still haven't heard anything yet but i'm pretty sure it'll get it.
