ahhh...
Friday, not that ANYTHING has happened at work this week, but I've been sat here like a trooper playing with my new mini disc that my mum and seestor purchased for me for xmas. They are far too good to me!
I now sit contemplating the January sales... so many temptations... how ever will I manage this lunch hour????
NYE was fun... contrary to my poll hosted in the right hand column of my blog for the past week... I didn't end up staying home having a hot bath and going to bed... Instead we wound up at Charlotte's house in Stratford playing with Kim and their friends till the wee hours of the morn. It was good fun indeed... however I think the evening's festivities have left me with a bit of a stuffy nose... *sniffle*
oh yea... happy 30th b'day Siobhan!!!!!!!!!!! So sorry I cant' make it to Lisboa tonight (I even checked the cheapie last minute flights) but alas, there is nothing in my budget range :(
Amazon are pants... my CD's never arrived, ho hum... how gracious of them to refund me... no apology no, here's free shipping on your next order... nope, just a nod, and a 'oh yea, here's your money back that we've sat on for the past month' *grumbles*
Todd, you're a star for surprising me with the book from my wish list! Thanks to everyone else for all pressies received... Mark the Japanese Amelie poster is simply stunnig!Lisa, your 2kg jar of peanut butter will last me from now till this time next year... I'm the happiest Canadian in London because of it!
In a burst of social energy, I'm trying to cull a group of peeps together this Sunday for a drinkie and a chill afternoon at the Pool* in Shoreditch at around 2pm... Psychos need not attend as we are mad enough as it is... but if you're reading this and can jet to London or are already here... please join...
*Pool where is it? It's on Curtain Road, Shoreditch, between Old Street and Great Eastern Street. Closest tube is Old Street, although Liverpool Street is pretty close too.

I'm baaaack!
I think so anyways. I'm half conscious and sitting at my desk in a semi comatose state. It's quite incredible what sleep depravation can do to your spactial perception. I've been awake now for like forever. I landed in London at half ten and took a cab from Paddington station to my flat. From there I had a cup of tea, a shower then jumped on the bus to head into work. It's all so dream-like... I wonder if I am really here at all?
I slept for about 2h on the plane... it was freaking cold. I was really happy to see that they only played one film and it was the 'bourne identity' lucky in that I had no interest at all in watching it thus wasn't tempted to try and stay awake and watch it.
The rain and the humidity were a joy to me and me alone today. I swear, I'd take it any day over the snow and freaking freezing temperatures in Toronto that I endured over the past few days!
Xmas was great. I had such a fun time with my mum and my sis. Got to see Noeleen, Karm, Mark, Andy, Lisa, Dave, Ashley... and all the family peeps too!
My little 8 year old cousin is such a sweetie. She's so smart. My Grandfather was telling me a story about when she was 5. He had asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up... she responded 'a scientist cause they're the smartest people in the world' my grandfather then asked 'didn't you want to be an artist?' she then quickly replied 'grandpa, I AM an artist!' She's sooo funny. She absorbs everything. She opened her box of animal encyclopaedias from my sister and immediately remarked how she had another set from the same series citing 'the writing is the same on the covers' Woa. Smart or what? Identifying typefaces and fonts at age 8? Man!
I'm feeling mostly woozy now and am not sure just how I'm going to make it home without passing out on the bus and ending up in some part of town I don't know.... think I may need an escort... Miss hazel???? will you come and rescue me?
