One more day to go before we hit Friday, and then it’s the weekend!!! The past week has been horrific. Because of earlier meetings almost every day, hubby and I have been forced to kiss our pillows goodbye so much more earlier in the mornings, make like zombies and drag ourselves to work. Yesterday we celebrated Hump Day (Wednesday la), because after that point in the work week, it’s wheeeeee………. all the way down to the weekend. Okay, we’re weird that way.
But anyway, I am so looking forward to the weekend. It beckons with so many promises and unknowns. Will the giddy tigress cook again? Will I have enough sleep? Where to go shopping? Where to eat? Will I be able to get myself a chup or two? Hehe….
On the blogging front, I have a few tags on my to-do list, so I might as well do one now. How can I NOT do a tag on the FATT number eight? Angeleyes was *patt* enough to tag me on this *fatt* meme, and in true EFNTD blogging fashion, I shall oblige.
