Thank God its FRIDAY

THANK GOD ITS FRIDAY!!!

I went into my computer, and sought out a "party" picture... I liked the colours in this one, and when I put it on the blog, I noticed the enormous pipe, oozing a smokey haze!!! Hmmm... psychodelic colours and a smoking pipe... Don't worry all - this eternal wait has not driven me to the pipe.. yet...


After a hard week's work (yes, I am on full-time duties for 2 weeks ~ TWO WEEKS!!!) I reckon I'll be crawling into bed by 830pm!!! Besides Tuesday (which was Sports Day) I've worked a full week!!! (Gosh, I sound like a friggin parrot!) Its just a bit of a shock to the system. I do work most days... but at my leisure ~ none of this clock on, can't leave coz the phone might ring-crap!!! I tell ya, our Secretary is worth her weight in gold! And I'm thinking that I'll never approve any more holidays for her!!!


Well, that's my (none-existent) week. Boring-snoring work.


Oh yeah - I finished "Peony In Love" by Lisa See. Took me a while to get into it ~ it's certainly not your "normal" love story!!! But Lisa is an awesome writer, and deserves all the awards she's won! If you're into a book that's not the "norm" and a bit "out there" - I recommend it, if you like historical novels.

It's funny that you say that about "peony in love". I have started it but just can't get into it. You've inspired me to keep reading....I absolutely LOVED "Snow Flower and the Secret Fan".

TGIF BABY!!!!!

PS - I started reading Peony In Love and it was soooo sloooow. Just as it started getting good, I made the mistake of going on Amazon and reading reviews of the book, to see if anyone else thought it started slow. Well, one of the reviewers gave the ENTIRE PLOT AWAY in his review, ruining the book for me. I haven't picked the damn book up since and I don't plan to. Phooey.

Oh I read that... yeah it was a bit to get into it but once I found myself in it then I couldn't put it down... I had Lisa See autograph 'Snow Flower' to Shauna... I was so excited when I got that back... she was in Colorado when I was there but always in a different town... it would have been great to meet her.
