Tuesday!

Here's a tip. Do NOT wait till the nth moment to sort out your birthday gifts! I feel like toast and a scant few hours of sleep over the weekend is entirely responsible for this deplorable state of affairs. Bleary eyed page layouts and proofing at 4 am is not the stuff ooooh gifts are made out of! Yet, that's what I'm desperately hoping it'll turn out to be. I also think I've completely lost all my sense of syntax (not to mention my spelling!). Must be that deadly combination of no sleep, packing, glass noodles are not softly pliant, a regurgitated RFP from a client shooting ourselves in the foot, that Hoisin duck wrap, 8 pairs of chopsticks, Darjeeling tea and stress about getting the book before I leave and praying (in an aetheistic manner, naturally) that it actually looks good....

On the bright side (quite literally), the Saturday sunshine has gone from being a fleeting rumour to a well established pnpc fest! It's been flaunting itself ever since and the thermometer has valiantly crept (ugh! I actually wrote creeped!!!!) up to hit double digits for at least part of the day! YAY!!
