Manic Musings... 6 days left!

Amazing how a little Starbucks and an hour of reflexology can make almost everything okay again.

6 days... I can now play "This time next week, I'll be home!" It was the first thing I thought of when I woke up this morning! Yippee!

Got all my Christmas shopping done except for one small thing I have to buy in Canada! YAY!!!

Got myself almost liking this place again then started re-reading an email from the travel agent and it looks like she didn't book MK and I beside each other from HK to TO... grrr! This woman is seriously giving me grief! Ah well.. it'll sort itself out... I just want to make sure I'm sitting with MK and not some snorting, hoarking, noodle slurping old guy... that guy exists.... ask JC or even my mother and I've sat beside him or close to him plenty of times before... OK gonna try for happy thoughts again!

Went for sushi last night... it was exceptionally good or else I was exceptionally hungry... either/or. Then went to see that World Trade Center movie... too bad about the whole Nicolas Cage factor.. I don't know how that guy is so famous.. he's wrecked more movies than I could shake a stick at... (where did that expression come from?) Ok being negative again.. sheesh! The internal optimist seems a bit broken...

Ok let's try again... so yes 5 days of work left and this week should be good.. hopefully will go quickly and I think I'm on top enough of my work that I won't have to do any over the holidays unless I want to... well other than reading Dante's Inferno and trying to figure out how to make it interesting... but even then.. I don't really have to...

I have 2 books ready for the plane... one is Blink that MK gave me... seems like a very good "smart people" book... and the other is Perfume by Patrick Suskind.. Heard about it at my Singapore Workshop. But most likely I'll just watch movies...

I'm off to a Christmas concert tonight. MK has kids singing in it and I have them playing in the orchestra... we are such good supportive teachers! Yay us! Maybe I'll even get in the Christmas spirit.. then I'll be happy and bouncing off the walls with holiday cheer!

One Christmas concert....5 days of school.. a little packing.. a ginormous plane ride.. and I'll be there!
