wooo hooooot wednesday

i love wednesdays. it's a day so full of promise; half way through the week, with the promise of a fabulous weekend just around the corner!
  • treated myself to one of these the other day. well, not this EXACT one. i had white chocolate mud cake, but it was as tasty as this one
  • have a job interview on friday (postponed from today - the dude's sick!). i have decided to take on some temp work in an attempt to get a foot in the door and some 21st century paid work experience under my belt!
  • scrapped this. i can fish, and it's a great workout for the arm muscles when you get dragged around the boat by a giant stingray!
  • went to a late-night quiz at the paramount last thursday - on my own! ended up in a team made up of others who had come on their own. i thought i was a bit of a movie buff, but i bowed in the shadow of their movie buffness! we came 5th out of 20 teams and i plan to go again this week!
  • my first born turns 19 on monday! we are having a family dinner on sunday night at masala, one of her favourite restaurants.
  • you may have noticed my fabulous blog makeover! i won it at the recent bloggy giveaway from sheila! please go say hi to her when you get the chance. thanks sheila!
  • this is my 160th post! (i really should get out more lol)
  • scrapped this too
  • still loving the olympics, and SO PROUD of our athletes!
  • and speaking of the olympics, i'm participating in the sketchbook olympics. here's my warm-up challenge - a layout about me representing the flag of togo. i just couldn't go past the togolese white water kayaker who won his country's first ever olympic medal.
happy wednesday!
