30 pages and still breathing

Whew! I just finished 30 pages of research today (an excruciating task that I had to do as part of my 5-year plan so I can't complain because I brought this upon myself) and I'm pooped. It's 1 am and after sitting in front of the computer the whole day, it's a miracle that I still have the energy to write. These past 2 days have been quite hectic for me but I feel good because I was able to finish my column early (it will come out on Monday and probably ruin some people's appetites -- oh, how I love to be obnoxious!) as well as the 30 pages I was talking about. I've been good, so tomorrow I think I shall reward myself with a lot of testosterone blasting action (hmm.. sounds kinky but it's not what you think it is, although that too would be fun). I'm watching HITMAN! Of course, my ever steady date will be my movie addict husband. Nothing like hard core action to make me forget that I still have tons of things to do.

For sure, it's gonna be one hell of a weekend for me and the whole famille. I have errands on Friday and Saturday, house-cleaning (of the very serious variety) until Sunday, and Zak's Family Day in Assumption also on that day. On top of these, my brother, his wife and two kids will be arriving after 10 years of absence (although I stayed with him last year in NJ so it's not really as bad as it sounds) in the P.I. (that's Philippine Islands!) For sure, I'm going to gain extra pounds while they're here. Groan! Groan!
