I bet I’m not the only one who really needs this long weekend. I’m exhausted — I’ve been yawning since 8 pm.

Today I was waiting for two remaining file deliveries, from Spain and Sweden. I was supposed to have them in the morning — I didn’t. Around 2 pm I started asking if I was getting them soon. Spanish file arrived almost right away, but I had to nervously wait for the Swedish file till almost 4 pm. Luckily, it arrived too and I was able to send all the files forward like I had promised to send them this week.

Yesterday I was told there’s an update coming today to one of my projects. I waited: 1 pm, no update yet, 2… 3… 4… pm, no update. I thought, “oh no.” Soon after 4 pm I get an email. I grimace and take a peek inside. “The update is almost ready for you but I’ll send it after Christmas.” What a wonderful Christmas present! I was able to leave work on time.

I won’t be doing anything special at Christmas (hurray!). I’ll get to sleep later than 6.30 at last; maybe I’ll get to read a little (I’m reading “The Ninth Gate”), watch some movies (I’ve bought many DVDs that I haven’t had a chance to watch — especially because the DVD player hooked to my TV is kaput), play a little (maybe a new game even!).

I have no idea what I’m getting for Christmas — I can’t wait!
