It's been a while...you and me.

Well I had my "big" interview that I was all hyped up about. I bombed it as if I was using a sewing needle to play darts. Apart from being sick, I just wasn't thinking straight I guess. Oh well, at least I know what to expect next time. Mixed with my recent wave of nauseousness and my nervousness, I left the room rather embarrassed and ultimately depressed. Recent changes in my work place have left me wondering whether I will still have a job a year or two down the line. I'm still a little under the weather, and have been shamefully vegging at home for yet another week. I must admit, having 2 computers side by side does have its perks.

My DH and I definitely need a vacation to get away from EVERYTHING. We are looking very forward going to a resort within the next 3 months, and this minibreak in Niagara Falls/Toronto will carry us over until then. I haven't had a true vacation with him since I opted to spend our vacation money visiting Vancouver for the last three years. Although I went this year again, we are both feeling the necessity outweighing our savings.

As I'm getting older, I find myself stressing about a myriad of things that I have yet to accomplish.  

1.  Have 2 or 3 kids (...and be the best mom I can be )
2.  Explore a tomb in Egypt
3.  Try Bikram yoga (Yoga in a Sauna) 
4.  Eat Pad Thai from Thailand, Sushi from Japan, and many chinese foods in China (all in one gulp...I mean trip. )
5.  Learn and play an entire game of 18-hole golf (currently I hit about 10 out of 60 balls at the driving range, successfully..it's going to take a while)
6.  Learn to dance tango and/or swing with my DH
7.  Meet/Get a glimpse of Angelina Jolie in person
8.  Go to the Eiffel Tower (and eat a baguette with fresh foie gras)
9.  Paint something on a canvas (most likely something very abstract like NAG's Voice of Fire for $1.8M ) and hang it in my house
10.  Test drive an expensive car
