And with a MASSIVE week coming up I feel a little cheated by not really having much of a weekend at all, having to work in the office most of Sunday (even though I gave myself Saturday off, knowing I had to work yesterday to clear a lot of stuff off my desk meant I was thinking about work almost all ( Read more... )
