The Day of Maziness
So yesterday at work I was talking to the receptionist about what her plans for the weekend were, and she told me that she was travelling with her new boyfriend last night for the weekend to his country place.
'What? You are missing a day of work' I said. To which she swiftly informed me that, no Mazzy, everyone has tomorrow off as it is the University Holiday at Concordia.
Well thanks for the information guys, I am not from around here :-)
But nevertheless, after getting over the initial shock, that I could have infact travelled to work on a day where no-one else would be present - I quickly got excited.
A whole day for ME ME ME, to do WHATEVER I WANT!
It was exactly what the doctor ordered.
So here is how the Day of Maz has happened thus far:
* Had a sleep in (till 9.30am... WHOA!), and a luxurious shower and getting ready
* Popped on the internet sent mails to friends, and chatted on msn whilst still waking up.
* Morning coffee in Starbucks whilst reading my amazing novel of the moment with the sun on my face and a large hot chocolate in my hands
* Going to the cinema to watch 'The Wedding Date' - a wonderful chick flick - not exactly oscar material but I loved every minute if it with my Subway purchase and yummy popcorn.
* Shopping and discovering the local op shop where I made some awesome purchases: crazy individual indian style top, new shoes exatly what I was looking for, and a cool black vest for GREAT GREAT prices.
Just got home and now I am about to cook some food, put some relaxing music on and continue reading my book...
Don't you just LOVE 'YOU' days!!

You should spend part of the day typing up that email you want to bounce off of me. :)
Babe I need you to purchase a ticket, come to montreal and if I go with my idea, be my start up mentor...
Loving this gentle reminder :-)
Was going to send it to you today but have now allocated it as a personal energy day, but will send it tomorrow...
and am looking forward to your critical appraisal of it.
hugs maz xx
Beb, I'd be there in a heartbeat; Montreal is one of my favorite cities ever... it's just a wee bit too cold right now; plus I'm out of leave and funds. Depending on how the post-June contract gets negotiated though a trip could be in the making.
My counter proposal is for us to discuss somewhere where you can get some REAL inspiration; like I'm thinking on an island beach, under the shade of palm trees, sipping freshly squeezed juices (which include other ingredients) and watching the sun dance on the waves of the sea as it sets. More conducive conditions for creativity, don't you think?
In the meantime thank godness for technology; download skype during your "MAZ" day and we'll have a follow up phone discussion. :)
Never under-estimate me times. :-)
Digs, do not even TALK or MENTION SUN and water.
Gosh.... how I miss the beach, and the summer weather, and I TOTALLY agree... but my most favourite insert inspiration spot?
The Botanical gardens sydney, look at the opera house, harbour bridge and the water....
SOOOOOO beautiful and have done done so much thinking there...
But give me any beach, or non lake like water, and sun and that will do the job :-)
Shelia sweetie... I couldnt agree more... Maz times are SACRED times !!!
