Wednesday

So, day two kind of got forgotten... I had every intention, and was even thinking of doing it as i prepared a delicious feast (pumpkin pesto lasagne, my new addiction - phooarrrr, it's delish!) but time got away from me.

Wednesday is my weekly day off, and when I hang with my mummy, but she's sick, I'm sick, blah blah blah. Instead, I woke up with the overwhelming desire to create a paper mâché longhorn Bulls head. Yeah, I don't know. 

It's currently drying from its first coat of goop, which is flour/water/salt and making me crave pancakes and Yorkshire pudding, for some reason...

I am pretty impressed with my horn making ability. Pretty gosh darn impressed. Like, I thought they'd be the hard part, but I'm quietly confident I've actually aced them first go. Evidence of my natural horn making talent: 

(Also evidence of my mess. Ignore that).

I kind of want to stand over it with a hair dryer to encourage it to cook, but I'm a tad worried there'll be an awkward 000 requesting a fire truck if I do that. Patience has never been one of my finer points, and having to wait hours (days? Gasp!) is doing my head in. 

In other news, I've just discovered ridiculously cheap airfares to Honolulu; meaning we can island hop to Maui and spend time at our family holiday house... Read: cheap holiday. Read also: must be social with family. I'm in more of a 'lets lay on the beach, being massaged practically non stop whilst downing happy hour cocktails and reading soft porn for women books' mode than a 'can't sleep until midday as it appears rude and have to make small talk over dinner, and can't eat breakfast like a piglet in case I drop crumbs on the $400,000 tiles' kind of holiday mood. But still... Driving around in golf carts and raping Sephora on a daily basis doesn't sound too unappealing. Hmm. I can see today getting lost playing on trip advisor and poking paper mâché continually to see if it's dry enough for another layer. Ahhhhh, Wednesday, how I love thee.
