super sunday

So Thirtsy Thursday at work wasn't too eventful for us because we had to get a lot together for the Crystal Light client meeting the next morning. We just grabbed a couple of beers and went back to work. I finished up putting together the first part of the downloadable Shreddies swag stuff I was working on and sent that off to Ivan for approval. I also worked on some more Winners designs and helped with the story boards some. They were pretty nervous about them because they were pretty crazy and included mermaids and unicorns which actually turned out to be the client's favorite part. Go figure. So the meeting went really well.

The rest of Friday was pretty laid back for a change and I didn't get assigned any work for the weekend! I spent most of Fri. trying to shrink down the Shreddies pdfs that I made so that they could go online. I really don't know why the interactive part of the agency was making me attempt to do that when they would know better than anyone else how to make things the best quality at the smallest file size. My files were 3MB and they were demanding that they be under 1MB which just wasn't happening so finally the account person persauded someone in interactive to deal with it.

I left work probably the earliest ever a little ater 5. Cara took me to the Distillery district to walk around. It kinda reminded me of Delaware with all the red brick. Toronto isn't a very old city so this area was old by their standards. After that we did some shopping and then headed to Globe for our Winterlicious dinner. The city has two events each year set up called Winterlicious and Summerlicious where the higher end restaurants offer preset 3 course meals for $35. Kinda like Restaurant Week in NYC. I had vegetable lasagna very interesting and delicious! Our meals ended up being welllll over $35 with all the booze that we ordered but well worth it for a treat. Yesterday was pretty uneventful except my cousin came over for our belated birthday (his is the day after mine) Indian feast. yum.
