Pic of the day: "Into the desert" - Sims2.

Onset of Easter

This is the first time in my memory that I'm not rejoicing at the onset of the Easter holiday. Usually I go "Yay! Five days off from work!" and it is like a small vacation. (It's not like I actually have vacations, as I use my vacation days for sick days usually. And anyway I don't want to travel anywhere, so I have no use for vacations.) Usually I look forward to relaxing at home, sleeping in, playing games and writing on my fiction.

This time, the feeling is more like walking out in a desert and not knowing for sure whether I'll reach the other side. I know that my feelings are exaggerating. Unless something new strikes, I should be able to survive for weeks even without medical treatment. And if something unexpected strikes, well, it could have done so at any time. It is just another of life's illusions, I guess. Of course, the pessimist will always be right in the end; it is just a matter of time. ^_^*

The day wasn't really that bad. I got home from work early, was sick only 3-4 hours. Got a couple diary entries written, "so all in all it was a pretty good day."
