Pic of the day: Stereotypical magical girl cosplayed by a friendly alien in the anime DearS. My day is slightly more mundane.

Fast forward

The more than a week of frost (but with very little snow) seems to be over for this time. Perhaps winter will come again in December, as is good and proper.

I went to the physiotherapy at the appointed time. After waiting for 25 minutes I decided to go. As I was in the hall, something convinced me to return, where miraculously the therapist had materialized. I gave him the night off (I was supposed to be the last patient) and we set up a new appointment on Monday.

I have recently read, for the first time in my life and from two different sources (but of course both inspired by the same original quote), that if we define a miracle as something that has a one in a million chance of happening, then we should on average experience one a month. That is, provided we observe approximately one thing each second of our waking life. I suspect some of us observe more than others, though.
