I have never looked more forward to having a few days off than this week! Despite only having worked 3 days thanks to the kindness of my boss, the moments where I was trying to cough my lungs out were not fun to have in the work environment, so I'm glad to have that kind of thing confined to the privacy of my own home again!

Originally I had been thinking of purchasing a "One Line A Day" journal while trying to find things to tip me over into free shipping from Amazon, but truthfully it would have been difficult for me to stay within those confines. I have a lot of things I don't really have anyone to bore the details with, and the fact is that I enjoy writing! It's fun to pick out the exact arrangement of words to convey a feeling or a story, and while it's no mean feat to do that within a restricted word count, I also don't see the need to limit myself. In any case, I think I'll try to do at least "one line a day" in honour of the journal that I never bought. While this doesn't have the same (admittedly neat!) advantage of being able to look at a single page and go "huh, that's what I was doing this exact day the past 5 years", I think it fits my purposes better.

However! I am still sick, and tired, and not feeling too introspective today, so I'll leave it at that!
