Last day of work. ... Thank god/goddess/mystical entity ... whatever ...

I feel like my eyeballs are falling back into my head. It doesn't help that it is a gorgeous day, so I'd rather be sunbathing. I've decided that I will not be dead white this year. I will get a tan and I will be careful so that I do not burn this year. ... Unually I burn badly, then, once the gross peeling is over, I have a nice tan that lasts through the summer.

I am going to do more reading this summer. Serious reading. Non-Fiction reading. Yes, I actually do like this dort of thing, when I am not forced into it. I've grown disallusioned with the fiction on the shelves lately. Most of it is formula writing and the rest is a carbon copy of Dan Brown. The only book that I am really looking forward to is the new Preston-Child "Dance of Death", but I will not read that in hardcover. These guys have the habit of making changes to their works between the hardback and the mass-market edition.

I am looking into some classics however. Especially The Woman in White by Wilkie Colins.

Okay, so I'm a glutton for punishment ... or a whore ... I'm not sure which.

I've just accepted an extension at the Hell Hole. They offerred me two weeks vacation and a raise.

I'm sure that I'll feel better when I have some rest time, and actually remember to take my iron pills.
