my son is sick today and he's wearing his Sportacus pajamas. he loves sportacus but the only bad thing about it is that he dosen't stay still while watching it. he's jumping around and running and today he has a sore throat and a cold and really should be lying on the sofa or even sleeping. but no not my kid, he jumps in front of the tv and then he coughs like crazy, he has asthma so I'm trying to calm him down... can't say I'm upset about missing work, getting very tired of this job.

Oh how I love the fruits of vacation! What a beautiful time it is! After months endlessly working and emmersing myself in seemingly unrewarding tasks, I at last taste sweet sweet freedom for five days (though I don't want to think about how many days are left from today ).
