Tomorrow I’ll go skiing for a couple of days. Will stay with one of my oldest friends in the Wallis and am really looking forward to it. I do have to write an article about New Zealand until Monday, though, so I’ll take my laptop with me. So you can still get in touch with me. I’ll check for comments, but won’t be online other than that.

Some of my friends have suggested that I’m experiencing burnout more than my SAD at the moment, which feels weird, because, after all, part of my problem this winter has been that I didn’t do anything. But who knows, maybe they’re right. It’ll be good to get away from it all for a bit, to stop giving myself grief about not getting anything done.

I did get something done today, btw – I made a prettier layout for Bookish, using a gorgeous book graphic a friend made for me. I’m glad I managed to do that – now I can leave with a semi-good conscience. 🙂

I just went to see Deep Blue with my mom. Regina and her mom, as well as her brother with girlfriend, came with us. A really great movie – those images of sealife were absolutely stunning and accompanied by beautiful music.

Now I want an underwater layout – something beautiful, with fish and corals, all in blue… Someone stop me, as I just got my lovely chocolates and love them still! 🙂

Less amusing is the amount of spam comments I’ve gotten lately – at least one or two every day. But I don’t want to turn off the comment feature, I really don’t… Any suggestions?

I’m a bit sick today, which doesn’t go very well with having to work. But so’s life, right? Haven’t done much all week, despite the break and the many things waiting to be done – just didn’t have the energy. Don’t know if it’s SAD or the flu or whatever, and it doesn’t really matter, does it? These six weeks will be over much too quick in any case.

But I haven’t just been sitting around – I’ve reorganized my site collective and I’ve gone to the movies a couple of times. Too many good films in the theatre right now – three more I have already agreed on going to see with people, and there are some more I’d be interested in. I wish we had 1$ cinemas like they do in the US! 🙂

Now I need to get ready for work. Hope it won’t be too unbearable – will take more meds with me, just in case, because there’s no going home early in that job, as I’m all by myself at the reception.

Wishing everyone a good weekend!

I’m a bit sick at the moment, so I’m at home. But instead of using the opportunity to get caught up on stuff (like uploading the pics I took in the last days), I’m just lazing about. Well, I guess we’re all entitled to that when we’re sick.

Just glad that it’s nothing bad – feeling better already, as a matter of fact. And since I’ve started light-therapy I haven’t really been sick, which is a big difference from the last winters. Makes for a nice change and the occasional not-so-great day much better to bear. 🙂

I didn’t have class today, because of an information day for interested highschool students, so my brother and I went on a major movie buying spree. My brother is the movie nerd in our family, but I love movies too (who doesn’t?), although I’m only interested in the original English versions. Which means that I mostly have to buy my movies instead of being able to just tape them from TV.

So today I ended up with five DVDs, plus the X-Men collector’s edition (X1 and X2 combined), which Michi and I bought together. Have not spent so much money on stuff in ages – but it was fun! And now I’m curled up in my bed, my laptop beside me, watching some of my new films. Lovely!
