I hearby make a solemn pledge that I will remain in a horizontal position, staring at the fire, the sand and the books until 5:30 pm.
I have no idea how I became the person who needs to make herself sick to get some rest but that shit stops now, even if I have to turn on the Dr. Phil marathon to drown out the voices telling me I need to be preparing next year’s syllabi this very moment. Dr. Phil has one great quality: he’s loud.

Read! I am sick too. Lets prepare our syllabi in a couple of days.
Look who won the Cervantes this year.

Oh wow! ! Good news! Not your being sick, of course, but the Cervantes. I had no idea!
This is great news. I will totally celebrate.

Not very sick. Just the classic end-of-the-semester “now I can rest a little, and then I get sick.”
I do not like literary awards, and in Spain it is even more ridiculous than in other countries. But Goytisolo deserves it.

I also hate literary awards. But only until Goytisolo or Marse get them. 🙂

Love the photo. A cosy fire, books to read and bagels to toast, what more do you need to get better, just relax. Hope you’re better soon. x
