Not quite so happy today, the cold has settled deeply into my sinuses, my nose is a bright cherry red, and staying awake is a constant struggle. I have also lost the ability to taste pretty much everything, which, on the plus side has made eating something I have to actively remind myself to do. Also managed to develop a nice little fever yesterday afternoon and had just enough energy left to drag myself home and collapse on the couch.
And then there was the Sharks game.
*sigh*
I was considering getting one of the Sharks Pack of tickets for next season mainly because I really enjoy seeing sports live. There's just an element of excitement and fun at an actual arena that you can't get just watching a game on t.v. And the Sharks have a warm, soft spot in my heart so being assured 10 games seemed like a great idea.
Now, though, I'm not so sure. The team I used to love, the one that came so close to greatness last year, is being dismantled piece by piece. Half the time I tune in for a game and barely recognize any of the players. "Wait, who is that? Is he a trade or called up from the Barons?"
Whatever. It seems clear that everyone from management down has given up on the team so I don't see a clear reason why I shouldn't. Of course the silver lining here is that there should be plenty of tickets available should I get the desire to see a game next season.
The weekend is looking peaceful for a change, the only real plan I've got is for the veil workshop on Sunday. We're going to go over some new moves and start thinking in terms of another choreography. Saturday I intend to do yardwork and perhaps some gardening as well. And if that doesn't completely wear me out I might start the housework necessary for my next houseguests in a few weeks. Then there's the possibility of working on a drawing or two, we shall see.
And that's pretty much it at this point, which sounds downright heavenly to me.
I'm really starting to get attached to the following website:

I highly recommend the article "The Politics of Depression".
Now I'm going to go blow my nose.
