the week that wasn't

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2018.11.19

November in Toronto, when you can say, "Thank god we carried the sofa down all those stairs before it started snowing".... On Sunday I spent the day studying for an exam I wrote Monday. Then the rest of the week was a blur of very long days, with Thursday sofa-before-the-snow day. Only to be capped with a half-day in bed with a migraine on Friday, then nearly a normal work day again. Then Saturday was corporate tax day (one of n).

Hard to remember that I had the summer off, to be honest.

rand()m quote

It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.
