They deserve it nonetheless.
...Okay, well, let's shoot everyone responsible for it still being a thing. Is that better, you pedants?
New MildSad: I am still sick. Also my phone seems to have died - but then it did something very similar once before, and came back to life hours later, so hopefully that's what this is. My internet is very slow, too, but on the upside with all these removed distractions I actually wrote an entry in my diary after neglecting it for so long (not a very long or comprehensive one, unfortunately, given the huge backlog of occurrences between now and the last time I properly updated it)
and have read a bit more of my current book.
Oh... speaking of Mild Sads and books, my copy of Svejk was ruined the other weekend when I somehow left it out in the backyard when I had to rush to get ready and go somewhere. Whooooops. The only reason this isn't worthy of a Big Sad post is that it wasn't an old copy, and I can easily replace it from a local bookstore chain for either $6 or $3, depending on whether one of their outlets is still having their closing-down sale or not.
Still upsetting, though. :-/ For ages I thought I must have left it at a friend's place, then I went out in the backyard and saw it, horrifically swollen from rainwater... who knows, if I'd realised what had happened earlier, I may have been able to grab it before the rain got underway and save it from being ruined. Oh well.
At least now I'm re-reading The Savage Detectives. I need to get a new copy of Svejk ASAP, though, before I forget what was going on where I was up to.
Technically I suppose I could still read my warped, misshapen water-damaged copy, but that would be a chore.
