You know, it's really quite a pity that Spring Break is only one week long. I think I could easily manage to live like this for an entire month.
I've finished Saki, and have decided that he probably should have stuck to short stories. The novels are pretty good, but one gets the impression that he had a rather difficult time dragging a plot out that long.
Ooh. That reminds me. Someday, when I have a house of my own, it will have a backyard with a hammock. This is an absolute necessity. It's rather difficult to spend luscious spring afternoons lounging outside in the hammock with a book if one has no hammock, after all.
My aunt asked me during lunch today if I mind spending so much time by myself. Not that I really do; I sleep all morning while everyone's off at the school, either teaching or being taught, and then I spend a nice relaxing afternoon reading and napping. By the time everyone comes home, I'm ready to be around people again, so it all works out quite well. I think I shall be ready to be back around my friends by the weekend, though.
We went for a walk yesterday evening, just before supper. It was gorgeous weather, and the flowers and landscaping around this part of Tyler are really quite nice. Then, to top it all off, it started raining just as we were getting back. Not raining very hard, but with lovely huge drops. And I'm starting to sound like a English heiress with far too much time on her hands, and not nearly enough to do. That'll be quite enough of that.
I suppose it will be good for me to get back to my studies, after all.
