It’s been a good day. I spent it mostly reading a novel about a guy who was acquitted for murdering his friend, but everyone thought he was guilty, even though he wasn’t. Had a coffee with Bailey’s and watered the plants before I had to leave for my Mexico vacation. But then I got an email from the airline saying my flight was cancelled, so I’m waiting to hear about my new flight time. It’s been a good couple of weeks avoiding the television and newspapers. I can’t believe how addicted I was to the news all these years. I feel so free now, with more time to read and go for walks. My days are happier. I don’t have angst anymore from all the depressing stories in the media. And really, it’s not like the world has fallen apart, just because I’m avoiding the news.
