Virtual stress relief

I'll write a longer post later this week. Right now I'm just feeling drained and somewhat nonexistent. I spent about 9 out of the last 24 hours writing a paper for AP US History (on Kesey and Kerouac and how they were the emblems of their eras), 8 hours at school trying to get from class to class and just survive, and about an hour and a half on transportation and laughing. Not to mention 20 minutes of daydreaming, and an hour of Law and Order, SVU. Now my brain is clamoring for a long, restful night, and it looks like a promise to myself I might be able to keep.

A day-brightening picture:

It's the beach at Selinunte in Sicily, last February. Endless and overgrown and beautiful, it might almost be undiscovered were it not for a dozen ancient temples, covered in weeds and flowers and now completely one with the surrounding Sicilian oceanside.
