Take a deep breath

I used to see the week days as my relaxation time, with the weekends as being where work went crazy.
Whilst the workload hasn’t changed on the weekends, I come to the end of this one needing to take a deep breath to get ready for one more week of way too many hours.

I was catching up on email and blogging when I casually looked up in thought. There I see what I first thought was a shadow from one of the lights. I investigated further (i.e. climbed on a chair and ran my fingers over it) to find that it was actually a deep crease running through more than half of the ceiling length.
I really don’t remember seeing that before, and now I wonder if it is new.  Did an earthquake move the apartment?  Have the heavy rains moved it? It is a pretty new place. I wonder if it wil collapse one day.
There has been a lot of construction going on upstairs, so I wonder if that is the culprit?

Now that I see it, I can’t stop looking at it, and it bothers me.

I’m enjoying my budding t-shirt photography collection, and so far my students have been very kind in allowing me to take their photos.
Today’s is one I can relate to so well.  As my student explained, it’s quite old. Another student mentioned a t-shirt shop in District 1 I should go see.
