Commemorating bad feelings experienced on this day, I declare it to be an International Day of Sadness.
My motivation is that one day a year, I should gather up all my sadness and regret and just get over it. Today is that day, a day for wallowing and self-pity. Tomorrow will be a new day. This date nicely coincides with the beginning of a new academic year almost everywhere (a little late for A., just about right for me, a little early for E.).
I had decided on this strange holiday a few months ago; I knew I'd probably feel bad today, and resolved at least to feel better tomorrow. Ever self-thwarting, my subconscious arranged it so that I awoke this morning feeling great. I am fairly certain that my stepped-up workout schedule is to blame for that; I am sore all over, and energetic, and sleeping well.
This post's theme word: roborant, "strengthening."

A statistician would agree that school starts today for all the Fontes children. And you can't argue with statisticians because they are mean!
Ouch.
