The lost charm of April fool’s day…

Finally, April 2016 began. The word ‘finally’ used here has considerable significance since I was waiting April to arrive for last two weeks. Precisely, I was waiting since the day I made plans and schedules to work for future. April 1 was the first day to measure the progress. I began the day by going for a short morning walk. I didn’t wake up early as planned and that made me lose my first goal.

The day at the workplace was better. My boss and I are playing hide and seek that when I come to the office, he goes to another place or vice versa. So my boss wasn’t there at the office. The works went pretty slow. However, a slower pace was fine as it’s a relaxed month.

I enthusiastically started the session in the evening, only to be interrupted by a guest who left home only at 10 pm. Then, I resumed to reading book and closed my day.

An interesting thing I noticed was that nobody spoke anything about April Fool’s Day except few online posts. The only posts I remember said that ‘When your whole life is a joke, who wants an April Fool’s Day?’ Perhaps, true. I guess people are not anymore in a mood to celebrate such days. I remember my childhood days where we (friends and me) tried pranks to fool others, mostly to become the victim ourselves.

April 2 seems to be better than yesterday that I managed to wake up earlier and went for a longer 30 minutes’ walk. The day at the office is going well. Hopefully, the evening session too will be good. Despite tomorrow being a Sunday, I have decided to come to the office. I had taken three leaves last week, for which I’m planning to compensate.
