Today is the first day back to work, and the feeling after returning to work is truly depressing. Everything I do feels lackluster. The only comforting thing is that I have a group of colleagues who, like me, are suffering from post-holiday syndrome. Moreover, even my boss is lounging around with us. If I consider my boss's usual work style, he would have already assigned a bunch of tasks for us to do in a hurry. I don't know what's come over him today; he's just like us, wanting to slack off until it's time to go home.
While everyone is taking it easy, I took the opportunity to play some online slots. It's not easy to play other games during work hours, so I went for simple games like slots. In the end, luck wasn't on my side, and I lost over 13U. However, there was a little incident during this. The colleague sitting next to me saw that I was playing slots and came over to tell me that he used to be a fan of slots too, but he stopped playing after getting married. I asked if his wife told him not to play, and he said no. When he was still single, his wife knew he played slots, and it wasn't a problem as long as he didn't go overboard. But after they had a child, they needed to spend money on the child, so he decided to stop playing voluntarily.
I thought about it, and marriage seems somewhat distant for me, but not that distant. It's just that I find it really hard to imagine the day I have children, and it's even harder to imagine giving up my long-time love for slots for the sake of children. Maybe it's because this is how I feel right now, so marriage still feels quite distant for me. |
