Before I got an office job Monday wasn’t so bad. It was usually a slow day at work, and didn’t mean much to me at that time. Fast forward 2 years, and Monday is officially Public Enemy #1. Today I asked myself, “Why is that?”
I think it’s because working Monday through Friday has conditioned me to enjoy what precious little free time I have on the weekends, and Monday is the ugly reminder that a whole week of work and toil lays before me, like some ominous raincloud, or some other fitting analogy.
I’m trying to reform myself, to not hate Mondays as much. But it’s hard, and today was no exception. All too often, I find myself looking at the clock (always a bad idea), hoping against hope that those two hands swing around to read, “5:00″. Alas, I’ve another 22 minutes before that self-fulfilling prophecy becomes truth. See you.
