If I Get My Way

The sun's away
  The skies are gray
If I get my way
  I'll sleep all day

Don't want to play
  This drab weekday
My instincts say
  In bed I stay

In a sing-songy voice, you have convinced me to go back to bed. Too bad I am at work!

Agreed: Time to hit the sunbelt... Only I'd have to leave my wife behind. Ergo, fuggetaboutit! Oh, well... Maybe in another life! Thanks, Sharon. Happy weekend, Gershon

Similar weather here as well, aside from the gloomy pandemic environment. Sleeping doesn't make it go away; I've tried that :)

You must not live in the Chicago area, Linda. Here the weather changes every few hours. So, you can literally sleep off the bad weather! What a place! #1 in Murder... #1 in Corruption... #1 in 'Bi-polar Weather'... :) gw
