Monday

MONDAY Woke up on the wrong side of the bed, There's a mind numbing pain at work in my head. Wash my hair and comb my face, Something died in my mouth, where's the toothpaste? Grab a quick bite of breakfast and rush out the door, Can't find my car keys, they fell on the floor. Finally find them and start the car, I'm gonna be late, well that's about par. Hit every stop light on the way to work, Look down and notice there's a stain on my shirt. Forgot to let Spike out, he's crossing his legs, Have to go back, this morning's the dreggs. The absolute bottom, the pitts, it's the worst! What else could happen, it seems that I'm cursed! Wait a minute, it's Monday, first day of the week, No wonder this day has begun so bleak. Come ahead Monday, get it over with now! I've got bon bons and chocolates and a little brown cow, To soothe and to comfort my poor shattered nerves, And to bind and to buffer the slings and the curves; Do your worst Monday, Come on, have a fit, You can't scare me, I have chocolate! Judy Ball (Afterall, chocolate is an emotional band aide)
