Take a Look At Me Now

Heard through the office grapevine the boss will now resign. Have to beat the deadline or that position won't be mine. I need to work and sacrifice no sleep tonight, a wink's just nice. Your Red Bull in my coffee I drank, now look at me! Thank you Lyric Man and FJ Thomas for the inspiration. Reminds me of those days of endless coffee and antacids. :-) Acknowledgment to flckr for the image of a Philippine tarsier Kim Patrice Nunez 26 June 2015
