Wayra Monday

My weekend begins.
I’m drunken with excitement
till the morning I waken
to the headache called work.
Monday, you are such a buzz kill.

I love to think I remember what this feels like. We have been "kind of out of school but not really for ten weeks". Today is officially our last day of school until we-do-not-know-how-long.

Wonderful verse, Andrea and so true! Although, part of me misses going to work on Mondays (surprisingly). At home, everyday is basically the same. Sometimes I forget what day it is...best of luck in the contest. xx Rhonda

Rainy days and Mondays . Can we just get rid of them? Just kidding sometimes I like rainy days. Monday is a different story. Good luck in the contest...

Ironically, I was born on a Monday; however, it was LABOR DAY at that time, so me and Mom had the day off, and I've loved days off ever since!
