Monday, Munday, Mudday

It's been a Monday so far. You probably think that is obvious, but what I'm saying is that it's been one of those Mondays. You know the ones. The Mondays that make you doubt the world's sanity, that make you want to curl up in bed and never come out from beneath the covers.

Unfortunately, I have bills. Plenty of them. So hiding isn't an option. Instead I grit my teeth and go to work just like you. We're good soldiers, you know. We do what has to be done, and we pay for it by the erosion of our spirits.

By this, you may gather that I no longer believe in the myth of "career." You know, the job that's going fulfill you and take you to exciting places where you will work with funny, wise, intelligent, beautiful people who naturally will end up being your romantic interest. That's how it works on TV. It's also a lie.

A job is a job is a job. Jobs give you money so that you can do things you like to do when you're not a work. Your mission is work as little as possible while receiving the salary necessary for you to pursue your pursuits.

Yes, it's a bit bleak here. Sorry. Tomorrow will be better, or heads will roll! Probably eyes, too. Don't think about it. Have a great day and a wonderful Tuesday. Talk to you then.
