Monday
I came in this morning and asked a co-worker how her weekend went.
Uneventful, she replied. Yours?
The same, I said.
Sometimes uneventful weekends are good, she said.
I agree, for the most part. They do make for boring lunch time conversation with co-workers though. And pretty empty blog posts.
I spent the main part of Saturday napping after getting family photos taken at 8:15 a.m. at the Mall. Two things I hate: getting up by alarm on a weekend and the mall. Throw in locking my keys in the car and freezing my butt of while waiting for the sheriff’s department to show up to let me in my vehicle? Well, let’s just say, not happy camper.
I did do a little holiday shopping though, so there was some positive. Plus, a four-hour nap, which I never do, and brief evening out for dinner compensated, some.
Sunday found me lounging around, watching bad holiday movies and going to dinner with my mom, sister, and nephew. I had a damn fine steak, pissed my mom off for being a jerk while talking current affairs, and then went to Kroger where I bought lunch stuff for the week. It all ended with me actually getting a little sappy watching a Hallmark Hall of Fame movie called “A Dog Named Christmas.” Yeah, laugh it up. Pretty pathetic.
Monday’s been a blast so far though. Thin layer of snow, thirty minute drive to work that typically takes 10 and two sliding incidents where I narrowly avoiding rear ending another car. I don’t necessarily hate Monday’s. Just this one in particular.
Perhaps my greatest accomplishment up until this point though is avoiding re-writing on the novel, which is actually sort of sad.
