Have you ever had one of those weeks? I'm not just talking about "one of those days," but one of those WEEKS? It starts BAD; normally Mondays are bad, but when it's a short work week Tuesdays are twice as terrible; and it just goes downhill. Your Tuesday is completely unmentionable and it takes most of Wednesday to recover from Tuesday and then WHAM, Wednesday night you get hit upside the head with something COMPLETELY out of the blue. By Thursday, you're completely numb from the Wednesday night bashing, so you really don't remember all that much about it, which is good, because you resolve Thursday night that at least tomorrow is Friday and then it will all be over, right? WRONG. Friday is just as cruddy as the rest of the week and you find yourself counting the minutes--yes, minutes not hours--until you can crawl into bed and not have to face an alarm clock the next morning. OH WAIT! Now you've suddenly remembered that you can't just go home and become a vegetable in front of the tube and order takeout, because you have a prior commitment. AND, you DO have to face an alarm clock, because you have to be at the State Capitol by 9:30 to meet your family for the Fallen Officers Memorial Dedication. So what does that leave? Sunday? SUNDAY! That blessed day--no alarm clock, no early commitments, just sleep, glorious sleep! YAY! There is a light at the end of the tunnel! Oh wait, Sunday is the start of a new week.....ARRRRGGGG!
