Things I like about not having work

TOMORROW is a non-work day. That's right. YUP. It IS only Thursday and Memorial Day was LAST weekend and I STILL don't have work tomorrow.

How could that be?

Well, tomorrow is the Jewish holiday of Shavuot (when G-d gave the Torah to the Israelites...I think) and because I work at a Jewish place I don't have work.

YES!!!!!

Three day work weeks should be the new five day work week. No one actually works 40 hours a week, do they? I mean, besides me. I obviously do that. UM...

Things I like about not having work:
1) Sweat pants. YES! In my heart of hearts I am a little chubby girl who wears nothing but sweat pants and oversized t-shirts. On days that I don't have work, I get to revisit this inner child and wear and let her out to play. Forget 'dress codes' and 'the hr department'. Sweatpants are THE thing for non-work days.

2) Sleeping In. My body doesn't want to be up at 7 am. EVER. It doesn't matter if I go to bed at 7 pm and sleep 12 hours until 7 am. My body will still be annoyed at me and probably achy. On non-work days I don't have to get up at 7. I can sleep in and instead of feeling slightly tired during the day, I usually feel well rested.

3) Doing whatever the hell I want. Oh you know, maybe I'm hanging out with your mom or maybe I'm watching TV. Maybe I'm shopping and stimulating the economy. Maybe I'm stimulating your mom? It's really hard to say...but I will tell you one thing: On non-work days I am doing whatever the hell I want (whatever the hell that is). hell hell hell...I know, I don't normally curse in here. Or should I say 'cuss'?


4) Drinking. EH, this isn't necessarily true all the time...but sometimes it is. You dig?

5) Not being at work. It is so annoying there sometimes. People talk to you when you don't want them to. People give you crap to do when you don't feel like doing anything. And then, when you DO feel like doing something there's no work to be found. What is THAT about? It's like they get inside your head and find out exactly what you don't want and then give it to you. And then the phone's ringing and people leave crap on my desk and I don't have a window so I can't see outside. It's basically a lot of whine and cheese...and I'm lactose intolerant so...
