So, I wake up today and drive the 17 miles into work. I'm instantly in a bad mood, being that it's Monday and all, and the work cloud that was erased by the weekend is already starting to re-assert itself. I'm going trough the work routine, waiting for the co-workers to start coming in. The woman I work with who's due back from vacation doesn't show on time, so I figure she's dragging too. Then, when she's about 2 hours late and no one else has shown up yet, a little pilot light in my brain struggles back to life. "Wait a frigging minute...."

I open up the 2006 Holidays folder on my desktop, and Monday, January 2nd, Day After New Years, is the first entry. [lol]


It's official, I've turned into my father, please shoot me. Of course, now I'm back home in a pretty good mood again....

I never overlook a holiday, but more than once when I was teaching or working in administration I've driven to my office on campus, only to discover that I missed the "campus closing" announcement. Maybe I would have been expecting it if I hadn't done my undergrad work in the midwest. Brutal New Englander winters my ass! [wink]

I've done that one before. It's great when you realize it that you have a free day off, it sucks thinking about getting up that morning. [wink]

I've forgotten that I was still on vacation and showed up for work
