I've Got a Bad Gratitude (I Hate Mondays)

Monday Monday, can't trust that day,

Oh Monday Monday, how could you leave, and not take me?

Every other day, every other day,

Every other day of the week is fine, yeah

But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes


Does anyone like Mondays? Seriously? "It's Monday... YEAH, BABY! I've waited all weekend for this!" Does anyone actually say that?

I'm going to make the best of it. I am going to be grateful today, even if it kills me. My Monday Gratitude list:

  1. I have until Friday before I have to put on stage makeup again. This is a good thing, because I am seriously allergic to Max Factor's wonderful contribution to theater arts. You may not have heard, but I have the most sensitive skin in the known universe. (Thanks, Elaine, for the pic, which I shamelessly stole from!)
  2. BELLY DANCE! Mondays are belly dance days, and I missed last week's class because of tech rehearsal. I can't wait to go to class tonight, shimmy and undulate!
  3. Coffee! I can drink coffee again for a few days! I've been off the java juice all weekend because of my show... caffeine is not so good for the voice.

What are YOU grateful for today?


  1. I am grateful that it is a monday without the teenager in our house anymore. I am grateful that my husband has his first real bartending interview today, on a monday. and I am always grateful that there is usually one thing I always enjoy on a monday, racquetball...

  2. I'm grateful that Mondays are predictably bad. When a Tuesday or a Wednesday spoil then you not only have to deal with the badness of that 24 hour period, but with the shock of unexpected spoilage as well.

  3. uuuuh . . . it's a gorgeous day outside AND it's day 1 on the flat belly mediterranean diet. A girl can dream!
