Monday’s clinically questionable to-do list 1. Bite off more than I can chew. (Because self-awareness is for Tuesday.)2. Build Rome in one day. (Surely they just lacked proper project management.)3. Poke a bear with a stick. (My core competency. My brand, really.)4. Beat a dead horse. (Actually, this […]
What’s your #1 priority tomorrow? Ah, Sunday. The day I solemnly swear to “sleep in,” only to find myself wide awake at 6:42 a.m., staring at the ceiling like it owes me rent money. My brain, ever the overachiever, is already conducting a preemptive staff meeting about the […]
It’s Monday. Again.But this one feels… oddly quiet. Suspiciously still. The kind of quiet where you wonder if you missed a memo. A mass text. A cosmic “Out of Office” notification. This past week, I’ve noticed something. Or rather, I’ve not noticed something.People. Where are they? The commuter […]
Let me just say this real quick before my eyelids fully give up on this day and slide down my face like melted mascara: I am tired. Capital T. Italics. Possibly in another font entirely. I woke up today with a long to-do list and the resolve of […]

Ah, Monday—our old, uninvited friend. This one starts with a bang: my car refuses to work, the weather forecast promises a toasty 90 degrees, and a heat rash has made an unwelcome appearance. Classic Monday, right? Pop culture has a field day with the Monday blues, and it […]
Ah, Monday, we meet again. As if dragging ourselves out of bed after a weekend of Netflix and snacks wasn’t hard enough, it’s also a holiday week! I can already hear the collective groan of commuters reluctantly acknowledging the existence of another work week. But wait—there’s a silver […]
Ah, Sundays, the deceptive calm before the storm of a new week. They lure you in with their promise of relaxation, but beware, for Sundays harbor a sinister trap: the siren call of a new TV show. Case in point, my ill-fated decision to start watching “Fire Country” […]
Today, unlike some past Mondays, I will not mention the Monday blues. Today will be sunshine and rose petals. For, why not? If the day ends up crapping out, then so be it. I will have at least tried to be somewhat sunny. That’s where the word “hello” […]
Monday, Monday. Running around with coffee in hand, putting my bag together and applying makeup. Looking for the right jewelry to wear. Thinking of what I should bring or do for lunch. Not thrilled by my lunch choices. My earband sinuses still hurt. I take my antibiotic. Finish […]
