I don’t know why I dislike Mondays so much. It is not like I was beat up every Monday as a child, or that my boss calls me and tells me to go scrub the toilets every Monday… it is not a programmed aversion in the great circuit board of my brain or anything. But nonetheless, I spend most of the days on Monday wondering just what I should do first. So lunch comes around and I have done something between “not much” and “very little” in terms of real, actual work. Sitting at my desk collectively paralyzed by the small mountain of stuff that I need to address, not to sure which thing I should tackle first, if at all. So it waits, and it stares at me, like a very hungry dog with big ol’ eyes, licking its chops as I eat my PB&J.
“Sounds like somebody had the case of the moan-days.”
I do love PB&J though. Whomever decided to put jelly and peanut butter together for the first time deserves to sit at the left hand of God. The holy spirit can sit on his shoulder. I have eaten PB&J’s for the majority of my lunches since I was a tot, and I don’t see any reason to change.
Which is weird, because I don’t like Grilled Cheese or Chicken Soup or Mac&Cheese or those other childhood favorites that others have. In fact, I think they are disgusting. Just because I ate them often as a kid, and know I dislike them severely, but not my dear ol’ PB&J.
And work is still staring at me. Little bastard won’t let me eat in peace.
Sigh.

Heroes is the only thing that makes Monday’s worth while. Which means it would be until the end of April that I look forward to Mondays again.
PB&J does rule, its what I eat every day at lunch.
