I got off work early It was such a nice early Christmas present 45 minutes to myself Where I won't have to work like an elf I sang We Are Young by Fun three times in my car I drank two Mt. Dews cause 21.5 miles is far When you don't have your sleep You spend most of the day at work trying not to weep I played on the computer because I could I listened to a Republican speech by Clint Eastwood I listened to Will Ferrell getting yelled at by a little girl She wanted her rent Will hadn't put money away like nuts to a squirrel Money is nice But is has it's price You can spend your time making money Or spend your money making time In the end it isn't worth the dime Give me my day off so I can rest This place feels like a hornet's nest And I'm tired of getting stung

About this poem:
I am looking forward to November 23 and November 28-December 1 when I will get some good time to myself away from work. Today was nicer than others since I got to leave at 2:15 instead of 3 pm.
Hi, mcradloff, Give me my day off so I can rest... While having a job is a good thing and having a day (or two) off is great, having an unexpected 45 minutes to myself is a delightful gift to be enjoyed. Small things in life can make a big difference. Thanks for sharing.
