You Wake up... Alarm clock yelling at you in an unfriendly manner. Just by the smell of the air you know something isn't right. You roll around your bed 2, 3, or 4 times before you muster up enough energy to raise your head and open your eyes. The alarm clock reads a time that is way too early for your body to be happy with. It only takes seconds for you to come to terms with the fact that it is Monday. Probably the most dreaded day of the week. You just came off of a nice-weather weekend. Maybe you played video games all day since you got home Friday, or you got outside and had the chance to run and scream; this is the day where it all stops. Monday...A day we'd love to have omitted from the Calendar; a day where the first 5 people that talk to you are likely to be frowned at or punched in the face (I wouldn't recommend either of these actions); a day where it takes literally 24 hours to wake up completely. Monday. If you have an office job, you arrive to work only to be made more upset at the taste of #OfficeCoffee. (We realize Twitter is a new way of life, so we try to identify by adding the hash). Yea, that's right. #OfficeCoffee that has enough undesired flavor packed into that 8 oz white Styrofoam cup, that there is nothing that could remind you more of where you now are. If you aren't employed , but are needing to be, Monday is a day full of job hunting. (This is where all of you with jobs appreciate the fact that at least you don't have to get up and do work for no pay). Even if you are on Vacation in Aruba, playing in shark infested water, drinking overpriced juice drinks and tossing a Frisbee, Monday will never feel free. Its Monday. Unless I won the lottery today, this will remain to me...the ugliest, stinkiest, slowest, low energy, stifling, boring, uneventful, unexciting.....well you get the point. Now...We could choose to continue to complain, but we realize that no matter what day it is, here at the Elite Gaming headquarters, we get our game on. So as I sit here and shell out my disgruntled words in regards to the first day of the work week, I can at least look forward to heading home at 5 on the dot, stripping down to my polka dot boxers and tube socks, grabbing an Capri Sun and some Oreos, and lighting up that green circle on my console. Today...Mass Effect 2 will be in full effect. What will YOU do today to offset your discontent for getting back to responsibility? I encourage you to go home and relax. Draw some pictures, or search YouTube for that smoking baby ( however irresponsible the video is). Write your significant other some kind words, or stuff a banana in the tail pipe of the neighbor who always parks in your spot. The point is-- GO! Have fun today! It IS Monday, but the hard part is usually waking up, so unless you read in your sleep, its downhill from here. So I bid thee a good rest of YOUR Monday. Filled with #OfficeCoffee and black and white printouts; meetings and conference calls. Days like Monday's allow us to be happy every other day because it is in fact, NOT MONDAY!!
This has been a PSA from some random dude at the HQ.
