Surviving the Drought

Have we really made it to Labor Day weekend? It's been a long haul in Cube City. I'm always amazed at the company-paid holiday drought. If you can survive from Independence Day to Labor Day, and then from Labor Day to Thanksgiving, you're golden. Trying to survive from New Year's to Memorial Day is the absolute worst.

The thing is, most company-paid holidays are just one day out of a week, so I'm not sure why we look forward to them so much. I'm grateful for them, don't get me wrong, but I think we build them up to be more in our minds than they really are.

In any case, the drought is over. Happy Labor Day weekend.

It's kind of sad, isn't it? I've been waiting for this day for a couple of weeks now.
