Yes, yes, a thousand times yes, cancel this week. I’m _so_ tired. Last week I had to cover for 2 people who were on vacation at once, this week I have to cover for another one, next week I have to cover for another one–until the 4th. After that, I’m going to be off myself, ha ha ha ha!!! So, yes, cancel next week up until the 4th, too, thank you very much.

So far, this week has surpassed almost all other weeks for crappiness. It has put the crap, so to speak, in crappiness. I’m sick, a friend is in trouble, work is blowing up in my absence, and I’m sick. Crap. Crappity crappity crap.

Cancel the rest of it, and I will be grateful to you for all of eternity.

Darn black cloud. Crap.

Ok this is kind of frightening. Is there some kind of weird planetary alignment going on or something I don’t know about?

Pfft, payday schmayday. I get paid twice a month, and the 31st isn’t till next week. But since this is my little fanatasy, we all get paid no matter what.

I am about to superglue a coworker’s nostrils together if he snorts, burps, or clears his throat once again.

Think **you’re** under a [black cloud](http://dailynews.yahoo.com/h/abc/20010615/ts/dustclouds010614_1.html)? This baby’s sittin’ smack on top of San Antonio.

And if we start now, maybe be can cancel the entire month of August. It’s just a total waste.

Breaking the Internet won’t stop me. I’ll just print out full-color copies and sell them on street corners.

After I digitally insert the goat.

You can’t! I’ve got a dopefest at my house this saturday, and I’m not sure I’ll be ready, even with Wed., Thur., and Friday. If you take away those days, I’ll be sunk!

The ASPCA certifies that no goats were harmed in the making of this obscene photograph. But they might have been embarrassed.

Sign me up for this week-canelling thing.

It’s only Tuesday and it’s already hell. I don’t see it getting any better. Not that the weekend will be a spring-rose, but at least I won’t have to deal with work and put on my “coping” face.

I’m with ya, **Mauvaise**. The only good thing about tomorrow being Wednesday is that it’s actually Thursday for me. I have Fridays and Saturdays off.

So the good thing about this week? It’s half over for me. I’m not gonna start celebrating just yet though. Grrr…
