The main shocker being that the weekend is up already &#8211; <i>what did you do with it, where did all go?<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Just a few more minutes sleep\u2026<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Maybe if you close your eyes and snooze for ten more minutes, it will stave the rest of the day off for what will hopefully seem like hours. And it often does, hours of half-conscious, groggy regret. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Why didn\u2019t I go to bed earlier?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Remember when you were little\u00a0and your parents made you go to bed early on a Sunday? Well, obviously there was a good reason for it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">That YouTube\/Netflix binge you had last night, squeezing every last drop out of your weekend, has come with a trade-off. Now you would have given anything for your mum to have marched\u00a0around at 8pm to shove you off upstairs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>I\u2019d pay anything not to get up<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Maybe there\u2019s some sort of option where you don\u2019t turn up for work and they simply subtract it from your pay? Oh yes, there is, and it\u2019s called unemployment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>I\u2019ve never had so much to do as I have right now<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Monday always bring with it a whole new list of things that need doing, typically carried over from the previous week. But you just know that today is definitely going to be busiest of all Mondays.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>This is going to be a long week<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If you live for the weekend then today is definitely not your day, and the rest of the week is only going to drag more and more, like sitting in a traffic jam on the way to Alton Towers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Tonight, pub<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">There\u2019s no question about it, as soon as the clock strikes half-past four, you\u2019re out that office and straight dow the pub. After all, you haven\u2019t had chance to unwind with your mates for a whole day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So it\u2019s another Monday, probably the least appealing day of the week.
