Sometimes I wonder when I get back in the office on the Tuesday after a three-day weekend why I even bother to take the day off, especially on days like today when I spend 10 and a half hours in the office catching up on phone calls and scrambling to meet my deadline.
There's no less work when we have a three-day weekend, just fewer days to do the work in. No matter how much I prepare for it beforehand, I'm still behind when it's time to go back to the office.
I'm glad I got to spend yesterday morning playing at the Science Museum with my son, but I paid for it today by getting home two hours later than usual. I don't expect tomorrow to be much better either.
I also have a miserable cough and sore throat, but I can't afford to lose any time in the office to recover from this cold or whatever it is. It's a good thing I'll be sitting in my office writing all day, so I don't spread my germs around to my co-workers. Ugh.
