"Without Monday"

"How could he have considered taking Monday off? Monday was the diving board poised over the rest of the week. One walked out on the board, reviewed the situation, planned one's strategy, bounced a few times to get the feel of things, and then made a clean dive. Without Monday, one simply bombed into the water, belly first, and hoped for the best."

I just re-read that book last week! Are we all on the same page or what. Thanks for sharing.

That is so true. It reminds me how I used to feel if I had to miss the first day of term at school!

So much better than Garfield's, "I hate Monday's."
