You get out of bed like any other day.
Shower, dress and have some brekky.
Despite the cloudy skies, birds are singing.
Your cars starts without a whimper. It sounds better today for some reason?
Traffic, although congested as usual, is a breeze, people smile and wave as they let you in to traffic, you smile and wave back at that girl who gestures apologetically after almost cutting you off.
You even wait happily for the pantech off to the left to revere agonisingly slowly back into your lane.
Still the birds sing as the sun just peeks through the clouds and a single beam shines down through you window to warm your knees.
Sliding into a park only 20 mtrs from the front door of your building your attention drawn to the myriad small groups of folk chatting, arms waving, smiling. Groups here and there break up with hand shakes, knowing smiles and the odd back slap or two.
You jauntily jog up the 3 flights of stairs to your office rather than take the lift and as you pass the resident Carlton supporters office you notice that his A3 photocopy of the Ladder has been taken down and there is another dart in his poster of Bryce Gibbs.
As you ease yourself into your chair you notice an email from personnel?
Your week off at the end of September has been approved, excusing you from the Annual Meeting to be held in Townsville which has been organised by the resident Carlton supporter.
I love Monday mornings when Carlton lose.
