Friday on a Sunday...

Everybody's working for the weekend... 100 bonus points if you can name that band.*

Our work week on these "fun summer jobs" has been Wednesday through Sunday, with Monday and Tuesday as our "weekends."  For the past couple months, Sunday was our Friday (end of the work week).

Not this week.  Joan has to go in this morning to open the office.  I have a trip this afternoon.  This is the busiest part of the season (for the next 4 weeks).  We knew what the job was when we accepted it.

Well, unless Mother Nature decides to mess with us.  It was perfectly clear this morning when we got up (at 5:30).  If fog rolls in, that will mean no seaplane flights can get in... and I think all the guests on my boat are supposed to be flying in.  The sky is blue straight above and grey above the trees to the south... the temperature differential between land and water could easily make for fog.  That could mean extra work for Joan (re-scheduling flights/trips) and no work for me (if the guests can't get to us).

I guess this is Monday on a Monday.


-----------------

*  Loverboy, 1981, from the album "Get Lucky".  If you got that right, you earned 100 bonus points.  Bonus points are not redeemable and have no value.  BUT, you do get to accumulate them, strictly for the bragging rights.  This offer is void where prohibited by law.  You must be 18 or older to participate.  One winner per household.  Listening to hairband music in 1981 was OK... if that is still at the top of your playlist, you may need to "get a haircut and get a real job".*

* George Thorogood and the Destroyers  - 100 additional bonus points if you got that right.
