The Blues...no really...The Blues

If ONLY I could play the blues guitar or the harmonica or something.....



I've got the middle of the week, braindead blues....

from the top of my head down to my squeaky shoes.

My head is full of numbers and I'm hoping how they've been used

is they way the IRS is wantin' me to.

I've got all the tax forms out of my way.

I'm down to the finance and bullshit and pay,

And who cares about the accuracy of the inventory, anyway?

I've got the middle of the week braindead blues...

From the top of my head down to my squeaky shoes.

my head is full of numbers and I'm hoping how they've been used

is the way that GMAC is wanting me to.

My back and my legs are the source of all my pain

there's a wheelchair in my office just looking at me and sayin'

"just use me now and stop the stupid pride"

but I'd rather do the Conway than give up and ride.

One more day of work hell, then maybe I can breathe-

and get back to my blog friends and my life of a little more ease.

but we all know that's a joke, it's only a tease.

I've got the middle of the week braindead blues....

from the top of my head down to my squeaky shoes.

My head is full of numbers and I'm hopin how they've been used

is the way the IRS is wantin' me to.

Awww Jamie - this was delightful!! To find a way to add a bit of humor to a miserable situation - priceless! I know there's a glimmer of hope glowing inside you somewhere, or you could never do this. It made me start my day out with a silly smile too. I can almost hear the tune it goes with! Hang in there kid, this month is coming to an end - FINALLY!!!

damn you're good! i love the song itself, not that you have the blues. who cares if you can play a harmonica if you can sling out something like that:D i love to see your creative side, but i (and i'm pretty sure i could say WE) never mind when you vent either. we all need to and i am so glad that you share it all with us. i hope the rest of the week goes by fast for you:)

So now, if you convert those numbers into sheep you'll have the "Bedtime Blues", hee,hee,hee.

Yeah, that was really lame, huh?

At any rate, I hope your getting plenty of rest so these numbers don't stress you out and make you sick!
-P

now all you have to do is tell us what song you were humming along to, or rather tune while you wrote this fine diddle.. :)
Always,
