Monday Morning Greens

It's not exactly the blues, so I've assigned it a different colour.

Today is a big day, I told myself as I woke up this morning. You have to dress accordingly.

A spiffy white shirt
A black pencil skirt
Pearl Earrings; and
My Ferragamo shoes.

I put my best foot forward, only to discover that my heels are crumbling. With every step, the heels of my shoes disintegrate further and I walk through the office leaving a little black trail of shoe crumbs. The pantry lady will be mystified when she arrives this evening to do the vacuuming.

I've looked very carefully at the heel and it looks like it will make it through the client lunch scheduled in 1 hour's time. But by the time 4 pm rolls around for me to give a seminar, I will be down to just the nails sticking out of the heels. With any luck, these will embed themselves into the carpet at the seminar venue and I will literally be rooted to the spot.

Just checked my horoscope. It says today will be slightly fucked up. I think I know already.
