I’m sorry but there won’t be an issue this week. The good news is that it’s not because of another death or medical emergency in my family, and I won’t make any jokes about that for fear of tempting fate (and it’s in really bad taste).
But, the bad news is that I’ll be working crazy 15 hour shifts between now and Monday.
The good news is that’s some crazy overtime pay!
The bad news is it’s liable to friggin’ kill me!
Oh damn! There’s that joke in bad taste right there!
Shit!
Forget I said that last bit.
Cheers my friends!
Until we meet again!

or you could do the same as I, fighting my way through taxes, with much the same results
When you work for Uncle Sam, there ARE no days off. Makes no difference if you are military or civil8ian. Keep up the good fight and we’ll look for you next week.
