Tuesday Blues

My phone rang the fifth time. I answered it this time.
"Where the hell are you?", yelled my boss on the other side.
"At home", I said calmly.
"And why are you not in office?", he was at the verge of explosion.
"I'm boycotting Mondays", I said as assertively as possible.
"That's ridiculous", he snapped, "You can't do that".
"But I can and I am doing it!", I said half mockingly.
He disconnected the phone without further argument. The news spread in the office. People first joked, then thought and then agreed. The idea spread. People stayed home. In our small way, we succeeded in boycotting Mondays.
Now I feel bad for Monday. Today is Tuesday morning and I am having Tuesday blues. I realized it was never Monday's fault.
