A Post-Holiday Carol

White Workday
(sung to the tune of “White Christmas”)

blossom.JPGI’m dreaming of a white workday
just like the ones I used to know,
where the pavement glistens
and workers listen
to hear our office closed by snow.

I’m dreaming of a white workday
with every spreadsheet that I fill.
May your days, may your days, may your days have a negative windchill,
because from now on, New York’s never will.

I’m dreaming of a white workday
with every memo that I write.
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why Al Gore was riiiight
that my winter workdays won’t be white?

    Don’t question it, just enjoy it. Today was great. No jacket needed outside in the middle of January.

    Personally speaking, I welcome global warming. I can’t wait for Alphabet City to become prime beachfront property.
