Countdown

I'm approaching another milestone in this life. July 23rd will mark fifty years that I've been coming to work at this place. How many people can say that? So, I need to last until then. 

My luck, I'll suffer a career ending injury around 2:45pm on July 22nd. 

A few of those early years were just two or three summer months before returning to college but then things happened, and I ended up there for good. I used to wonder how I would make it through each month financially but poof!! Here I am all these years later. It appears that I made it through ok. Things worked out. Maybe it's permitted to ease up on worrying. 

Maybe they'll give me a watch? I'd be happy with a cupcake. Or a complimentary peanut butter cookie from the vending machine in the break room. Probably though, no one will know. Unless one of my coworkers is secretly one of my four avid viewers here. 🤣🤣🤣
