An Odd October Day
Insanity on display
That time of year, picnic foods
Invite the families, smile, don't be rude
Routine disrupted, chaos ensues
That time of year, I so dread
Count the wandering heads
Missing chairs, soft diets, an unwanted wandering guest
Insanity on display, a picnic spread
Log the complaints, smile, don't be rude
Pulling rabbits from a hat, pacify the spats
Dead husbands brought back at last, living spoofs
Administrators and vice-presidents serving guests
Making lists for me to complete the fix
Routine disrupted, chaos ensues, why not just quit
Schmoozing, kissing ass, smile, don't be rude
"Dog walking" gave me perspective, smile, don't be rude
Breathe deep, escort visitors to the door
Recount the wandering heads
Put confusion down to rest, help find their beds
Document the vitals, justify the narcs
Survived another day
An Odd October Day!
