promising sleet

Why is the second day back at work always more tiring than the first one?

(Okay, stupid question.)

The weather forecast promises sleet. I'm torn. A bit of artistic light sleet would be quite attractive, and in many ways more interesting than the current heavy slate sky, but a lot of wet sleet would be extremely annoying. Particularly if I have to do much walking in it.

Dilemma

I want to be
famous
so I can be
humble
about being
famous.

What good is my
humility
when I am
stuck
in this
obscurity?
