If you’re battling a bad case of the Mondays, we hear you, we feel you, we see you. But just because the nose is firmly back to the grindstone for another full week doesn’t mean that there isn’t still a lot of fun to be had out there in that big beautiful world—it’s just that we’ll have to wait until work’s done to revel in it.
