Blogophilia Week 44.15 – Rush Hour

This is Week 44 in Year 15 of Blogophilia! And look out, because it’s RUSH HOUR!!!

*************************************

He gets up early about seven o’clock
The alarm goes off and then the house starts to rock
In and out of the bathroom by seven-o-three
By seven-ten he’s downstairs drinking his tea
So put a shine on your shoes
Put on your pin-striped suit
Can’t lose those early-morning
Can’t-stop-yawning
Push-and-shoving
Rush-hour blues

Darling, are you ready?
You’ll be late for the bus!
Don’t rush me, baby
While I’m using my brush

Get a move on, darling
You’re cutting it fine
Cool it, baby
I’ve got plenty of time

“Rush Hour Blues” by the Kinks

Watch out now, it’s RUSH HOUR!! That inevitable dreadful time where you’re rushing to get to work or trying to get home. How do you cope with getting stuck in traffic? What keeps you calm? Do you have alternate escape routes? Or do you flex your work hours to avoid it altogether? Are you patient, or do you curse in your car, haha? Come share your thoughts and scribbles at Blogophilia!

Blogs should be submitted on or before Midnight (EST), Saturday, May 4, 2024 at 11 EST!! Please TAG Martien Ecrits by including his name within your blog content. In doing so, your blog will show up on his timeline. You may also post your blog link in the comment section below and/or post your blog link on the group Ecrits Blogophilia page.

There are no longer any guesses for the topic, bonus prompts or picture submissions, nor points awarded for any of these. As stated in our relaunch blog, the Blogophilia challenge has eliminated point scoring, tallying, tracking and awarding jackets. We have moved to a kinder, gentler blogging group that is no longer a competition based on points. Instead, we aim to be inclusive, collaborative and encouraging of writers!!

So what are you waiting for? Start Writing!!!
