Monkey Jammies

My best girl Emmy sent me the sweetest care package before my first semester of law school finals. I know, I'm very lucky, she's amazing. In the care package was a set of pajamas with Monkeys on them. It has become a tradition for me over the past 2 years to wear my monkey jammies during the weeks while I was studying for finals. As appreciation, I drafted a set of "Haikus Honoring Monkey Jammies" last fall while procrastinating at the beginning of finals. Thanks again Emms. The monkeys have really helped.

Ode To Monkey Jammies

Oh Monkey Jammies
You keep me snug'ly and warm
My favorite pair

Monkeys are so cute
Reminding me of good things
Helping through exams

Monkeys arrived one
Year and a half ago and
Golly, I was glad

They came in a box
With finals goodies tucked in
I wore them daily

Fifteen days on me
Loyal true monkey jammies
Breakfast lunch dinner

Sobs spills sadness sleep
Study Sloppy Celebrate
Through all emotions

Put them on today
Eighteen days left my monkeys
Finals will be hard

We got through last time
We can do it again friends
Are you up for it?

Yes! the monkeys cheer
You wear us for eighteen days
And we bring you luck!

Emms is the best friend
We will tell her that we love
The monkey jammies

And thank her for the
Many other things she does
She's special to us

Eighteen more days left
Finals will be over soon
Monkeys will be glad!

Fortunately, I have two finals down, and only three to go. Will finally be done Monday the 14th! Much celebration. Work will be difficult Tues 15th in the a.m.

Wish us luck, ALC
