The debate for and against doctor’s excuses

Often times, I had to work 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. Whenever I have the luxury of time to rest, my first refuge was always a DVD. Corporate life was really tiring, very stressful but at the midst of it all, I was also bored. I had to do the same things everyday. Truthfully, I could do my daily tasks with my eyes closed and my mind drifting off to sleep.

These days, I look forward to the quiet, the easy conversation, and... the 'y'all come back now, you hear!' The way I figure it, I now have the best of both worlds and what can be better than that.
