Goofing Off

Written for National Goof Off Day

Goofing Off

Goofing off is fun
and a healthy way
to spend the day away
from your usual routine.

When you are under stress
goofing off relaxes you,
lowers your heart rate
and your blood pressure, too.

So spend the day
doing anything except
what you have to do
or are expected to do.

Turn your cellphone off
to prevent any interruptions
while you are goofing off,
and have a Happy Goof Off Day.
