I always seem to be blogging about my weekends on a Tuesday. It’s such a Tuesday today
Each day of the week has its own personality that makes it what it is.
Monday – Monday is a day of frantic confusion. Everyone has forgotten over the weekend what was really supposed to be done by Monday, the stark realization of the craziness of the week ahead and whatever exhaustion was built up over the last two days of fun.
Tuesday – Tuesday is a day of remorse. That is when one realizes that they still have a long week ahead, a pile of work to do and no end near I sight. Monday flew by fast with people running around like chickens with their heads cut off, you woke up today a realist.
Wednesday – Wednesday is a day of hope. You see the end of the week is near. The pile of work is becoming smaller, nothing too bad is being thrown at your desk. Everyone tends to be a little bit more optimistic.
Thursday – Thursday is probably the most productive day of the week. You know tomorrow is Friday, and that the weekend is the day after that. Knowing such wonderful information, motivation to have no work left on your desk Friday afternoon drives you to be the best little worker elf you can be.
Friday – Friday, there is even a restaurant dedicated to the day, there was a block of TV shows to celebrate the occasion and an acronym to signify the appreciation we have to the last day of the work week. This is the one day that slacking off just a little bit is accepted. You got most of your work done during the week; whatever you have left can be left for Monday, maybe Sunday if you are a good little girl or boy. People are more relaxed, they even decide to go crazy and wear Hawaiian shirts to work when everyone else knows that they should be left on the island. Tomorrow you can sleep in, tomorrow you can cook out, and tomorrow you can be who you want to be. It won’t be till Sunday evening when you realize that, yes, you do have a job/school that yes, you do have to wake up around the same time as the sun again, and that yes, you will have another pile of work waiting for you to do.
