On Behalf of Tuesday

It is now Tuesday. Tuesday is one of those days that has little or no meaning during the average week. Monday...the dreaded beginning of the week. The appearance of Wednesday indicates the middle of the week and half way to the weekend. Thursday is the day before Friday (which I believe I have explained before)! Thursday indicates that Friday is almost here. Finally, Friday. Friday is self-explanatory, since it is the beginning of the weekend, as is Saturday. Sunday is a mixed bag. Still the weekend but technically the day before Monday (which is not a good place to be in the grand scheme of things). Tuesday is just there. There is no pre-Wednesday anticipation at this point, nothing inherently interesting, exciting, or different about Tuesday's to point out.

The whole reason that we get so excited about Friday is because we don't have to work on the weekends. Right? The weekend is the time to go out with friends, go shopping, sleep in, investigate new and interesting places in your city. It's a time for rest and relaxation. It is the time away from the time you spend working...working time The whole point of the weekend is really to rejuvenate you for another long week at work.

So...I guess my thought is this: Tuesday really isn't so bad. In fact, there really is no difference between a Tuesday and a Friday. Ok, so I hear what you're thinking. Tuesday is not WONDERFUL, like a Friday, but when you don't have a job there is nothing to get away from and therefore nothing to look forward to on the weekend. There is really no difference between a Monday, a Wednesday, or a Tuesday (or any of the other days in the week). I am going to find something fun to do every Tuesday until I find something better to do with my time and I start living for Friday again.

  1. Love your logic! It's all about attitude, right? If we are working, we long for time off. If we are not working, we are too worried or broke to enjoy the time off. Wouldn't it be nice if we could enjoy whatever time we have ... working or not.
