Manic Monday or Sunday Funday

In the infamous words of the Bangles "It's just another manic Monday I wish it were Sunday
'Cause that's my funday My I don't have to runday It's just another manic Monday ". SOOO this isn't a post about the drollness of Mondays although come on every has to to admit Monday is the shittest day of the week. Instead it's about the feelings we associate with the days of the week.
Most Business weeks start on a Sunday so here we go....

Sunday: Once was a time when you were meant to rest. In some religions that is still a strictly enforced doctrine. However in the modern world it's mostly an excuse for stores to close early when in reality most people have Sunday off so it's a good day to have a store open. It still had the feeling of low key afternoon sipping iced tea or beer reading a paper and laughing. I had Sunday off for the first time in ages and I chanted, read, cleaned, cooked, wrote some blog posts- it was divine!

Monday: I have never in my life ever heard anyone say Monday was their favorite day of the week. Obviously it's the first day back at work for most typical jobs and that usually isn't pleasant unless you work for one of those awesome companies like Pixar.(Side Post: When you join Pixar Animation Studios, you become part of a studio driven by creativity, technical know-how, and a sense of humor to boot. You’ll be working side by side with some of the most brilliant minds in their fields, interspersing your own ideas with theirs to collectively make the best films possible. Taylor Software Engineer "Pixar is not a gloomy cubicle farm like so many companies (seen Office Space?) but a bright, happy place full of well adjusted people"). If you work at Pixar I am seriously jealous!

Tuesday: What can one say about Tuesday?? Well it's not as bad as Monday it's like the 2nd step sister in Cinderella still not good but not at bad as the mean one. You kind of feel like you're getting somewhere but you still feel stuck. BEST DAY TO FLY AND BOOK PLANE TICKETS!

Wednesday: Hump day - I still remember the first time I heard that phrase and it caught me really off guard... There is a sense of accomplishment with a Wednesday the hardest part is over and in a few days it will be the weekend. On a Wednesday night you will probably be doing something relatively fun as a reward for you hard work on M&T.

Thursday: Recently it's taken on the name Thirsty Thursday for those who can't quite wait till the weekend to let go and relax. Your so close to the finish line you can almost taste it! So why not start a little early you only live once and relaxation is a key to a long life.

Friday: WAHOOO you made it! Fridays are awesome who doesn't love them?!?!? Know to be a key going out night you can hang out with friends and probably don't have to get up early :) sweet have fun you deserved Fridays definitely = a feeling of accomplishment and success. An added bonus it is usually pay day so you have money to spend on all you crazy weekend plans double score.

Saturday: it's not as relaxing as Sunday because you're usually running around going for hikes, catching a movie, organizing a sock drawer, anything you haven't had the chance to do all week because you were so busy. Don't forget to take a little time out to chill and enjoy the sunshine it's the weekend!

Now these are the time honored ideas that one associates with each day... unless of course you work in retail or a restaurant then all of this means nothing because you rarely have a normal schedule!!
 what's your favorite day of the week? ~S~
