why tuesday?

I picked up my kindergarten notebook today. No, I don’t keep it on quick reference in my library, I was clearing out my storage room. I started flipping through it. My favorite color: Blue. My favorite animal: Tigers. My favorite day of the week: Tuesday. My favor- Wait. What? Tuesday? Who likes Tuesday?! It’s right after Monday and Friday does not follow? Why Tuesday? I read on. “I like Toosday beecuz it is rite in the middul of the week.” It was a quote, I had to use the exact spelling. Suddenly, I started thinking about it. Right in the middle of the week, eh? I was one happy kid. Monday through Thursday is usually the grind. The work. Then it hit me. If you’re happy with the world you are living in, the middle of the week might as well be a Saturday. I am holding these connotations to days. Like: Monday sucks. Why? It’s Monday. Well, why does Monday suck? Maybe I’ll get ice cream on Monday. Regardless, I realized that I had to stop. I had to start living for living. I enjoy my weeks. Why do I hate Tuesday? I obviously used to love it. It’s time for a change. (insert motivational music here)
