It’s Monday … Yeah, and that means what?
Here, like anywhere, I run into people and I say, “So, how’s it going?” They usually reply by explaining to me that it’s Monday, and, well, you know, Monday doesn’t work out well because it’s just that, it’s Monday and Mondays are like that because, well, they’re Mondays; you know? The meandering sentence you just read is actually very intentional because that’s how it’s explained. Now the Monday meandering has a relation at the other end of the week known as Friday. So I see the same people and I ask them how the day is and they tell me that it’s Friday and it gets better after Friday. And that seems like it only leaves two days a week that might actually be enjoyable. While I get tired of work like anyone, I like my work and I wonder why enough of us aren’t doing the work we like. Why are we so anxious for the weekend and why is Monday the worst day of the week? And is there really one day a week set aside to be the worst day of the week? At any rate, meandering comments and run-on sentences are welcome just don’t tell me that you couldn’t find the time because, well, you know, it’s Monday and Mondays are like that; you know?
