Sources here at Chocolate For Your Brain learned today in an annonymous Tweet, that Wednesday, formerly Wodan's Day or Odin's Day, has taken the next week off. When asked why, she admitted it's been building for a while, but between Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Fat Tuesday and Holy Thursday, and the weekends themselves, Wednesday is feeling discouraged. "Hump day? Seriously? That's the best we can do?"
Pointing out Ash Wednesday didn't brighten her spirits.
"I want a holiday, one with I don't know, fancy drinks, an earworm song, maybe a traditional activity like making chili or running a 5K, flash mob dancing the moves to Thriller and releasing paper lanterns into the sky."
When pressed as to why, she explained, "There's nothing that sets me apart from the rest of the week. Even Monday has all those Garfield cartoons, and those songs by Foriegner, the Bangles and the Mommas and the Pappas, Saturday has Elton John and the Bay City Rollers, plus no one ever gets sad it's the weekend. Friday has a chain of restaurants and a tone of movies with his name in the title, not to mention a book where he's the secondary lead."
"You forgot Dragnet."
"Exactly! ....wait, whose side are you on?"
"No one's. Just remembering other associations for other days. Thursday doesn't seem to have too many references out there."
"He's got a whole comic book character named after him who's an Avenger. Even two solo movies for Thor. He's also still coasting from the years when he dominated TV, with Cheers, and now an early jump on weekend Football."
"Tuesday doesn't..."
"She has a restaurant, a holiday and a Beatles song. Don't get me started on her. She sends me a Halloween card every year. Do you know what it is?"
"No."
"I have her most recent one....here."
Happy Halloween Wednesday, Too bad it fell on a Monday this time. But in two years, it will be your turn. Love, T.
"How did you know it was Tuesday? It says "Love, T."
"Thurs always signs "The TH!" I think he thinks it's cool."
"What will you do with your day off?"
"Are you trying to be funny?"
"No! You're taking your day out of the week, what are going to do with it?"
"Thurs always signs "The TH!" I think he thinks it's cool."
"What will you do with your day off?"
"Are you trying to be funny?"
"No! You're taking your day out of the week, what are going to do with it?"
"Well, I did discover when I opted out, it became very hard to book an appointment, since no one knew when the appointments would actually happen so I plan on going to my favorite spa as a walk in, and maybe hitting the book store, followed by lunch at a local restaurant, maybe a glass of wine with dinner and a movie."
"Got a date with anyone special?"
"As a matter of fact yes, I have a date with February 29th. He was very cute about it when I asked if he'd join me for sushi. He said he'd have to check his calendar."
