Wednesday, or, why three-day weekends are a bad idea.

Three-day weekends are a bad idea.  I know, I know, I’m taking the minority opinion on this one, but they are!  Oh sure, we all love having that extra day, we all say we’ll get stuff done with it – do our laundry, go through our filing cabinets, possibly even take a trip and spend time grilling hot dogs or baking pies with the family.  And some people I am sure, actually do that.  They spend the weeks ahead of time planning the weekend, buying the necessary equipment, lawn chairs, or ingredients.  And I was one of these people.  And what did I end up doing this weekend?

I slept.

Well, I must have, because otherwise I had a blackout experience and have no idea where the weekend went.  Saturday?  A blur.  Sunday?  Shopping then a blur of hot dogs and fireworks and vegetating.  Sunday?  Pretty sure I actively tried to stay in bed until noon.  All of this means that I don’t get any of my weekend work done, and my blogging, which I try to do on Sunday nights, is pushed to Wednesday.  Wednesday, people!  So, if you could cool it with the vacations and three-day weekends that wreak havoc on my schedule, I’d appreciate it.  I ask this not for me, but for you.

All incredulousness aside, I had a lovely three-day weekend, what I remember of it, and this week is going to be spent cleaning out files, and cabinets, and doing all those things I haven’t gotten around to yet J

Happy reading!
