So another remedy for the endless blah winter around here is to fool myself into thinking it's Friday - a day early.
In college, the fraternities and sororities used to have their big parties on Thursday nights. Not being Greek myself, I always wondered what they knew that I didn't. I mean, didn't they - at least some of them - have classes on Friday? Did they all, collectively, skip classes on Friday? But surely not every Friday, I mean, right?
Then I noticed as an adult that many restaurants and clubs have their Happy Hours on Thursday nights. On the one hand, these are probably the alumni fraternity and sorority members. Ha. But on the other hand, again, it got me wondering how all these people manage to struggle through the last day of the week.
Well, I've made a command decision. Better late than never. I'm going to start treating Thursday as the new Friday. I figure by Thursday, the hardest part of the week is over, no doubt. Plus, even if things are rough on Fridays and I'm sloughing through the day like a zombie...who cares? It's the last day of the week!
And THIS weekend is 3-days! Finally, a holiday! The last one until Frakkin' May, people!!
Students at DU don't have class on Fridays so they can ski. Whenever we try to schedule Friday morning events, it's one big hangover.
ReplyDeleteHope you're not a zombie today. Happy Friday!!
