Today's Discussion is on My Favorite and Least Favorite Days of the Week

Okay, this one is probably the staple choice for most people, but my favorite is Saturday and my least favorite is Wednesday. You can move on to another post now! Or, you can stick around to read a brief lecture about the days of the week in correlation to how glimmer spends her time.

Everyone always says Mondays are their least favorite (insert Garfield joke here), which is totally understandable as it is the day most of us full-timers go back to work after our always too short weekend. What I don't like about Mondays is they act like Sundays on occasion when they fall on a holiday where we get out of work (more about my dislike for Sundays coming up). To me, however, they are the start to a new week, and usually the first day back to work is busy enough that I don't get too caught up in it. I tend to stream more on Mondays, so I get excited to coming back from work to do something I love.

Tuesdays are also pretty bad (don't worry - I won't say this about every day)! To me, they feel more like a Monday than Mondays do. You come to work for the second time of the week and you are like "Oh yeah I didn't do this, this and this yesterday, so now I gotta do it." I feel like people are more forgiving on Mondays and Fridays when it comes to buckling down to do work. Tuesdays, however? Nah that stuffs got to get done!

My least favorite day of the week is Wednesday (insert "hump day" commercial joke here if that reference means anything to you). The idea of Wednesday being a "hump day" is that it is the middle of the work week, so you just have to get over the hump and you are golden. Well, NO person who made that up - you still have Thursday and Friday! You aren't "almost there." Wednesday also has always been the hardest working day for me, as I feel there is more of a rush for people to send you work that piles up as they know they need it done by the end of the week. I have been given plenty of tough assignments on Wednesday, due Friday at the end of the day. Wednesdays are NEVER fun. It's almost always the day I end up skipping lunch to eat quickly at my desk.

Thursday is okay. Thursday is the day before Friday, so you are like almost there, but not quite. It feels like getting second place. So, it really isn't that good of a feeling. Usually the tough work is getting done this day too, so that doesn't make it all too pleasant.

Friday is the last day of work for the week, which usually means someone makes a joke about Fridays in the group chat and usually discussions spiral into chaos as no one really cares about what work gets done that day. Sometimes assignments are due Fridays, but they can be done in a lazy amount of time and turned in half-assed and no one seems to care much. That's to worry about on Monday. Fridays are great because many out-loud discussions take place and the room gets pretty loud, but it is a fun change of pace than the usual coughing fit outbursts or sneezes in a usually quiet room.

On to the best day of them all - Saturday! You get to sleep in. You can go to the Farmer's Market. You can eat all day in your bed watching Netflix and playing your Nintendo Switch. No one ever tells you that you are wasting your time or that you should be doing something else, because it is the first day of the weekend! That's the actual Netflix and chill day baby! My Saturdays as of late have been pretty busy, but its been a good kind of busy - like hanging out with friends at the mall or seeing my sister who lives a little farther away. Saturdays are fun, and your mind has no worry about the next day because it is still the weekend.

Sundays are my second least favorite day of the week (Fridays are probably my second favorite by the way). This seems like a weird pick, as it is still part of the weekend, but I swear to you, something always bad happens to me on a Sunday. Bad as in not in a superstitious way at all. Bad as in a "oh crap I forgot to do this" sort of way. Many people, especially us full-timers at work or school, dislike Sundays because we tend to put things off to the last minute (if you just thought that's not me then you are SO lying to yourself right now) and have to finish them up by Sunday night. Working late on a weekend night is the WORST! To top it off, its the LAST day of the weekend! You have to worry about the next day's outfit, breakfast/lunch, gather up your ID badge, keys, wallet, loose change, keys, pick up gas for your car, get groceries, etc. etc. Hmm...maybe I hate Sundays more than Wednesdays?

There you have it! Do you agree? Disagree? Start those comments a'rollin'!
