Such a common metaphor, yet I can’t really say that I’ve seen it in complete harmony in person all that frequently.\u00a0 I know I’m a dirty swine for posting it, but it’s not like I get a bajillion hits from the anonymous world.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a kid, I never really liked Sundays.\u00a0 Sure, Sundays were technically a part of the weekend, but in all honesty, they’ve always had a symbolism for the ending that nobody wants.\u00a0 As far as I’m concerned, the “weekend” is technically whatever hours you have after working on a Friday, and Saturday.\u00a0 Sunday’s greatest luxury is the fact that, for the non-church going heathens like me, is that it is a day of sleeping in.\u00a0 Otherwise, the rest of the Sunday is spent with this feeling of a clock counting down knowing that the next day is a day of work, and that if you’re responsible, you end your day and go to bed at a time accordingly.<\/span><\/p>\n

When I was a kid, Sundays were spent inconveniently getting up earlier than I would have wanted in order to go to Catholic church, suffering through religious “learnings” and then coming home to dinner, and for some reason, I’m remembering a television medley consisting of shows such as\u00a0Parker Lewis, Can’t Lose, In Living Color, America’s Funniest Home Videos, The Simpsons,\u00a0<\/i><\/span>and some show on Nickelodeon.\u00a0 But in the back of my mind, I knew I had to go to bed early, because tomorrow, was school.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not a whole lot has changed, really.\u00a0 I slept in as much as I could, barely hitting eight hours.\u00a0 But in the back of my mind, I know that I have to sleep at a reasonable time, since I have to work in the morning.\u00a0 No soothing Dunkin’ Donuts coffee to take the edge off on all this early-evening fatigue, because it’s going to keep me up all night.\u00a0 No zbs until 1 a.m. otherwise, I’m going to snooze four times and not have adequate time to\u00a0Superman Banana<\/a>\u00a0before work.\u00a0 And right now, I’m brogging while I’m waiting for my turn to sit down and get in the squared circle with\u00a0IRS<\/a>.\u00a0 As it’s been the case the last few years, I’m probably going to owe money that I don’t really have right now.\u00a0 But at least it’ll be out of the way nice and early, and I can sit back and smugly watch people panic and the news exacerbate how epidemic tax season is.<\/span><\/p>\n

But really, Sundays kinda suck.\u00a0 Whomever concepted the five-day, 40-hour work week needs to have their grave(s) dug up, corpse(s) desecrated, and mixed into candy that those crazy killer homicidal kids in\u00a0Hostel<\/i><\/span>\u00a0from Bratislava would eat.\u00a0 In a much more adequate world, the weekends would be Saturday and Sunday, completely free and open, and Mondays allowing for reasonable sleeping in, and working “whatever you can do is fine.”<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
