dear thursday,

Hello!

I just woke up to you… and let me say, it’s nice to have you here, O Day-Before-Friday, O Day-of-Generally-Good-TV-When-I-Was-Younger…

I’ve always been a Thursday Person.

There’s something about the Day-Before-the-Day-Everyone-Else-Really-Likes that makes me want to love it, almost like an indie band that no one else has discovered but you KNOW will break big, or that little restaurant tucked away on a side street that has incredible food… but you can get right in, because the crowds are not yet lined up outside.

You can love Thursday and feel like you’re on the cusp… rather than just riding the trend.

It’s a day we’re all still working, yet a break is in sight.

It’s a day when you can’t start anything huge, but you can take on little two-day projects that will leave you feeling more than satisfied that you’ve accomplished something.

It’s a day when lots of people get paid, when the Nightly Special at the Pub is often rather tasty because it’s an Off Day, when you’re over the Hump (a phrase I hate, so I’m always happy to be over it), when you would begin to celebrate if you had a three-day-weekend, which we all know are the very best kind (well, second only to the four-day-weekend, which is both magical and somewhat mythical in this day and age of work, work, work.)

It’s a day I really like, because it’s a day that says, I Am Quietly Awesome.

A quality I love in clothes, shoes, men, music, flavours, and… Thursdays.

So thanks for coming out, Big T.

I’ll do my best to enjoy you.

With love,

Meg
