Thursday*

Comes after Wednesday and before Friday. It's also the day of the week where I find I have no thoughts and have done nothing but work and yoga, both of which I have written about before. Incidentally, it also means Thor's Day which entitles you to go around and hit people with hammers. Some call it Friday Eve which is a ploy to make oneself feel better about the fact that it is not Friday at all. It's kind of a useless day that just reminds you that your week is still not over.
Are you going to be the one to say no to Thor?
*Honestly, I wouldn't even bother reading this.  Unless you're really bored.  In which case, as my mother used to say (and then I would say in return...):
  • Have a nice drink of water. Oh great idea, I'm so much less bored now.
  • Why don't you use your imagination. I'm imagining not being bored and it's really great.
  • Clean your room.  Generally not even dignified with a response.
  • Do you want to learn how to iron? Can I?  Add that to my resume of non-boring things.
  • Play a game with your brother.  I did.  I cut his hair and left it behind your bedroom door but you don't like me playing that game.
  • Go outside and run around.  In circles?  To a location?  Have you met me?  I read.  I don't run.

Meatless Monday

Did you know there is a global-wide organization that promotes going without meat on Mondays? It's now active in 34 countries. Apparently it's good for health reasons and the planet*. 

If I find out that someone has started Muffinless Monday's, Taco-No-Go Tuesdays, Waffle-Without Wednesday's, Tequila-No Bueno Thursday or Friand-Free Friday, the shit is going to hit the fan.  I am thankful there is no letter of the week that starts with "C".  Anyone trying to go global with a cakeless day of the week will wish they had never been born.  And will also be a recipient of one of my "looks".  Probably my "hi, sorry, but I really am not a huge fan of that idea, maybe we could compromise" look.  That's right, I can be very intimidating.

 
*To be honest, I have tried this but I found that too many lentils died in the process.
