Thursday… most noble of predecessors, the one day of true accomplishment set in a string of under-achievements. No other day can boast of burgeoning weekend or carry with its eve the subtle reminders of anticipated events on the horizon, just beyond the setting sun, off the port bow.Today, for today only, stand on the folksail and breathe the heartiness of the sea air. Make that little extra effort to open your lungs and your mind to the possibilities looming before you in the oceans of opportunity life brings; ride the clippers on waves of extracted effort, the breeze of hope tantalizing and exhilarating you, daring you to be more, to do more. Toss all the carcasses of doubt and fear overboard and revel in the glory of the day.
Sail freely with the wind, content in the knowledge that your destination will be reached. After all, today is Thursday… and those special deck shoes cost you nearly 2 bills.

Hey, you've messed up my whole schedule. All day I proceeded as though it was Friday. I'll just have to do Thursday tomorrow I guess!
I thought it was Friday, too! Did Bob spin us into an alternate universe?
Shirley and Jo-- Now look what you've done... you've ruined a perfectly good misunderstanding of what day it is!
Okay, just go back and re-read the passage, but this time just pretend that you're reading "Friday" everywhere you see a "Thursday"...
I think I need to call my talk-doctor.
I'm so glad to have found your blog... :)

the hang of Thursday
