Labor Day Weekend's upon us

I wasn't sure I was ready to admit that I had no friggin' idea what the history was of Labor Day but upon googling it, I feel that I'm probably not the only one. There's no significant person or historical moment, such as a war, that brought this about. Check out this link:

Did you know all this? Seriously? C'mon. I mean, I knew of the joke people tend to make every year about not working on Labor Day...what irony. Hardy-har-har. But I didn't know it was a holiday specifically made for the labor's union. So it's not ironic at all. Der!

Now that I know, I'll probably forget again and, if someone asks me next year, will fall short of an explanation for this holiday. Brain power's not what is used to be.

Thursday afternoon

There is a time on Thursday mornings - even Wednesday evenings - when I get excited that it's already Thursday. Thursday! So close to the end of the week, with something to still look forward to. Things begin to laze off at work and the weekend mentality arrives. I'm in NYC, after all, where even Monday nights are hopping.

This Thursday, though - TODAY - I keep psyching myself out.

It's Friday! No, wait, it's only Thursday...dammit!
I thought Thursday was great, though. Yesterday, you LIKED Thursday.
Thursday IS great, but it's not Friday...dammit!

Not only is the psyche-out annoying, but I can't recall the name/title of the blogspot I created on Sunday and was destined to create this one. What...a...nuisance.
