Thursday is the Best Day of the Week

I love Thursdays.

Thursday is a day of infinite possibilities, and it has long been my favorite day of the week. 

Now, obviously, people will reasonably argue that a workday, a school day, cannot be as great as a weekend. Even Friday has to be better because while it's a work/school day for most people, it's also the kickoff to the weekend. Friday night is always a party, and for good reason.

But hear me out.

If you are having a busy week with a lot on your plate, then a Thursday offers the chance to get good work done, and you still have a day to finish up before the weekend. So Thursdays can be very productive -- no sense of panic because there is still time in the week. 

On the other hand, if you are having a miserable week that seems like it will never end. If it's the kind of day that has been Tuesday three days in a row, then Thursday offers some relief. When you wake up on Thursday, you realize, "Ok, I just have to get through today and then tomorrow is Friday." And Fridays are always awesome because nothing has to be done on Fridays -- whatever is left over can be pushed to Monday.

We all know Mondays are the absolute worst, and Thursday is the furthest thing from Monday. And let's face it, while Fridays are great, and Saturdays are pure joy, there is always the creeping feeling that Monday is coming soon. As wonderful as Sundays can be, there is an impending gloom over getting up Monday morning. 

But none of that anxiety messes with a Thursday. On Thursday, the long dreary week is beginning to fade in the rearview mirror, and the glorious weekend is just peeking over the horizon. 

So, enjoy your Thursday, arguably the best day of the week.
