1) I think I'm allergic to Wednesdays.
2) We lost 6-2 last night. I scored our first and distracted a defender enough to head into his own goal and put us 2-0 up. But then they had a really good player show up and they broke away to score six lucky goals.
3) There is no 3).

well wtg on scoring 2!

[kensson]

Well, I only scored one. The second goal I was just hovering about making a nuisance of myself and their defender came out of nowhere and did the scoring for me :o) But thanks!

I think everyone has a day of the week that they don't get on with. I don't like Tuesdays, and Arthur Dent "never could get the hang of Thursdays". He may be a fictional character, but his opinion still counts.

I meant it more like "Wednesdays make me sneeze", but I know what you mean. Thursdays used to be my bogeydays, but now they have football in which cheers me up no end :o)

Interesting corollary to your thought: nobody seems to like Mondays, and most people like Fridays.

Ah, but is that because of the intrinsic quality of Fridays, or because common working patterns mean that most people are looking forward to something on Fridays? The first half of Friday afternoon is one of the busiest parts of my working week, because that's when everyone realises that they've got things that they need the secretaries to do but have forgotten about or have been putting off, and also because there are more people in the building just before Friday afternoon coffee-and-biscuits (which is the quietest hour of the week because people who are eating biscuits in the staff room are too busy to pester secretaries. There are a lot of patterns you notice when much of your job involves keeping track of people's comings and goings, like the disproportionate number of Amazon packages that arrive the week after payday*.).
