Long Time, No Post

We're all agreed at the office that Tuesdays are the worst.

Tuesday lacks the notoriety of Monday. Yet the 24 hours separating Tuesday from the weekend do not soften much the impact of a new week (assuming one is on a Monday-Friday schedule). Wednesday--hump day--has always been neutral. The end is in sight, but it's not quite the release provided by Thursday, considered by some to be the best day of the work week. Thursday has a leg up over Friday because one can revel in anticipation. Friday night, although it's the beginning of the weekend, can be a bust just because one's energy might be sapped after five days of work.

John Porcellino's Perfect Example is perfectly lovely. Next, I will be tackling the 592-page graphic novel Blankets, by Craig Thompson, which a friend recommended highly.
