If you work Monday to Friday, you more than like dread Mondays, and love when Friday finally shows its face at 7:00am in the morning, when you're more than likely too groggy to realize that the weekend is right around the corner. I tend to dread any day of the week where I have to wake up before 6:00am, but Mondays tend to be the worst.
Mondays are always bad, no matter what time you wake up though, because it's the start of a new week, the end of the weekend. Whether you work Monday to Friday, or part-time as a bartender on Wednesdays, Mondays have always been known as a terrible day of week. It seems that the middle of the week really go by quick as long as you have a good Monday.Friday for me on the other hand, is just as bad as a Monday. Atleast in Houston, where the freeways seem to be the most crowded. Traffic is only a quarter of my problem with weekly events though.
Let's list a few of the things about daily life that really test my pateience, and make me question the intelligence of the average human being.
This combination:
Not only are your shoes ridiculous looking, but put this combo with a mini-skirt, and you're one stop away from walking the streets for money.
When people do this:
Granted, this picture is from Europe, people here do it going 70mph at 6:30am, which is not exactly the brightest idea in the world.
Now I want to go over one more thing, and I'm sure lots of people hate me for saying it, but I really think it's gone a little too far.
This Haiti relief effort is ridiculous. It's been over 3 weeks since a 7.0 earthquake hit Port-Au-Prince, in Haiti. Almost a month later, our wonderful country, who has anywhere from 700,000 to 2 million homeless at any given time of day, has chosen to help out a country who has absolutely nothing to do with ours. Not only are we giving millions of dollars to them for reconstruction purposes, but nearly half of commercials on TV now are geared towards donating money to them. Every company is pushing donation to them down your throat as if it were the most saintly thing to do. As an average consumer, I couldn't care less about giving some of my hard earned money to a worthless cause for a country I know nothing about.
Now that's it for today, and until next Monday, there may not be anything else this weekend that absolutely makes no sense. We'll see though, as always, I have low standards for my fellow humans. Pessimism aside, this is my daily view on life, and it more than likely won't change.
