It's been a while, I apologize

Everyone always says it's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all. What about the converse? Is it worse to have lost and gained than to have never lost at all? I'm not sure if that's true. When you get what you wanted after losing, it feels all the better getting it. But who really wants to suffer? Chicken and the egg, man. Chicken and the egg.

But the four day week is an undeniably nice thing

The three day weekend really is an interesting beast. Namely, what to do with Sunday? Given that Thursday night is the new Friday, Sunday becomes the fourth consecutive weekend day on a three day weekend (except for those for whom Sunday is the new Thursday, which will probably be the new rage by the end of next year). And that's almost too much weekend. If you're out partying over half the week anyway, what do you really need a break from? There's no longer a necessity for a weekend if you're taking a break from the partying to work.

The silent beauty of Sundays was that it was really designed for the college student. It's just a day to work. Other people can watch football, go gardening, whatever, but it's the most convenient day possible for a college student. No real obligation in terms of classes, but you know you can't be incapacitated the next morning. The three day weekend kind of ruins that.

Not that it's a bad thing. It's a very, very, good thing.
