the teaser day
years ago, thursdays used to be just anyother day. they came between wednesday and friday. usually i would have some sort of test or project that would happen on these days. thursdays were not important because friday sat on the horizon.
friday.
the day of paychecks and partying. those days when you would get your paycheck, go right to the bank, deposit some money and keep a substantial portion to spend on the delicacies of the partying college student that was kindofa hippie-but bathed.
but things have changed. now, every thursday, i am paid at work. (yes, i am paid weekly) this would be a great thing except for the fact that i still have to work the next day. i cannot eagerly anticipate the coming evening because i will have to wake up the next morning and trudge off to work.
instead, i find myself doublethinking myself into being responsible. i plan out how i will pay off bills and maintain a reliable budget that will sustain me in this rather expensive city that i find myself in.
i know that some of you are reading this and saying, "well ben, thats part of growing up. it's good to see that you are becoming a responsible adult. i don't know why you seem surprised by this."
i dont mean to be crass or rude, but fuck off. i am just lamenting the fact that my days of simple pleasures are gone and i now have to plan out a time when i can indulge my senses and relax.
god. today is going to take forever.
