The following are definitions of the word ‘Monday’. I wasn’t disappointed.
- Someone or something you hate with an extreme prejudice.
- The reason Sunday’s suck.
- An adjective describing the feeling of Monday. Usually gloomy, slow, or a cranky feeling. The emotions you feel about starting the week and having to survive until the weekend.
I am not a pessimist, in fact I tend to look at the lighter side of things,but sometimes we all have those days. The typical cliche quotes are sometimes what you may turn to to improve your day: Keep your chin up. Live every day like it’s your last. Life is a gift, treasure it., etc. But if everyday is a gift, then why can’t we return Mondays?!
According to the various definitions, people look forward to Mondays like they look forward to root canals. People can’t wait to wake up on a Monday morning like they cannot wait to phone their cellular service provider. Mondays are the most unwelcoming of all days, with a reputation that is used to describe situations and emotions:
“Seems like someone has had a case of the Mondays.”
“I HATE Paul. He is such a Monday!”
Okay so maybe that is a bit dramatic. I mean, poor Monday. It never did anything wrong. The first day of the week; eager to please and eager to help get you to start your week on the right foot. But none of us see it that way. Mondays’ black wave of dread has emanated into Sunday evenings and afternoons, which cuts your weekend by almost a third and makes the Carte Blanche theme music the most dreaded end-to-your-weekend song of all time.
We cannot escape Monday, Monday is ALWAYS coming. However, there just might be a delicious cure for the case of the Monday Blues. If there was one thing that could get you through a Monday it would be a fresh, crunchy salad followed by a juicy, tender steak and thin-cut crispy fries.
