"Thursday's child has far to go"

My favourite day of the week is Thursday. Now, I don't mean to say that I don't like the other days of the week -- particularly Saturdays and Sundays, of course -- but Thursdays are different. By the time you get to Thursday you've gotten through over half of the week already. You've past Wednesday (aka "hump-day"), and you only have one more day to go before the weekend. The end of the week is near, but there's still time to get work done and finish with a sense of accomplishment. There's a hope and anticipation for the weekend that builds until Friday night when you suddenly realise that the weekend has already started, and you're not ready for it.

Paydays are on Thursdays.

TV is better on Thursdays.
I love Thursdays.

Monday's Child

Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,

Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go,
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for a living,
But the child that's born on the Sabbath day
Is bonny, blithe, good and gay.

FYI : I'm a Saturday's child.
