I think you&#8217;re mint.  I believe most people feel the same, but haven&#8217;t really consciously acknowledged their adulation for you.  Saturday and Sunday,  &#8220;The Weekend&#8221;, are the sovereign days that rule as king and queen, and people are usually thanking some deity for Friday.  Monday gets a mishmash of loathing and embracing as the beginning of the professional work week.  Tuesday is the day you have to put the trash out or attend some seminar and isn&#8217;t nearly close enough to next weekend. Wednesday, fondly referred to as &#8220;hump day&#8221;, is a midweek wildcard that can derail the rest of the week&#8230; and statistically speaking rarely delivers on its nickname&#8217;s promise.  But you Thursday, you are adaptable, welcoming, and fun.  You&#8217;re there for a long weekend.  You turn the beginning of the week into a distant memory.  You&#8217;re a good travel day.  You&#8217;re a great study and all-nighter day when something is DUE on Friday.  You&#8217;re a good date night.  You&#8217;re an ideal day for a gathering of friends.  You&#8217;re even given a holiday every November.  Thanks Thursday.  Thanks for being a mint of a day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You know what Thursday?
