Tuesday, for several years many have wondered at it's secrets. Is tuesday merely the second day of the week-- or third, depending on when you start counting? Some tell tales of buying three small pizzas (called medium for some reason... goddamn tall brained marketeers) for only FIVE american dollars a piece. Ancient Germanic tribes named the day after their god of war, thus giving rise to the saying "Angry Tuesday". But how does the average slob in the street honor this, the second or third day in the week? With anger? With pizza? This thread will attempt to explain these perplexing mysteries.

Me, I plan on sitting in this chair, staring at this computer, and doing as little as possible until quitting time. Not so little that my check doesn't come on Friday, or course, but little enough. What about the rest of you bums?

I hate my job and yearn for quitting time. But, I hate my house and yearn to be out of it. I think I am just a wholly unhappy person, regardless of the day of the week.

Why, what's your job? Oh, and what's wrong with your house?

Also:

Have you considered moving and getting another job?

I work for my parents and I rent from my parents. I am 25 years old and they show up at my house whenever they want. Lately my mother has started sleeping there. They follow me and have to know my every move. They use my job as leverage to control me. I think about moving and getting a new job everyday. But where would I go? They have made it so that I really don't believe I can make it on my own. Of course my Dad and my Step-mother a furious that they have done this to me. They believe that I am just as able as everyone else and they are my biggest support, but.............I'm scared to just move away from the cushion of money my mother and step-father use to control me and I can't explain why.

Sorry....that answer may have been more than you were looking for this early. :eek:

Well, yes. Actually it was. But the die is cast! So be it...

I guess the real question is whether your cushion of money is worth your perceived misery. I suspect most people accept a certain level of misery in exchange for money.
 
I'm going to the aquarium in Salt Lake today. I've heard it's small, but all we've got and I'm sure Haylee is going to enjoy it immensely. So for me, Tuesday is a happy day.

Where I live, this tale is true every day. :eek:

Baltimore has a pretty kick-ass aquarium. They've even got a place where you can go and watch them degrade marine mammals.

Also:

Visiting aquariums always makes me hungry.

I like small aquariums. They tend to have more interesting exhibits. The Dallas World Aquarium for example, is in a little building in downtown Dallas, and my son LOVES the place. It's basically a recreation of a rainforest, with a pathway that winds around from canopy level to the ground and a river some 50-60 feet below with birds flying around in the open air around you, monkeys, etc. It's great.

They have tons of other stuff, that's just the big centerpiece. Less huge exhibits means more money to make the smaller ones way more interesting.
