Meh day..

As I sit around and await the most exciting event of my day (Piggly Wiggly is gonna drop my groceries on the doorstep today).. I figured whyintheheck not see/read all about Tuesday.  I hate when people use copy and paste, nonetheless:  

"Tuesday gets its name from the Anglo-Saxon's god of war Tiu, also known as Tyr to the Vikings. The Romans named their third day of the week after their god of war, Mars. That is why romantic languages like Spanish, French and Italian all have similar names for Tuesday: martes, mardi, and martedi."

The Greeks consider Tuesday as a day of bad luck. They associate Tuesday with Ares, the God of War.. .. Tuesday in Greek is "Triti: which means the third, bad luck comes in threes.   

Simularly, Spanish speaking countries consider Tuesday as bad luck:  "Don't marry, go on a journey, or leave your house on Tuesday (thus, Piggly Wiggly delivery).. More uninspiring Tuesday notes: 

Whilst commuters Pavlov dog it to work on Tuesdays, in the back of their minds they're thinking of retirement, naps, no alarm clock, Fiji and Fufu drinks, still it is the most productive work day of the week. Since Mondays, historically, suck ("Take this job and shove it") Tuesday is also the the day the most job applications come in. 

"Hey Eve, looky at what I found", ie, Tuesday is the day Uranus was discovered. Sorry, kinda, have a sense of humor. 

Tuesday is Wimpy's payday (The hamburger thing), but there are conspiracy theories to that as he never comes around on Tuesdays.

I'm  deducting some folks sit around with remorse on Monday about weekend events, so, guilt leads more Catholics to Confession on Tuesday, moreso than any other day. 

The stock market crashed in 1928 (Black Tuesday) pushing the US into the Great Depression.. D-Day also was on a Tuesday.  

Susan Ker Weld's little cousin could not say her name, uttering "tu-tu' instead, thus, in 1959 she had her name legally changed to Tuesday Weld. For some reason Tuesday is associated with pink - sure I don't mind wearing it, but per the Spaniards, "stay at home", so I do.  

Rudy Tuesday was wrtten by Kieth Richard' about his girlfriend of the 60's, Linda Keith.. Who could hang a name on you When you change with every new day? Still, I'm gonna miss you.

Of course Tuesday is known as Taco Tuesday, but for some reason, Californians choose to BBQ on this day instead, 

This is boring, so I'll get outta here, but, before I do, my favorite Tuesday tradition.  Every Tuesday, precisely at 10pm, the students in the residential area of Lappis near the University of Stockholm, open their windows and shout in an attempt to release all the stress brought on by university activities and life in general. Residents are invited to as well, provided they do so exactly at 10pm.

Yesterday's positive diddy was to change your digital scale from pounds to kilos... today's diddy is to set your alarm for 9:59pm tonight so we can all open windows at 10, then scream, shout, get ridda pandemic, political, couped-up-ed-ness, 2020 yuck.

I'll glady pay you Tuesday for a 60-something, rich, divorced, hard of hearing, no speaky English blonde today...

Love, Victurd
