Thursday

By Joe

Sitting in front of my laptop this Thursday morning, I have been trying to figure out what to write, and I can’t think of a single thing. Only two things are running through my head: the new episode of Star Trek: Picard is out on Paramount+ and the chorus to a Lorrie Morgan song, “Except for Monday,” which goes like this:

Except for Monday, which was never good anyway
Tuesday, I get a little sideways
Wednesday, I feel better, just for spite
Thursday and Friday take too long
Before I know it, Saturday’s gone
But it’s Sunday now
And you can bet that I’m alright.

Thursday and Friday often seem like they take too long. I’m pretty sure this Thursday is definitely going to take too long, as I am in meetings all day.

About Joe

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's. My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces. View all posts by Joe

Writer’s block….not unlike the snow storms which continue to batter the area, interrupting my plans and leading to a dull day. However, the picture is aspiraational/inspirational and wish I was next to him, similarly unclad…Of course I’d like his physique, too.,.,.
