Well, everyone knows that Tuesday is the bottom end of the week. Monday is
"oh, how was your weekend" day, Tuesday is "oh, #!@%, it's AGES till the
weekend" day, Wednesday is "hump day" (i.e. if the week's a hill, you're
cresting the hump; or if you're an intern, it has another meaning :D),
Thursday is "Yay! Almost the weekend!" day, and Friday is "Oh, $@^%, I'm so
tired that I'm going to do NOTHING this weekend" day.
