An Entirely Decent Day

I usually find that Tuesday is my least favorite day of the week.  I know Monday is generally the most reviled of weekdays, but I do not agree with this notion.  True, on Monday it's back to the grind, but at least you are well-rested and coming into work straight off of a weekend of relaxation.  Tuesday, not so much.  It's not yet halfway through the week, the end is not yet in sight, etc.  Tuesdays are, generally speaking, the worst.

Nevertheless, I declare this to be an entirely decent Tuesday (EDT).  My reasoning is as follows:

(1) The new Josh Ritter album, So Runs the World Away, was released.  Yes, I've been streaming it over NPR for the last week, but this is exciting nonetheless.  As a result,

(2) I took an entirely too-long-for-my-lunch-hour bike ride down to Waterloo Records to procure said album, and thereby enjoyed the loveliness of a spring afternoon in Austin, Texas.

(3) Upon finishing and posting this blog entry, I intend to walk across the street and redeem by free birthday coffee coupon at Kick Butt Coffee.

(4) After a week's hiatus, there is a new LOST tonight, and as I am easily excited, this is enough to make the day a good one.

So take heart, my friends, a persevere.  For though your Tuesday might not be an entirely decent Tuesday, rest assured that time marches onward...
