A conversation between Jerry (Gene Kelly) and Lise (Leslie Caron) from Minnelli's"An American in Paris" (1951)
Jerry: In America, Saturday night is the big night. No work, no school, and when you get home-- no money!
Lise: Haha! And Sunday? Sunday nights in America?
Jerry: Sunday? In America, everybody catches a cold on Sunday.
Lise: Did you?
Jerry: Sometimes.
I feel the same way as Jerry. I kinda hate Sundays.
Instead of being the most relaxing day of the week, Sunday is one of the more stressful ones. I find that I spend a majority of my Sundays locked up in my room toiling away on my classwork. It's so depressing, especially on a beautiful day like today-- 75 degrees and sunny. I would have rather been hiking! Yesterday was a terrible weather day. It was humid, rainy, and gloomy. Why couldn't Saturday and Sunday switch their weather forecasts? It would have made staying inside a bit more tolerable.
Whenever Sunday rolls around, I adopt a melancholy mood. Poo, poo, poo. Lame, lame, LAME!
Jerry had it right. I think I'm coming down with something.
*cough, cough! sniffle, sniffle!*
If you'll excuse me, I still have an ass-load of work that needs to get done...

ur blog rox! I totally agree about Sunday's, they pretty much always suck. However, I do like Sunday afternoons, partially because I've had nice times on the Quad last year just sitting around and pretending to work, and also because that's when I would get out of church when my mom used to make me go, so I've probably got some positive/negative associations with that. See yuh!
