having my weekends be monday-wednesday has done wonders for me!! yes you miss out on some weekend festivities BUT it means that your days off are truly YOURS. parks are wide open, stores are empty, traffic ain't too bad, the city is MINEEEEE
why would you wait until the weekend to do something fun and spontaneous? I am a huge proponent of doing something fun on a weekday. like fuck it - ya know. life is too short to only look forward to the weekends.
at the very least, do it during daylight hours. it’s a really nice hard reset that gives space to both myself and friends. maaaybe i’ll see some people at night, who knows, i need some time to think first
