Peer Pressure

If you don't drink or do drugs or own a house on the water, or maybe a yacht, weekends are often a drag. There's so much pressure to have a good time. But what if your cat just died? Or you have a urinary tract infection? Fortunately neither of those things are the case for me at the moment, but I've been there, and I know for a fact that the arrival of the weekend does nothing to alleviate the pain in either situation.

Today it's a beautiful Saturday in Maine but I'm in a bad mood anyway. Sue me. And stop telling me to "Have a great weekend!"
