#TGIF #FridayFeeling #FridayNight #FridayFunday
Today is Friday, for which hashtags express one fairly clear emotion. That is if “Yippee!”can be considered an emotion.
There is plenty to look forward to on this particular day of the week. Whether it’s two days and nights of socializing, or catching up on household chores, or just kicking back and relaxing, after a full work week it’s all going to be good.
Friday. The day of the night when the weekend begins. We can meet for drinks after work and extend it into the wee hours since there is no alarm the next morning, the starting gun for the typical daily rat race. The break is at hand, yet we can look ahead to two days off from the grind; those 48 precious hours are still there for us.
I enjoy working. I love the environment and the people who share it with me. I like what I do and find it satisfying. But, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t take great delight in the weekend. Beginning Friday.
I love my Friday date night with hubby. We have set the mood for relaxing, with a moratorium on cooking supper, instead bringing in takeout pizza. We turn off the television, sip some wine and chat about events that have passed and those ahead of us. It’s the perfect lead in to Saturday and Sunday, as we look ahead to sleeping in, chilling with family and friends, completing tasks if we want, pursuing entertaining distractions and enjoying a little more control over the ‘where we will go’ and the ‘when we will get there’.
So yes, when the work week calendar hits Friday, it just feels good to be alive. It’s anticipation and realization. Even though the weekend isn’t all relaxation for the majority of adults, it’s a change and Friday is the prelude. It’s the promise of a cup of tea and a good read, of having that time for a quiet walk in nature or a sit down with friends.
Is it any wonder that across the board on social media sites, this day is the focus of celebration. It’s exalted, adored and enjoyed. Besides the hashtags to promote the Friday vibe, endless memes have been created praising this particular day of the week, essentially as it heralds the time for the party to start. While sharing some of the best is common, it can also be fun to create your own, just because you want to. Or perhaps you have your own witty or unique thought to share.
There are many online meme generators created specifically for this purpose. The one above was done with iPHOTOS.com Image #408845 and memebetter.com Here are a few examples you might want to try:
If none of the photos offered with these programs are quite what you’re looking for, or you want to be sure that you are covered for copyright issues, you can, as I did, upload one of your choice. There are great online resources for images that provide many options. If photographs are your preference, iPHOTOS.com has over five million images that offer quality and diversity. When it comes to clipart iCLIPART.com and Clipart.com each have extensive inventories.
