Some days felt longer than other days. some days felt like two whole days. unfortunately those days were never weekend days. our saturdays and sundays passed in half the time of a normal workday. in other words, some weeks it felt like we worked ten straight days and had only one day off.

More From Joshua Ferris

How many sundays - how many hundreds of sundays like this - lay ahead of me? “quiet, peaceful, and lonely,” i said aloud to myself. on sundays, i didn't wind my spring.
Lonely Spring Sunday
Me and my sisters were taught that if our eyes worked and our legs worked, we were beautiful. we had so many kids in our family that if we all got in front of the mirror and were ashamed of browns and golds and yellows and whites, and we believed what society told us - that the darker people were less attractive and the lighter ones were prettier - we would have had sibling murders. my family, being half-rural and half-military, just came from a different place.

Sometimes we don't need words. rather, it's words that need us. if we were no longer here, words would lose their whole function. they would end up as words that are never spoken, and words that aren't spoken are no longer words. - (where i'm likely to find it)
Needs Sometimes Function
In winter i go skiing on saturdays and sundays when the slopes are quieter due to changeover day for tourists, and in summer i hike up into the mountains at sunset, just as the village is settling down to dinner.
Summer Sunset Sunday
My recipe for bliss on a friday night consists of a 'new york times' crossword puzzle and a new episode of 'homicide;' saturdays and sundays are oriented around walks in the woods with the dog, human companion in tow some of the time but not always.
Friday Dog New York
Unfortunately, once i did learn to smoke, i couldn't stop. i escalated to two packs a day very quickly, and stayed that way for about ten years. when i decided to stop, i adopted the method that my father had used when he quit. he would carry a cigarette in his shirt pocket, and every time he felt like smoking, he would pull out the cigarette and confront it: "who stronger? you? me?" always the answer was the same: "i stronger." back the cigarette would go, until the next craving. it worked for him, and it worked for me.
