It's a Simple Matter of Logic

Since, on Monday, we celebrated the greatest wrong turn in recorded history, we did not have class. BU has an inexplicable policy where, because we can’t bear to lose a Monday schedule, some other poor day gets sacrificed and we replace that poor day’s schedule with a Monday schedule. This year, that honor fell on poor Tuesday, so, yesterday, which was a Tuesday, became a Monday. Thus, although yesterday was technically Tuesday, Tuesday never happened. Today, normalcy resumes and we are on a Wednesday. Therefore, because Wednesday followed Monday, those of us whose Monday and Wednesday schedules are identical have two days in a row, a la Groundhog Day, that are exactly the same in every way, shape, and form.

Bottom Line? I have no idea what today is, no clue what tomorrow will bring, and, given the déjà vu, no assurance that the weekend will ever come. All I know is, I really need a drink.
