The Nights When Nothing Sounds Right

Tonight

Is not one of those nights.

Anything and everything sounds right tonight.

Why?

Because it's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday!

It's not really Friday, but it's my Friday. Making tomorrow my Saturday AND my Sunday. Darn those 6 day work weeks. Until the check comes. Then it's more or less "BRING ON THOSE LONG WEEKS! LET'S SEE IT HAPPEN! GIVE ME ALL THE SHIFTS!!" Or something like that.

Tonight is a good night for cat cuddling.

Tonight is a good night for listening to music (but let's face it: every night is a good night for listening to music.)

Tonight is a good night for discovering fun stuff to do when bored.

Tonight is a good night for banana fishing.

Tonight is a good night for going to bed hungry.

Tonight is a good night for going to bed full.

Tonight is a good night for purchasing cats online.

Tonight is a good night to plan out the week ahead. In the normal person sense, not in the "Here's what kind of weather you can expect for the next week."

Tonight is a good night to become Jim Cantore.

Tonight is a good night to plan out fantasy vacations.

Tonight is a good night to kill ALL THE BUGS!

Tonight is a good night for pancakes.

Tonight is a good night for morning to come early.

Can you imagine if that were to happen? Would time be completely altered for the rest of our days? Or would some higher authority be able to change the speed at which the Earth rotates and put the time back to how it should be, etc.etc.etc. You know, with everything we can do and accomplish at this day and age, I wonder if we as humans have the capability to change the rate at which the planets rotate. Or is this just something that happens without us having any influence whatsoever? What would happen if one second were added to each day as more and more people are born because the Earth can't rotate fast enough? One second isn't much, but eventually it could add up to humans being 1 day older than society actually tells them they are (assuming they live to be 100, which obviously not everyone achieves, but whatevs.) The concept of time, beyond just being overwhelmed with death, birth, life, etc. is mindblowing. Who decided the units?! Time is on my side, and really likes to poke me super hard.
