Mondays

So research suggests that you're more likely to maintain a routine if you start it on a Monday.  Something about the start of the week and the start of a routine aligning is psychologically significant.

Right now, I think Mondays have too much pressure for me because of that.  It used to be that Thursdays were hard because it would be another 3 days until derby and I didn't really have much social involvement other than derby.  Weekends kind of sucked because I had all these expectations about what I should do with them that I failed to meet.

Mondays, it seems, have taken the place of Thursdays.  I wake up on Mondays and just want to avoid the world.  Avoid doing anything important or unimportant lest it become a routine.  I'm also terrified of starting something on a Monday because then if I don't follow through with it, I can't use the fact that I didn't start it on a Monday as an excuse.

So now I'm sitting here, writing this (possibly not even in my own voice because I've spent the past hour reading someone else's writing), and trying to figure out how to get out of a Monday funk.

Thoughts?  Suggestions?
