Is There Something Weird About Tuesdays?

Is it my imagination, or has rain or the threat of it been in the forecast for almost every Tuesday since September? Do the higher powers have something against this day? Is that why Tuesday's child is full of woe? Is global warming particularly bad (or good) on Tuesdays? Is it a post-weekend hangover delayed reaction kind of thing? Many questions, no answers.

For the last umptity ump years it has rained on July 14 . Can't talk about other tuesdays but it always rains on this date .

Tuesday's child is full of grace; it's Wednesday's who's woeful ;-)

Actually, it is more probable we will see rain tomorrow, although showers today, and possibly a thunderstorm, are also likely. happening now.

Tuesday is the new Monday.

Tuesdays come out of nowhere and dissolve into Wednesdays quickly. If you blink, you miss them. If you focus, you have a nice evening at a Belgian restaurant with friends. At least that's my experience today.

Pollution helps rain form - I think the recent change to more of an early-mid-week rain is thought to be related to work-week commuting pollution.

Don't forget, Sunday's child is gay. Fortunately true in my case.

I swear that it rains every Tuesday at Noon!!!

Must mean you have a long interesting life ahead of you. Here's one version of the whole rhyme:

Monday's child is fair of face,

Tuesday's child is full of grace,

Wednesday's child is full of woe,

Thursday's child has far to go,

Friday's child works hard for a living,

Saturday's child is loving and giving,

But the child who is born on the Sabbath day

Is bonnie and blithe and good and gay.

Full of grace ...

I like the long, interesting life interpretation. After a trip to New Zealand this spring, I thought it might mean distance!
