Note: This is a new idea. We the management, as in me, may only try this once or it may become a regular feature. It’s kinda hard to tell.
Being as things have been a craps shoot in general around the site, let alone the so-called regular features, we’ll just see what happens. Okay? Alright…
The premise of “Answer Me a Question” is simple: Ask a question at the start of the day, answer it by the end (or within a quick enough posting schedule).
All Wednesday I felt like it was Thursday. On multiple occasions I started to make semi-important decision (important as in the day-to-day sense, but not in the old-man-looking-back-I-rue-the-day-that-I-did-that sense) based on that opinion. An equal number of times, I was corrected by people who knew better.
This is all part of a future-tense existence when working at a paper. The readers’ today is our tomorrow. Our today is their yesterday. This concept can twist the brain.
When asked what day it is, I feel compelled to give multiple answers. For example if it was Sept. 28, I would say, “It’s September 28, working on Sept. 29).
So, today’s question: If I felt like Wednesday was Thursday all day, what day will it feel like on Thursday.
Today’s answer: To come next week, or if you're reading this after Monday, in the post that sits on top of this one.
