Today is Tuesday
I woke up bright and early this morning to meet with the guy who's going to hang and finish all my drywall upstairs. I've been really excited about this because it's going to look a lot closer to finished once the drywall is up. I'll have real walls!
But this morning he was late so I called him to make sure he was on his way. This is how the conversation went:
Drywall guy: "I told you Tuesday at 8."
Me: "Yeah, Tuesday. Today."
DG: "No tomorrow."
Me: "Today is Tuesday. Yesterday was Monday."
DG: "No tomorrow. I come Tuesday."
So after a while I stopped arguing. Obviously he's confused by the Memorial Day holiday. It's fine if he comes tomorrow. No problem. We of course could not agree that tomorrow was Wednesday, but with any luck he'll show up tomorrow. Unless tomorrow he tries to tell me he already showed up yesterday (Tuesday).
