What does the shape of YOUR week look like?
I am referring to the ambiguous, entirely mentally constructed shape that may have been created by you to represent what a week's shape looks like in your mind. For me, Monday's are in the bottom semi-right corner... sort of where 5 o'clock is on a clock. From there, Tuesday through Thursday roll counter-clockwise up until roughly the noon position or so. Friday kind of rolls over to about 10:45 followed by Saturday(the largest of the days), which rolls down to about 7:15 or so. This leaves only Sunday to complete the rotation back to the beginning of Monday. For me, these are all somewhat loose estimations as the mental construct I am detailing is both a bit foggy in my perception and somewhat fluid in its construction in the first place. I think the days themselves tend to be somewhat larger the closer I am to them in time. I am not sure how much they change in size, what causes them to shrink or expand(other than proximity) and what colors might be associated with them, if any. This has all been a fairly deep part of my recollection, however, as I think I have seen it this way for as long as I can remember understanding the format of the week. I think I've even drawn it out before as I have had a couple conversations about it over the years. It definitely doesn't translate as well to paper as I would like but such is the medium of art in the first place. Anyway... I find the concept of a week's shape interesting... and hopefully my description of my own representation is at least a little entertaining or useful.
