wishing my life away

Most days I hope at least once during that day for:
1) the weekend to come faster
2) my patients not to show up
3) to be abducted by aliens away from my workplace

The other day my colleague and I were standing at the back door getting ready to leave on a Thursday and she commented that the next day was Friday and it's almost the weekend. I felt wistful and commented that I wish we didn't wish our lives away waiting for the next weekend to come around. I'm tired of wishing my life away. Does that mean I should change practices, careers, locations? I don't know. Maybe I just need to change my attitude.
