  1. A month of Sundays would be 28 to 31 weeks long. A long time by any measure.

    This expression, which would literally mean thirty weeks, has been used hyperbolically since it was first recorded in 1832. One writer suggests it originally connoted a long  dreary time, since games and other kinds of amusement used to be forbidden on Sunday. http://www.answers.com/topic/a-month-of-...
