Like if you looked at the week as being a hill, you'd be at the top or "hump" on Wednesday. You're halfway done, so its "hump day"

Hump day is Wednesday. It means it's the middle day of the week (you had 3 days before it, and have 3 days yet to come to the end of the week.). If someone says he's "over the hump" it means he's past the halfway point.

An English language idiom for Wednesday is "hump day", a reference to making it through to the middle of the work week as getting "over the hump". It is also informally referred to as "the peak of the week".

Wednesday. The middle of the work week, thus, over the hump.
