Analyzing sentence

Hi, Hi, Hi!
Happy Friday Everyone!

Could you please tell me whether the sentence below is correct and can be comprehended?

Allan already got tired, however, is still excited for the weekend.

Is it ok to say this without "he" after the second comma?
If it's wrong, how can you reword it, please?

Thanks!Emotion: smile

It doesn't read well, I suggest: Although Allan is tired, he is still excited about the weekend.

Hi Sir Dave!

I just experimented on that.
I thought it would sound idiomatic, but didn't! Emotion: big smile

You can't be excited for an inanimate object. I can be excited for you (meaning something is happening to you which I'm excited about).

There are other phrases that use for the weekend.

I'm going away for the weekend. Somebody is coming for the week. Something for the weekend.
