What Do You Call A Great Day

-catch up on a few work-related tasks, if pending, to clear them off my mind
-watch a little TV and read the newspaper; maybe some E-mailing
-go out dining and dancing with my wife

Today (Wednesday) is the first day of my vacation and I almost pulled it off, but I only rode 25 miles, and we couldn't get a babysitter for tonight. Perhaps better luck tomorrow; at least I have planned to do 60 miles.
Thanks for asking. On Saturday, 9/5 the weather was perfect:

-did a 72 mile bike ride out from Kenmore Square to Upton and back
-one hour nap
-walked daughter on Newbury St and through the Pru (Prudential Building shopping mall)
-no work to catch up on
-did some E-mailing, watched a little TV
-went dancing and we got a round of applause for the Disco Hustle
-take out dinner from our favorite deli when we got home
