Friday was the first day-off I've had without a real purpose in a long time - maybe the first ever! I had such a great time just enjoying myself that I have to share what I did. It may not sound that exciting, but it was amazing to me. I got up early and went out to buy bagels (which I love, but hardly ever eat), then came home and made coffee and watched The Tigger Movie during breakfast. Then I played a little DDR and went out for a haircut, which turned out nicely. Next I dropped off two of my pipes at Pipe World for a tune-up, then went to the mall to just wander around, browsing video games and other stuff. Next I saw The Illusionist at the mall theater (seeing a movie during the day was so cool), so I had popcorn for lunch. After that I went to Toys R Us and checked out every aisle, taking my time - it was great to have no time limit for anything! For no reason at all, I thought it would be cool to build a Star Wars LEGO set, so I bought a fantastic X-Wing fighter (437 pieces!), and came home and spent a couple hours leisurely building it and drinking beer. Building LEGO was incredible - I had forgotten how much fun it is! It's cool to start out not even knowing what section you're working on, just following the well-designed instructions. I was really impressed with the end result, too - it even has landing gear and wings that go into attack position! Finally, I watched Whisper of the Heart (a completely amazing Studio Ghibli anime) and finished the bagels for dinner, and finally went to bed thinking I have three more days off to enjoy!
