Saturdays!

I've always thought that Saturday was my favorite day of the week. It was the day you could sleep a little longer, a day off, following a long school week. It was the day you went on special trips, shopped for all those special items, went to the movies, and then got to sit up late. It was a day to make pizza and invite your friends and family to share. I always liked Saturdays.
Still do. Except now I work on Saturday, so I can't sleep late. The price of gas has skyrocketed so I've stopped going on all those special trips. With the economy the way it is...I have to watch my spending, so I really evaluate purchases of "special items". Yes I still go to the movies...but only about 2 or 3 a year. Most of the movies now are not what I'd pay to see. And I do stay up later on Saturday nights...although now I find myself napping in my recliner throughout the evening.
That leaves pizza. I have to admit I don't make pizza anymore...just pick up the phone and order it. Come to think of it...today's Saturday. And I always liked Saturdays.
Later,
Magnolia
