I know what you mean. I am that way as well. Ever since I can remember, as a little kid in school, as a teenager, as a young adult and now as an old adult, there is simply something about a weekend. I don't need to have special plans or a big event (although that's extra nice), but just knowing I have a weekend and a long one at that makes my day (weekend )
I can't wait to retire so my whole life will be a weekend.
