This weekend the bf has what residents call "a golden weekend," which means he's not on call nor is he recovering from being on call. "It's so rare we call it golden," he explained (yes, honey, I understand the significance of the color gold).
Come to think of it, that kind of weekend is pretty rare for writers, too. I started to wonder about the last time I'd had a whole weekend when I wasn't frantically churning out queries or answering emails to editors. This week was especially stressful, so I've decided that this weekend is my golden weekend, too. See you Monday (maybe)...

Nice to hear you guys have a rare weekend together! I rarely work a weekend - my time off is too precious!
Good for you! I love that phrase and am now going to make it my own!!
Good for you! I wish I could make myself have a "golden weekend." I have a full-time job so the weekends are my time to oil the query letter wheels and get things moving!! But you've inspired me to take some time to just relax! Hope you enjoyed your time off.
I hope you guys have more golden weekends! There will come a time when you cherish your time off, and working through a weekend will seem like a crazy idea. :))
Thanks, all. We had a fantastic time going out to brunch and watching Pixar movies together. Since he works a lot of weekends, it's easy for me to follow suit without thinking much about it. And Denene, I completely understand, since I have a day job, too. This time I definitely needed a break, though.
