What do you usually do on Sunday?

Sunday, to me, is the lonliest day of the week. There's just something in the air, some kind of pressing melancholy, which prevades it. When I'm not working all morning and afternoon (which is usually the case), Sundays usually go like this (especially during the winter months):

Wake up, trudge into the living room, rub my eyes, stand there, trudge some more, stare out the window, twenty minutes, call a friend, no one is home, didn't want to do anything anyway, sulk, yawn, lie on the kitchen floor, open the cupboards with my toes, remember something, wander into a room... pause. Forget why I'm there, blink at myself in the mirror, pick something up up, drop it, leave it there, sigh, sulk, etc.

When I was a kid, my family and I would go to church and then out for ice cream every Sunday. I liked that much better.
