Celebrate Self Day!

I was reading an old issue of Self magazine today and came across a neat little project they completed. They encouraged all of their readers to take a "self day" and spend 24 hours just doing nice things for themselves. I enjoyed reading letters from those who had called into work and chilled out. Some of the things readers did were: read books, watch movies in pajamas all day, go to the beach, clean house, go hiking, or go to the spa.

It made me think what I would do on my 'self day'. Oddly enough I've had a hard time considering doing anything but getting more work done. But if push came to shove, I would do the following. Sleep in late. Grab my buddy Marcia and make her fight with me (kickboxing) for at least 12 rounds. Then I'd shower and go to the fanciest spa in town for a facial, manicure and pedicure. I'd have lunch with some girlfriends and gossip for as long as possible. I think I'd come home and take a nap afterward. During my dream 'self day' my closet would only be filled with clothes that I love and I'd throw on something great to wear on a great date with my husband. Asleep by 10:00PM. (I really value sleep, because I rarely get it.)

I loved reading the experiences of those Self Day celebrators. Is it the simple things you'd go for, or extravagance?What would you do? Let us know. If you've already done it....brag, brag, brag. Maybe we'll all be inspired to section a luxurious 24 hours for ourselves as well.
