Going out to dinner, playing the odd bit of golf (usually badly), theatre and movies, entertaining family and friends (have been known to throw the odd good party or two), gossiping with my life long friend, keeping in touch with family flung far and wide, and dreaming of how I will spend all the money if (and when) I win the Lotto.
