- Head down to the Twin Cities' first Ikea store and stand in line the with thousands of other rubes waiting to buy mid-priced Scandinavian furniture. It's as big as 10 Wal-Mart stores, but heads-up, it has way less NASCAR junk.
- Plug in and jam with aging Brit rocker Graham Parker on the rooftop of Brit's. I haven't heard anything he's done lately, but I used to really dig him. He's either as good as he ever was or he's old and kind of sad.
- Skip out of work and go home and watch OLN's replay of Frenchman Richard Virenque turning some serious cranks as he kicks everyone else's ass on the first mountainous stage of the Tour. Then watch it again on the replay-replay. Then watch the primetime coverage. Then maybe the primetime replay. OK, that'll probably be enough.
- Head downtown and try and find a parking place amongst the bajillions of Lindsey Whalen fans showing up to watch her play our local WNBA team (yes, we still have one). It's still good we didn't mortgage the future of the franchise to get her in the draft, right?
- Go watch Team Yep play softball. That'd probably be my 2nd or 3rd choice, too, so don't feel bad about going with something else.
