I can totally relate to the 'missing out' feeling when it comes to Friday nights and Saturday nights, when it's supposedly okay for everyone else to paint the town red.
I'm sure a fair share of people who say they don't miss that and have replaced the same with other activities, are in fact, kidding themselves. I'd rather be honest about it. I don't think I could ever replace my weekend beers with 'hitting the gym' or 'having a nice meal in bed'. And I'm okay with that. Not every experience has a like for like substitute. Fair play to those that don't miss it though. Sober saturday mornings, while nice, are just like any other sober morning, and don't serve as extra compensation, for me personally.
