Spending a weekend with Hitler would have been boring in the extreme, although you would have had a greater certainty in coming back alive.
I was in Kashmir last weekend. Went to visit one of my sweaters.
When you're young, you should live out every weekend. Even if you look like a scarecrow, you just gotta go!
Spend some time this weekend on home improvement; improve your attitude toward your family.
I much prefer working with kids whose life could be completely upended by a reading of a book over a weekend. You give them a book to read - they go home and come back a changed person. And that is so much more interesting and exciting.
