GO OUTSIDE! Don't waste your time on your computer being on Yahoo Answers, that's for sure! It depends on your age, what you do, etc...
but I'd say go watch some of the new movies, ones that you talk about with your friends...go to a pool, because its hot...
Maybe go a sports game or something...or visit an attraction...
any theme parks around your place?
That's all I can think of...

For me, the best weekend would involve massive amounts of sleep and doing nothing. It wouldn't be productive at all, and some may call that a "waste" but that would seem extremely satisfying to me.

1. Stay away from Y! Answers till Monday : )
2. Today, call a friend you haven't called for more than one year.
3. Arrange with him or her to go back on Saturday to a place you used to go to hang out, but haven't been to in a long time.
4. On Sunday, you and this person host a BBQ at either of your homes for all the people in your mutual 'circle' - this will also tend to be friends you've lost touch with somehow.
On Monday you'll go to work with a smile on your face.

Better pick one.
Full, satisfying or productive.
All three are less likely.
