What's it like to have a weekend?

Because I've never had cause to work a day in my life, in turn, never been able to share peoples enthusiasm for the weekend. Do workers really endure the entire week, simply to enjoy their precious time off? For me, everyday just melds together, as I loll about drinking gin and scoffing custard tarts. I would ask my servants, but I never allow them weekends, so they're as much in the dark as I am.
