These are really quite terrible.

And one wonders why I let this go periodically.
If you could invent a holiday what would it be?
See my comments on the human tradition of April Fools' Day. I *have* invented holidays. They generally involve costumes, humor, trickery, and fun in general-- which is rather a good description of April Fools' Day, actually.
What constitutes a perfect evening for you?
You assume that a, I count time by discrete solar entities such as "evenings", and b, I have any one definition of "perfect" for how to spend my time.
What is a typical day for you?
Again with that concept of solar time. Or the concept of "typical", which is about as silly as assuming that I have a single notion of perfection.
Let's rephrase, shall we? How do I usually spend my time, and what would I ideally like to do instead?
Nowadays I spend *most* of my time running around after my son, who is developmentally the equivalent of a human 10-year-old, and putting up with incredibly dull meetings of the Continuum, which, sadly, I can no longer blow off like I did when I was younger. Increased status and power came with a price, it seems.
I would *rather* spend my time being free and unfettered, involving myself with the Continuum's business or my son only when I feel like it, and in general behaving rather like I did in my younger days, without the part about being constantly harassed by the rest of the Continuum.
Spending it with a certain human starship captain would certainly bring it much closer to my ideal as well...
