See the Golden Gate Bridge

Drive across it from San Francisco on a clear January night about 10pm and park in the park on the other side. Stand at the rock wall and see Orion blazing overhead and the lights of the city and the Bay Bridge across the water. If you're with someone you love, give them a hug. If you're not, picture them there with you and tell them about it some day.

Make a Random Person Happy

Find somebody's wish list on Amazon. Pick an inexpensive item and buy it for them. They'll probably talk about it with their friends for weeks. Next time you're at the grocery store stick a five dollar bill in an envelope under somebody's windshield wiper. Don't stick around to watch, just walk on and whistle a happy tune.

Try a Different Kind of Pizza

Go with the anchovie and jalapeno pie. You know you've always wondered about it. Sausage, onion, and pineapple tastes pretty good too. Just don't try to kiss your wife later. There are literally millions and millions of possible pizza topping combinations. Drop the pepperoni and extra cheese and try a few of them.

Take a Different Route Home From Work Today

Turn left at that light you always turn right at. Ever wondered what was up that hill? Today's a perfect day to find out. You can always blame the traffic for being late getting home. Wave at somebody you don't know while you're at it. Roam my friend. Roam.
