I haven't ridden my bike in a while now. I probably should, but I am not planning to do that.
Sitting anywhere and reading a book sounds good to me, but I am not planning on doing that.

This is a possibility, but it is not what I am planning to do.

Cobalt Kid is correct. I plan on taking the ferry out to Georges Island in Boston Harbor. There is a fort on the island that dates back to the Civil War.

That sounds pretty awesome! I like going on boat rides during nice weather too--something I never think to do but when I do go, I have a great time.
From the time I was a teenager before finally getting my current job, I had a bunch of jobs in between. Most of them were pretty awful. Which of the following was a job I did not have:
(1) Moving furniture (2) Roofing (3) Clerk at CVS (4) Accountant (5) Demolition at Construction Sites (6) Teaching Assistant (7) Bouncer at a bar (8) Bartender

When I graduated college and was in Grad School, I had a partime job that was okay but didn't really rake in the money. So I took a second job as a bouncer at my favorite bar. It paid crap, and I got to see just how boring and annoying it is to be in the bar really late, totally sober when everyone else is partying. *However*, I made some great friends (more so than any other job before or since) and got to go to some awesome parties; plus I got to see how bar staff's take care of the staff of other bars when you visit, so I've been kind of like a VIP in 2 or 3 bars in Hamden/New Haven, CT ever since. So that was cool. When I got my current job in reinsurance, I held onto the bouncer gig for about 7 more months (Friday nights only) but by then I was passing out by 2:00 am without alcohol and adrenaline to fuel me (and a bouncer's shift ends really around 5:00 am).
In between my sophmore and junior years of college, I worked at constructions sites doing demolition for a summer. It wasn’t the worst job I ever had but it was close. Partially because of how back-breaking and dangerous it was and how little anyone else cared about if anyone got hurt. I worked with 4 other college kids doing it…I was in great shape and it was a good fit at the time. I got paid under the table with no insurance so now I’m horrified to think that if I’d gotten hurt it could have been ugly. It was a great experience (my father has been a blue collar guy his whole life and always made me promise to never work a blue collar/trades job) but I’m glad I don’t have to do that ever again.
