Something about this coming week just makes us feel relaxed. Maybe it's because April 15 has come and gone, and there's nothing left to do about our taxes until next year (or until we get audited, whichever comes first). Maybe it's because all the stress in our lives has compounded to an impossible level and imploded, and we just don't care anymore. Or maybe it's because this week has so many lovely free events, we've reached a blissful level of calm.
Regardless of where this air of relaxation is coming from, we're going to embrace it, and you ought to as well. Kick off your shoes, pour yourself a glass of something with a 13.5% or greater alcohol content, and read on for a number of soothingly free events to enjoy this week.
