I set my own schedule, so I don't really distinguish between week and weekend. I'm often working on the weekend and you can find doing weekend-like activities during the week: surfing, mountainbiking, snowboarding, etc. I especially like having the flexibility to do these things during the week as the crowds are usually much smaller on the mountain/trail/lineup.
For me, the weekend is different primarily in that I get less email from clients and partners. This can be an advantage in that it enables me to have more uninterrupted work sessions. Of course, many of my friends do work traditional work weeks, so I often make time on the weekend to do things with them – dinners, dates, hikes, etc. The weekend is also a better time for me to make my international flights, as it minimizes the impact to my availability during the workweek.
