Query:

So I'm sitting on the couch with the husband watching TV. This is not a regular eventing activity for us as a couple, husband has lots on the go, music practice, electronics hobby and a recent collaboration we've been working on usually keeps our evenings running on separate tracks with my time being used for daily decompression, working on the odd project, blogging, or watching TV by myself. (this is actually great, I never have to fight for the remote) So Monday night and Heroes is almost like a date night for us.

Getting back to what I started out with. We're watching TV and this beer commercial comes on. I've seen it before, and dismissed it but something about the ad kind of struck me tonight. Well a joke the husband made about the punch line which is something like "Take the best day of your life and put it in your mouth" Husband laughs and makes his joke and I started to think about what constitutes the best day of your life.

So I'm asking you:
Is the best day of your life the one where everything, absolutely everything was perfect, from start to finish

or

is the best day of your life the day when some major milestone happens: the day you graduated highschool/college/Uni, the day you met the person you want to spend the rest of your life with, the day you get married, the day your child is born?

How would you quantify the best day of your life?
