I also occasionally go during the week, but lately I've such a night-owl, that I arise too late to comfortably get to noon Mass!(that is, after leisurely dressing and a late breakfast.)
Not only do I enjoy participating in the liturgy, I also enjoy the community aspect of attending Mass - seeing long-time acquaintances, etc.
