What day is it?

You can use the `datetime` module in Python to get the current date. Here's a simple example:

```python
import datetime

def get_current_date():
    """
    Returns the current date.
    """
    current_date = datetime.date.today()
    return current_date

# Example usage:
current_date = get_current_date()
print(current_date)
```

This will print the current date in the format `YYYY-MM-DD`.

If you want to get the current day of the week, you can use the `strftime` method:

```python
import datetime

def get_current_day_of_week():
    """
    Returns the current day of the week.
    """
    current_date = datetime.date.today()
    return current_date.strftime("%A")

# Example usage:
current_day_of_week = get_current_day_of_week()
print(current_day_of_week)
```

This will print the current day of the week (e.g., Monday, Tuesday, etc.).

Note: The `strftime` method uses the following format codes:

- `%A`: Full weekday name
- `%a`: Abbreviated weekday name
- `%B`: Full month name
- `%b`: Abbreviated month name
- `%Y`: Four-digit year
- `%m`: Two-digit month
- `%d`: Two-digit day of the month
- `%H`: 24-hour clock hour
- `%I`: 12-hour clock hour
- `%M`: Minute
- `%S`: Second
