I think the Bellas Artes museum is free on sundays. There are plenty of museums, zoo, art shows. You can visit el Chopo, they have a punk,goth,freah flea market on sundays plus live concerts. Museo del Estanquillo is a new museum showing great graphic work, I might be able to get you tickets for that.
There are a ton of things you can do.

visit teotihuacán

oh yeah, there's a shuttle bus that will take you to teotihuacan, can't miss that. There's also a tourist bus that will give you a tour of the city, you can take it downtown

is it worth it to head out to the pyramid? any other good street markets?
and the sunday concert sounds fun too

Yeah, what Daro said. There's some good museums in mexico.
Teotihuacan is also a good choice. It's boring for me coz I've been there a few times now and it's my country after all, but for a foreigner it might be a good choice to see something like this coz you ain't finding something similar back at home.
There's tons of street markets. I just went a couple of months ago to Texcoco which is near Mexico city and went to 2 street markets and grabbed 5 Von Dutch hats for 5 bucks each.

And for the love of god. Eat some Tacos!!! trompo (pork) and milanesa (beef with onion and cilantro)
and DON'T eat ice cream, fruit and things like that on the street. Local people can handle them but foreigners can get the "runs"
