A day results from the rotation of a planet in orbit around some star. The Milky Way is a Galaxy that does not orbit any body bright enough to shine that kind of light upon it.

Our galaxy rotates, however, and one rotation--known as a galactic year--requires about 200 million earth years.

Is the Sun going to line up with the Milky Way?

No. The Milky Way is our galaxy, and our Sun is part of the Milky Way. The Milky Way got its name because it LOOKS like somebody spilled several gallons of milk across the sky. The Milky Way is a spiral-shaped "blob" of many billions of stars; there's nothing to "line up" with. See the link below for a photo of the Milky Way from NASA's "Picture of the Day" archive.
