Night drinkers

Beachy730

Anyone around tonight?  I'm semi-enjoying a hard cider, gearing myself to go across the street to help my friend prepare for her parent's coming.  I've had much better hard ciders, but I found this one on base and figured I'd try it. 

And I got a phone call from H today, and I could actually hear and understand him, which was awesome. 

So what's everyone else up to?

Work, with idiots....and almost at 500!

I am around - not really doing much of anything.  I am so exciting.  I did get 3 bottles of wine at work today, so I guess that made it worth it to go!

I'm around, but not doing much. I finished cleaning the house, so I don't have much to do now. I'm trying to lose weight, so it's a sober night for me. :-/

Drinking wine : )

I am waiting for the Real World/Road Rules Challenge to come on because I'm a dork and I like watching those people get drunk and fight with eachother.

Hi!  I'm here.  I'm watching SVU, drinking beer and knitting.  I am NOT studying for the bar like I should be.

That sounds like a good day to me!

Beachy730

Yeah I'm trying to lose weight too Birdie.  I'm eating more salads and not giving up the drinking.

KJB what did you get the wine for?

Amber, what do you mean almost at 500?

I can't bring myself to drink on "school nights." If I do, I sleep like crap.

Birdie1483

LVB and KentuckyKate are coming over tomorrow night and we'll be drinking a lot then. Then I"ll be drinking Friday (just because) and Saturday for a wedding. I can never just have one drink, so I figure I should ration my alcohol intake.

I had lost 9 pounds - yep, gained that all back on the cruise.  Fantastic.

2.  wine was bday gitfs from my lovely lady friends at work.  They know me so well

3.  I think Amber means post count.

Ooh Andy I watched a few epsidoes of SVU earlier.  They always have the marathons on during football on Sundays, so I started DVRing the ones I don't recognize so I can watch them when nothing else is on.

The RW/RR Challenges used to be one of my favorite shows to watch.  Then I got sick of it because it was always the same people on it.

amber2123

500 posts...I know it's trivial, but still.

Spent 13 hours at school today, and did a 2 hours presentation. I'm currently enjoying my second coors light and watching modern family! 

happy times.

Birdie1483

I still watch the Challenges.

No Amber everyone gets excited about 500.  Nobody wants the Newbie badge.  You seem to have gotten there really quick though.  I feel like it took me forever to get to bronze.

kellyjellybelly

ha!  cute.  right next to it was an add for celebrity cruises - I WANNA GO BACK.  reality sucks.  I should have listened to my mother and married for money :P

amber2123

I feel like I've changed sense I started posting.  Is everyone like that?

Beachy730

What do you mean changed?  Like your opinion on things? 

amber2123

No, like the way I come across.  When I first started I think I came across to strong and wanted people to like me.  Now I'm like, <meh> whatever.

Beachy730

I don't really remember you trying to hard, but I don't have the best knot memory. 

ootmother2

yes, that would be me.

Great for the phone call!

Ha!  I keep looking up our cruise and wanting to book, but I have to wait a little bit.  I'm still trying to talk people into coming with us on it too.  I can't wait to go, even if it is to Alaska and I wll probably freeze.

Birdie1483

I had to realize that my sarcasm wasn't always translating into the written word properly. I still have cringe worthy moments when I KUI.

kellyjellybelly

Hey OOT your screenshot was from exactly one year ago!

kellyjellybelly

I'll come!  H has no vacation time, so I'll leave him behind  Don't worry, I'll make new friends and not be a 3rd wheel.

Birdie1483

So I'm kind of bummed because for SOME reason, there are only like 2-3 cruises going on the week of our intended Honeymoon that we would actually be able to catch. There are a TON for the next week, but not many for our week. I don't know why. I'm wondering if Veteran's Day has something to do with it? We would ideally like the cruise to depart on Monday, but most want to depart on Saturday or Sunday.

Haha I love how many drinkers we have on here.  I may be drinking alone physically, but mentally I'm not since I'm drinking with at least some of you. 

Thanks, yeah the phone call actually scared the crap out of me because it was at 7:30 in the morning and woke me up.  Our time difference is annoying.  I actually hit ignore the first time because I thought maybe the work phones were still forwarded to me, and then when it rang again I realized it must be him.

Birdie1483

Am I a dork for remembering it was two years ago tonight we brought Oz home?

Beachy730

Hell yeah KJB come with us! 

Birdie, I would seriously think about going on one the following week.  Most people I've talked to who left right after the wedding hated it and wished they would have waited a week.  I was actually kind of relieved to have the time to visit with OOT guests more and do some running around after.
