Chit Chat

Saturday night randomness (long)

Good evening Knotties :]

This is probably the most random post ever...but, I have a lot to talk about.

Please tell me Im not the only one home on a Saturday night. You ladies are hanging out here too, right?! I just got home from hanging out with my best friend. Im a little tipsy from some wine and a few shots of this awesome rum...Rum Chata. It is AMAZING. I could drink the entire bottle in one sitting. I dont drink much, so that would probably be an awful idea. Now I plan on spending the rest of my evening with my kitten watching Law & Order SVU on Netflix...and lurking around on the boards. There is something about Detective Benson that I find incredibly hot...I wish I was a sexy crime fighting detective like she is.

You know, its not unusal for me to be home on a Saturday night. I use to be kind of a party girl and go out a lot, but in the last 3 years (since Ive been with FI), I rarely go out anymore. Id much rather just hang out at home, with a bottle of wine, a good show & my FI. Does that make me lame and old?

I am so happy I got to spend some time with my best friend today. I went over to her boyfriends house, because she practically lives there now. She has an apartment right next to me, but ever since her & BF became serious, she is rarely ever there. I never see her anymore. FI went to sleep early (he works really early on Saturdays & Sundays) so I went to hang out. It was kind of awkward. Her BF is a lot older than us...about 15 years older. We dont agree on a lot of things & dont see eye to eye often, but thats okay. We get along well enough for the sake of my best friend. She is really happy, he treats her really well and because of that, I am happy for her. However, its awkward talking to her about things when he is constantly around. I tried a million different ways to get her alone so we could have some girl talk, but only succeeded for a few minutes. Not nearly enough time. Its pretty obvious that I am going to have to make plans with her while he is not around. Now I kind of see how she felt when I first got into a relationship with FI. Its weird. But, Im starting to see its just how life goes as we get older. Im pretty sure our friendship is strong enough to go thru anything, but now we are just going to have to put in a little more effort than we had before. Growing up kinda sucks. Atleast this part does.

On another note...Netflix has recently added this new show called Hemlock Grove. Its a Netflix original series. FI & I watched the first episode together today & Im surprised to say that I think its really interesting & I enjoy it. I found myself glued to the tv & now Im finding myself wanting to watch the next episode. But, I wont. I will wait until FI is available to watch it also. He seems to like it too. Check it out if you are looking for something to watch!

& my final thought for the night...why have I never listened to Mumford & Sons before now?! I listen to all different music, but I tend to gravitate to hip-hop & R&B more than most genres. However, I have a "sleep station" on my Pandora & a bunch of Mumford songs play on it. They are awesome. My favorite song in particular is White Blank Page. I know I am incredibly late on discovering them, but I now regret waiting so long. Better late than never!

Anybody else have a million thoughts running through their head and want to talk about it?! Im here, and probably will be for awhile because I am way too cool to go out Tongue Out

  • Sierra, dear, you sound like a girl after my own heart! I turned 21 while i was with FI so I never did the party thing. But its actually his b-day today, we are watching Batman (but we actually also watch SVU) and drinking together! 

    On the note of your BFFL and her BF and their age diffrence, I am 22 and FI is 36 today. It just takes time getting used to everyones personalities but as long as she is happy its good right?

    As for missing your BFFL, I miss mine too because she lives 4 hrs away and I am so excited that in June she is moving back to Western Washington so we can do all sorts of wedding stuff together! (she is my MOH)

    Oh I agree! I have NO problem with him being older than us. I actually think its a good thing for her. She expects a lot out of her boyfriends, and has been thru the ringer with a lot of immature guys. I am glad she has somebody who knows how to treat a women with respect and be mature enough to handle a serious relationship. She is really happy. & he really is great for her. So, Im extremely happy for her.

  • Ohhhh shiiiiiiit, I just remembered I told my mom I would help her with work early in the morning. She has to clean out one of the rental units that belongs to the company she works for. She asked for my help in exchange for breakfast at either Eat n Park or Bob Evans and a manicure. How could I say no? She really knows how to convince me.

    So, I guess Im going to bed. Night!

  • Don't worry Sierra, I don't do anything fun on Saturday evenings either.  It mostly consists of Homework, church and then a TV show H.  I'm a boring, old, married hag.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Saturday night randomness (long) : Rum Chata is my favorite alcohol of all time. I make chocolate milkshakes and spike them with it. I've even seen a french toast recipe floating around that incorporates Rum Chata, mmmm.

    Ohhh man, I need to make some milkshakes with that stuff. There are so many possibilities. I have never tried Rum Chata prior to tonight, but it is def on my top 5 favorites now.
