Woo! Friday!

Swazzle · October 2013

What's up for the weekend, ladies? Mine will be filled with laughs, beer, and midnight orgasm cupcakes.

Today, I'm leaving work early to catch the train to @Brisox81's! I get there around 6 and we're going food shopping for the weekend. @buddysmom80 will get to Bri's by 8 and then the 3 of us are going to pick up @Sakalicious and @CSousa1 at the bus station. @LivLeighton will also be arriving at some point tonight!

Tomorrow, we're going to be pretty lazy until we have to go to a college hockey game tomorrow night.

Sunday, my bus home is fairly early so I can get to the bar to watch the Eagles/Giants game with my cousins. And then food shopping with H and Sunday night shows.

I hope the next 7 hours FLY by!!!

Nothing special tonight, just taking it easy and hydrating, because I have a 10 mile run to do in the morning. Then I'll probably nap, and do some crocheting. I have a hair appt in the late afternoon, then DH and I have been invited to a bonfire by one of my CW (I'm really hoping we become BFFs).

Sunday we have no plans. DH will be studying for a test all weekend, so I'm basically on my own.

katieg520 · October 2013

I took the day off of work today so I can go on a field trip with my daughter. We are going to the Louisiana Arts and Sciences Museum in downtown Baton Rouge. Should be a good time.

If her step mom goes into labor then we get to keep DD all weekend and we'll do Boo at the Zoo tomorrow with her and some friends and their daughter.

If her step mom does not go into labor, then DD goes with her dad this weekend. Then FI and I will go to this super scary haunted house in New Orleans called The Mortuary.

Tomorrow we will be going order FI's wedding band and registering for gifts. Woop!!

[Deleted User] · October 2013

Sounds like everyone is going to have a great weekend!

Today is pretty busy, I knocked out CrossFit early this morning at 6:00 so I'm pretty proud of myself right now. I have an interview at 10:15 with a Dental Office close to my parent's house. Then I'll head over to my parent's place to get the cars packed and get ready to leave for Savannah for my Bachelorette Party!!! Woo Hoo!!! So excited!!!

Tonight we are doing a Pub Crawl where we ride this giant bike and drink beer while someone steers...I forgot what it's called. Tomorrow we will probably go to Tybee Island and shop and explore. That night we are having dinner at Jazz'd, this awesome Tappas restaurant and then it's crazy time.

Sunday we are coming back home and that night I'm going to the Michael Buble concert with FI, his dad, and his Stepmom...I've never been to one of his concerts but FSMIL is obsessed with him.

buddysmom80 · October 2013

Happy Friday everyone! Everyone's weekend looks like fun!

I'm working today until 4:30, then I'll be home by 5pm, get gas, pack my clothes, get my horrible eyebrows waxed and head up to @brisox81's house. I'm spending the weekend with her, @swazzle, @sakalicious, @livleighton, and @csousa1 drinking and watching hockey.

Sunday I'll cry on my way home, then probably finish knitting a baby blanket for my friend who is due with twin girls any day now. Actually I think she's delivering today. Whoops. Okay, I guess an early Christmas gift for them. I also have to do laundry and clean since BF's old roommate and our neighbor are coming over Saturday night for a Xbox/bonfire/drinking g2g.

labro · October 2013

This weekend is all crazy time. For the past month at least @southernpeach89 's bachelorette party has been pretty much consuming my life. We have so many fun surprises and ridiculous things planned that she doesn't even know about yet and I can't wait!!!

KeptInStitches · October 2013

@swazzle, what are midnight orgasm cupcakes?

Today is BF's and my 5-year dating anniversary! No plans tonight because of gaming, and yes, he did offer to cancel. It's just that that's both of our social lives - I get to see my friends there before they really start playing, and it's not fair to rearrange the whole game around us. We're going to celebrate tomorrow, but I don't know what/if he has anything planned.

Sunday we're having lunch with my mom and watching football. BF and I are taking each other on in fantasy this weekend, and I'm projected to win by 30 points. I love him dearly, but I have no friends on Sundays.

CLoGreenEyes · October 2013

@katieg520, have fun at all the haunted stuff for me! That sounds like so much fun!

@southernpeach89 and @lmhollister, have a GREAT time this weekend! Can't wait to hear about all the excitement!

Today is a catch-up day. I'm doing laundry and getting ready for simulation at school (basically I get to take care of a mannequin who can do pretty much anything except get up and walk around, so I have no idea what kinds of issues it's gonna have today, lol). Then just studying and relaxing with the family tonight.

Tomorrow I'm having breakfast with my BFF. It will basically be one long therapy session for the both of us, which I think she needs as much as I do. Thank God for friends. Then in the evening BF and I are making cheeseburger soup and then going to a ghost walking tour in Annapolis, which should be fun.

Sunday I work a 12-hour shift.

[Deleted User] · October 2013

@lmhollister -You're driving me crazy!!! I can't handle surprises like normal people nor do I like knowing there is a surprise coming. I'm going to fall over.

[Deleted User] · October 2013

I can not wake up! I have really struggled this week with being so fatigued... I'm wondering if I haven't adjusted to the shorter days and longer nights yet. anyway, zzzzZZZZZZZzzzzzzzZZZZZZZzzZZZZZZZZZZ!!

this morning I woke up to a 5:30 AM booty call. holla!

...and then I was late to work.

today after work I'm going straight to the grocery store to pick up some stuff and get some dinner. they have a gourmet deli bar where they serve Boar's Head meat and cheese, so I'm going to get some soup and a couple sandwiches from their deli. we have stuff to do at the church tonight, so I have to be there by 7:10 or so. after we're done there, I'm pretty sure I'm crashing face first into bed.

I have laundry and cleaning to do this weekend, plus I'm going to try to make some Paleo energy brownie bite things. big plans. on Sunday we only have one service (normally we do a morning and an evening service), so H and I are planning on going out for a date Sunday evening.

Blackbird230 · October 2013

Happy Friday everyone!

BF comes up tonight, but it's going to be a low key, eat pasta and snuggle kind of night. Tomorrow we're off to the horse rescue with my community service fraternity to help out and get dirty! I'll be able to see the horse I used to lease since she's still there. And then on Sunday, going to visit my parents and decorating Halloween cookies with my best friend.

GoldenPenguin · October 2013

All of my most favorite girls are coming to see me this weekend!! I'm so excited. We're going to have so much fun. Tonight, we'll probably just drink, eat, drink, play CAH, force @sakalicious to watch Mean Girls, drink, etc.

Tomorrow I'm hoping everyone will want to go to the Humane Society - it's Pitapalooza, and there's a dog there that I am trying to convince BF that we NEED. Then we'll all go to my school's hockey game, and then go home and drink and eat and laugh some more.

Sunday I'll cry because everyone has to leave, then I'll probably just lounge around and watch football. This has the makings of one of the best weekends EVARRR.

beanbot2002 · October 2013

Well TK was a bitch and ate my whole post. Fucking hell.

Anyhow, tonight Bean and I are going on our annual Mom/Son date to Washington International. We didn't think we could swing it this year, and then a few days ago my brother's GF gifted us 2 free tickets from her work! YAY! We usually go Saturday night to watch the GP, but this year we're going to watch the Puissance. It's Elijah's goal to compete at Washington in the Puissance class, so he's pretty stoked. We just have to hold out hope that his asthma stays under control tonight. We almost ended up in the hospital yesterdayafter a 2 hour long non-stop wheezing and coughing episode. It was pretty awful.

Tomorrow, Bean will have to finish his major projects for the quarter (6 page research paper, 3 page book report, and visual aspect to go with book report), while I drive out to the barn to take the Princess Pony her blankets. It got cold overnight a few nights ago, and the last think I need is a fuzzy pony in July. I really don't want to body clip her twice this winter.

Sunday will be more working on the projects with Bean and then babysitting my niece.

CASK85 · October 2013

@CocoBellaF - good reason to be late

Today is our department Halloween party. We're carving a Sharknado pumpkin! Later tonight a group of us are going to see Rocky Horror at midnight. I've never been to one of these so I'm excited.

Tomorrow during the day I'm not sure what we're doing. We have to remove our AC units so I think our landlord is coming over. Then we have a Halloween party at night. I'm going as an AHS Coven-inspired sexy scary witch.

Sunday will be a recovery day. And I have to give lab meeting Monday so I'll be working on that and watching football. Go PACK, GO! (sorry I'm not sorry Chicago ladies)

loves2shop4shoes · October 2013

The ILs are visiting this weekend. So we'll probably do lots of Chicago sightseeing and eat lots of nomnoms. And I'm sure I'll see my brother and his new puppy.

KeptInStitches · October 2013

I think today I'll go to Macy's - I could use some new sweaters and it's the one-day sale. Just as an addendum. God I'm boring.

But funny.

I'm gonna get a pumpkin tomorrow and hear ghost stories. Sofreakinexcited.

And I'm going to meet Tiger for lunch and liquids, and see if she will listen to all my feelings.

In other news, I'm wearing my first pair of control top tights of the season and it is glorious.

United!
I feel like the control extends beyond the midsection and into my soul. But that is probably just me.

[Deleted User] · October 2013

it is not just you! I feel infinitely "safer" in my control top tights. it's like a hug... sort of.

Swazzle · October 2013

I would like more info on these life-changing control-top tights, please?

[Deleted User] · October 2013

I normally get mine at Kohl's (especially the Vera Wang collection) or at Target. Kohl's are better quality in my experience. the worst kinds of tights are the ones with the tight band, but no control top... so you get this line at your waist where the tights begin and then a nice ballooned belly-pooch because there's no control top. does that even make sense?? the control top is ESSENTIAL.

It is like a sports bra for your belly, hips, and butt.

Like you were all out there, braless before, and now you are not.

tuarceatha · October 2013

Exactly, @CocoBellaF. Essential. I can't even...

Hummingbird125 · October 2013

@beanbot2002 - So jealous you're going to watch the puissance! I was thinking about planning a mini trip to WIHS this year (I've never been), and I specifically wanted to see that - I've never seen one before, in person, and I'm sure it must be so exciting. If I remember correctly, there's some good equitation stuff tonight too - have fun!!!

I also just need to share last night's dream with you all, because YOU WERE ALL IN MY DREAM. Sorry if that's creepy. Anyways, here it is:

I'm sitting in a big living room on the hugest L-shaped couch I've ever seen, and everyone from NEY is sitting there. I really don't know what anyone here actually looks like, but it was a dream, so you know, I just knew it was everyone from here. Someone, I think Liv, was sitting near me and she called out something to Swazzle and I was like "Oh wait - which one is she? I need to know what she looks like since I'm meeting her next weekend!" but no one would tell me. Everyone was talking really loudly and drinking wine and I was just thinking "THIS IS SO MUCH FUN". I was ignoring texts from my BF because I hadn't explained NEY to him yet and I didn't know how to tell him I was in New Jersey hanging out with dozens of internet friends.

Oh yeah, so, the owner of the house we were all hanging out in was none other than Don Draper/Jon Hamm. And apparently I was his really good friend, like we used to work together or something. And he had two young children, and his wife was a surgeon or something. I knew he had a girlfriend on the side, as he regularly confided in me about both relationships. As our NEY party winded down, I helped him clean up, and he mentioned that he was getting married to his GF soon, and showed me a sample wedding invitation he had made and displayed in his house (he just used his wife's name in it so she wouldn't be suspicious). At seeing this, I was like "What are you doing?! This is messed up! You have children!" I also told him that his wife had called earlier and would be home soon, so he needed to tell his GF not to come over tonight.

He kinda pushed me into another room and closed the door since I was talking loudly about his GF and he didn't want his children to hear. I was upset with him and told him it was time he straightened his life out. He was talking to me with his hands on my shoulders (and he was a lot taller than me and smelled AMAZING). I couldn't stop thinking - "Damn. He is so manly and I'm about to hook up with him." Then, we started making out, hard. He pushed me up against the couch and tried to unbutton my shirt. We made out for like 5 minutes and it was THE HOTTEST THING EVER. I kept pushing his hands away from my buttons and finally pulled back from him and told him "No, I can't. Not now. But I promise you, I WILL bang you before you marry your girlfriend. You can count on it." In this dream I was wearing mom jeans and an ugly yellow shirt, and Don/Jon was in an impeccable suit. I walked out of the room and Don/Jon's daughter made me eat some of the pasta she was supposed to eat. Then I left.

It was pretty much the best dream of my life, and I will never forget saying the word "bang" to Don Draper/John Hamm.

Just needed to get this all out so I could carry on with my life. Carry on.

That makes PERFECT sense because I absolutely HATE when that happens.

Looking into these as I type............

Peaseblossom55 · October 2013

I will be studying all weekend, that is all. Life kinda sucks at the moment, my first exam is this Wednesday so hopefully less than two weeks to go.....

I used to go Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, when I only had to buy a ticket for myself. Now we just go one night.You must make a trip sometime. It's absolutely fantastic. We used to go with the whole barn and wear our team jackets and feel special LOL I've seen the Puissance several times and it is on the edge of your seat, gasping for air, excitement!

No eq classes tonight but maybe during the daytime session. From what I hear from a barnmate, several of the eq rounds were less than ideal. I watched one that they televised on the news, and that kid went around pumping her damn little arms off. Elijah cocked his head to the side and said "Mom, what in the HECK is she doing??" I responded, "Not winning an Eq. class, that's for sure." Come to find out, most of the kids were going around, pumping their lives away, in a perch, and not releasing over the jumps. I'm kind of glad we didn't go to watch the daytime eq classes LOL. Friday night is Military appreciation night so there is usually a caisson exhibition, often times they have a wounded soldier with the Theraputic Riding group and do a demonstration of that. It always brings the crowd to tears. And then there's the Open Jumper final tonight I think.

phira · October 2013

Ugh. Control top. I bought knock-off spanx for a wedding two weeks ago and I am throwing them out. I'd rather everyone see what my figure actually looks like than ever suffer that way again. When I went to the bathroom during the reception, I swear, it was like that episode of Friends where Ross can't get his leather pants back on.

Tonight, I'm working late-ish. I want to get some grading done, and I have an experiment to finish. If I don't finish it tonight, I have to come in tomorrow. Guess what I don't want to do tomorrow? That's right.

Tomorrow, my partner is going to be working. He works a 9-5 job, but he's in charge of this HUGE symposium at his college. It runs until late tonight, and then all morning and afternoon tomorrow. He's so stressed out by it that I'm going to try to clean the entire apartment before he gets home tomorrow--that's the other reason I don't want to have to come in here.

After that, we're grabbing dinner and drinks with one of my best friend's from elementary school, who's doing her internship across the city. I'm so excited for her to finally meet my partner!

Sunday is DO NOTHING day, where we will DO NOTHING, and it will be the best.

cu97tiger · October 2013

@cocobellaf - I wore Vera Wang control top tights yesterday and it was glorious. I want to buy ALL THE PAIRS now.

@jenjenniferf - I will listen to all the feelings and then drown all those feelings in wine. And then we will wander over to Old Navy so that I can buy MOAR CONTROL TOP TIGHTS.

[Deleted User] · October 2013

@cu97tiger - I DID buy all the pairs the other day... whoops. oh well, I wear them every day during the cold weather. they are a NECESSITY.

Woo! Friday!
