Girl Friday

Thank you all for the nice comments on my last entry. What can I say, I've had some great, uh, "material" to draw from.

It's Friday, everybody! My favorite day! The last day of work before two (or sometimes three!!!) days of doing nothing! In fact, I've made plans to spend time perfecting this whole zen exercise thing I do. I call it, "Lying on the couch, watching TV horizontally." It brings me much inner peace.

Friday nights, however, make me a little melancholy. You see, *sigh* I've been reminiscing about my friends back in Minneapolis. What times we had! I remember in my golden youth, when I had endless energy for drinking and rubbing up against hot gay men, followed by some greasy breakfast at 4:00 AM in a diner I'd never eat in sober. Nowadays it's a real party if we make it to dinner AND a movie, with another couple no less! Maybe I'm like a superhero and I draw my strength from hot gay men. I'm like, Super Hag, or something. My weakness is really strong cocktails served by shirtless bartenders who tend to ignore me.

Tonight, however, is Movie Night with The Chicas. Though I'm pretty sure it's not going to be set in a deafening club, and I'm almost certain I'm not going to be served gray sausages wrapped in bacon at the end of it (how I wish, though), we are definitely going to have so so so much fun. I'm bringing tonight's featured entertainment, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, and you KNOW we are going to eviscerate this film! Mystery Science Theater 3000 has nothing on one drunk Kim!

Enjoy your weekend, everybody, and don't forget about that zen exercise I told you about. Really, it works wonders!

If you would like I can have Pabel serve us watermelon martinis with his shirt off tonight. Yeah, I threw up a little when I thought of that too!

I shed a tear remembering the sweaty shirtless women-ignoring bartenders of my misspent youth--thanks for the college flashback.

Yeah I know what you mean. Tonight I will be celebrating the weekend at a baseball game, only to wake up at 6:30 Saturday for a work event followed by a scrapbooking party followed by teaching a music lesson and getting home at 9 PM. What was I thinking?

I remember those days (also in Minneapolis, probably at the same bars) so fondly. Now an exciting night is dinner out and maybe a stop at the grocery store. We don't even go to movies.
