| If you're joining up this week, please leave a comment and link back...I'd love to have some cawfee with you this morning! |
The questions:
- I set a friend up on a date this week...do you have any single friends that you want to set up?
- Were you ever set up? Tell me the story.
- Over drink at Ladies' Night the other night, I was shocked (and I'm no prude) at how many of the women recently drank until they puked. When was the last time you overdid it?
- What did you do this weekend?
- Is there one piece of furniture/home decor that has made it through toddlerhood even though you never thought it would in a million years? Take a picture of it if you can.
- Are you a snow lover? Or a snow hater?
- We have had some rather colorful language flying around our house. Are there any words that you're just freaking sick of?
The answers:
- I set a friend up on a date this week...do you have any single friends that you want to set up? This was completely random. We were out at Mom's Night and one of the ladies mentioned a girlfriend of hers that was having trouble finding a guy without baggage. Once you get into your 30's, you're dealing with kids and divorce and all sorts of things. Anyway, I mentioned a guy friend of mine who was in the same boat. We got to texting and they had their first date last night. Other than that, I don't have anyone. (and if you know this guy in real life, which some of you do, PLEASE don't mention this...I don't want to jinx it and you all know that he turns and runs when people are up his ass about his life...don't ruin this)
- Were you ever set up? Tell me the story. I can't really remember. I'm sure I was, but it never worked out. It was always awkward and led me to think "is this what my friends really think of me?" The one time my Nana set me up with her Physical Therapist and it was awkward...she was shocked that I wasn't instantly in love with him.
- Over drink at Ladies' Night the other night, I was shocked (and I'm no prude) at how many of the women recently drank until they puked. When was the last time you overdid it? I can't even remember. I'm so scared to do that because I will.not.be.able.to.function. There is no way it's worth it. Granted, it was two of the girls' birthday, but still...I just can't do it. I never know what I'm in for in the middle of the night and these two don't give me a break...ever. Puking will not happen any time soon (or ever again for that matter...I hate puking).
- What did you do this weekend? We were supposed to have Tae Kwon Do and then go to Philly to see family, but that all fell through. The weather was a factor, but Hailey fever ended up being an even more decisive factor. We couldn't control it without meds and we've tried (and failed) traveling with sick Crazies. It's never worth it and it just makes everything worse. Plus, we were going to see Cousin's son and I didn't want to expose him to anything either. I just hope it's a passing thing. They were bummed about Tae Kwon Do, but got over it because it was snowing. Then it was interesting trying to explain why you couldn't play in snow covered with ice and why snow angels were just about impossible. It's been an interesting weekend.
- Is there one piece of furniture/home decor that has made it
through toddlerhood even though you never thought it would in a million
years? These lamps. They are on either side of our couch in the living room and make a really awesome "jingly" noise when touched. They're made from capiz shells strung together with this lovely invisible thread. I am floored that they still exist in my house and I love them so so so much.
- Are you a snow lover? Or a snow hater? Hater...as I tried to go inside early yesterday, Husband was laughing at me b/c I've mentioned trying skiing this year. He knows I'm going to hate it and I think he's right. I know...I should get out there, but I just can't get over my love of warmth.
- We have had some rather colorful language flying around our house. Are there any words that you're just freaking sick of? Butt, poop, stupid, and dammit (that one is Hailey's and I don't think she'll be letting it loose any time soon). Matt is currently receiving automatic time-outs for his words...I'm freaking sick of it.

The mere thought of getting drunk enough to puke makes me want to puke. Oy. Does that make me the lamest twenty-something you've ever known?
I miss the idea of drinking what I wanted...staying out...having fun...but not the ramifications.
Like you said, I just can't risk something coming up in the middle of the night / Heaven forbid someone had to go to the hospital. Would they call the cops on you right there???
And, I don't have a backup plan in the morning. It's all me getting the girls up / feeding them / everything...and at the crack of dawn, too. Some days it's hard enough on a regular-night's sleep...don't need a splitting headache on top of it.
Sadly.
;)
Sorry you guys had to miss Tae Kwon Do! Hope Miss Hailey is better soon!
The last time I puked was my birthday celebration in May. I figure it was also right around the time I conceived. Good timing.
You know I went out with some friends from high school a year or so ago and I wasn't drinking since I drove there myself and my youngest was getting up at night. All of them were like, well my youngest is younger than yours and we are drinnkkkiinnggg! (To get drunk) I just didn't get it. I'd rather get some sleep than none and be able to function the next day.
i HATE puking. i will do anything to avoid it!!!
As much as I love to have a good time and have my fair share of adult beverages, there's no way I'd drink myself till puking now that I have kids. The next morning would be a nightmare!
Paul and I were set up on a blind date and well...you know how that turned out! :-)
Weekend here was great! Sorry yours fell through!
Those lamps look awesome! Amazed they are still in tact though!
Mean and stupid are Jacob's 2 favorite words right now. Adam's is "I don't yike it" and "that's ucky!" Tired of it all!
No way to drinking like that, ever! Shoot, I barely drink maybe a glass every few months. Yep, I'm lame.
Why is their word "poop" so fascinating? We have entered tattling which is far worse than words.
Just staying up past my typical bedtime makes me too tired in the mornings; not adding stupid-drunk to that anytime soon. Also can't waste a day considering we're at home only 2 of them a week.
Snow-hater. Yeah, it's pretty but that also means it's cold.
Never been set up. Halfway set up a friend once - that didn't work out in the end.
We have an open wine rack that I have yet to figure out why they girls just show no interest in the pretty and super breakable wine glasses (that or we must have mastered the death stare)
She hasn't repeated it but over the weekend Audrey yelled "holy cap!" Trying to figure out where she picked that gem up. Must stop watching sports if they're in hearing vicinity.
I'm well past the 'drink till you puke' phase as well, and didn't do it very often in college either.
I was set-up once, and it was a disaster. I was plotting where the nearest pay phone was to his apartment (I only had a bag phone then and wasn't driving) and was ready to walk home.
You should try skiing, it's so much fun!! We just got back Sunday from a week in Park City, UT and had a great time. My four year old skied with us most of the time too, other than one half-day lesson. Of course we live in Alabama so snow is a novelty for us.
