What are we all doing home on a Saturday night?
:shrug:

I just cracked open a bottle of cheap shitty champagne and I am chocking it down and feeling damn good.

7. There's no excuse for drinking cheap champagne.
Especially the shitty kind.

Not that I'm doing any better.

$6.50 a bottle and it tastes pretty bad and I don't have any orange juice to cut it with.

I am by myself and It gets kind of lonely when you are on your own.

10. Actually, I'm about to head out for the evening.
As of tonight, my college radio show, "The Soul Express," returns to WHUS, 91.7-FM at the University of Connecticut, after my having taken a much-needed break from being on the air. "The Soul Express" now runs from 9:00-midnight EST.

If you don't live locally but would like to hear the show, you can log onto the WHUS webcast by going here and clicking on the link for "Listen":

11. My name says it all
Hubby's working and someone has to take care of the munchkins. Right now, they're watching the Disney channel and I'm a few feet away on the computer.
Besides, there's not exactly anyone beating down my door these days wanting to do anything exciting. What else am I going to do? Read? I'll do that later. TV? Maybe if anything good is on. :shrug:

They were handing them out for free on the way out because they had made up too many and they were good.

18. Well here I sit, gettin' ideas
Ain't nothing but a fool would live like this
Out all night and runnin' wild
Woman sittin' home with a month old child

Dang me, dang me
They oughta take a rope and hang me
High from the highest tree
Woman would you weep for me?

Just sittin' around drinkin' with the rest of the guys
Six rounds bought, and I bought five
Spent the groceries and half the rent
Like fourteen dollars and twenty seven cents.

They say roses are red and violets are purple
Sugar is sweet and so is maple surple
Well I'm the seventh out of seven sons
My pappy was a pistol
I'm a son of a gun.

19. Sometimes it's better to
just kick back on a Saturday night and watch a DVD or read by the fire. This is one of those nights. It's a little cold here in Atlanta. (I know, I know...you guys up north have it much tougher). I ran around all day, buying groceries, to the gym. So I'm going to read Donna Tartt's "The Little Friend", watch "Spellbound" (the spellilng bee movie), and DU a little. I'm a really exciting person!

21. Since you asked....
I'm packing clothes for a one-week trip to Cancun beginning on Monday to interview with my best friend for a job!

Rum and coke to keep the fear of change at bay until it's too late.

Not to put a dampener on anyone else's Saturday night....lol

22. Teaching myself to paint
I'm experimenting with black and white right now. Just abstract stuff, I'm no drawer.

Just finished watching The Big Easy with Dennis Quaid and Ellen Barkin. Love that movie! Dennis' accent tickles me.... in all the right places. :evilgrin: Plus the love scenes are hot, hot, HOT!!

Now I'm going to watch Don Juan De Marco, paint, and drink a glass of Coppola red table wine.

27. On West Coast, about to: 1) nap; 2) go out to dinner...
3) bolt seven bookcases to the wall, and paint them tomorrow.

Do I know how to party down or WHAT?

Actually, my wife has to work this weekend (from home, fortunately), but she's glued to her Mac and can't have any distractions. So I'm being a good boy.

For now, anyway. :evilgrin:

28. I'm just stupid.
Edited on Sun Feb-08-04 12:21 AM by MercutioATC
I was supposed to (tentatively) shoot a band tonight but I canceled (it's an informal thing anyway) to help my ex (with whom interesting things, physical and otherwise have been happening) set up a home gym.

5 hours of slap-and-tickle (NOT the unwelcome sort), one completed machine, too much vodka (on her part) and a "get out" later, here I am...

I brought the bottle and I TOOK the bottle when I left. I'm really making headway on the remaining 5 inches....

31. I was up grading papers until 4:30 AM -- so it's mid-afternoon for me!
I'm going to have a late dinner and work on my laptop while waiting for SNL to come on.


It's just as well I don't have a date ... what reasonable person would put up with the kind of hours I'm keeping these days!

35. I'm not home!
I'm visiting at my niece's house in Arizona. I'm on vacation and everybody else here is asleep, so I thought I'd see what's up here.

My niece has two dogs, shitzus?, one is about 10 weeks and the other is an adult of several years age. Both are quite cute and personable, but the puppy really cracks me up! Little puffy fur ball running around the floor.

I miss my dogs, they are at home with their "dad" and their sister the bird.

I miss my hubby too. I'll be home Monday honey! :hi:

43. Mentally exhausted after 40+ college basketball bets
Now dominating a half gallon of chocolate chip while catching up with the caucus results, surprised that Kucinich did so well in Washington.

My math-based wagering systems had a rough mid-afternoon, but thanks to Seton Hall I got back to even and finished there.

Trading dollars after 10 hours of running around all over town wasn't exactly the gameplan, but that's the nature of this pursuit.
