Friday night, alone again.....so what am I doing tonight, I hear you ask?  Am I going to make up for last Friday night spent cleaning the oven and go out on the town?  Get drunk, dance my ass off, have a 3am breakfast and hit up some yard sales on my way home tomorrow morning?

 

No, I'm staying home and I'm doing the ironing.

This seals it!  I am soooo pathetic!!!  Hahah!!  I'm almost 35 and I can think of nothing more fun to do on a Friday night than stay home and do my ironing!

That's ok, I have alcohol around here that needs drank.  We can't take it with us when we leave, and I'm not going to be able to drink on my birthday (have to drive to Custer to ferry boys back from camp the morning after)...so I have decided to dispose of the remaining whiskey, vodka and rum in a humane manner, ie drink it.

Drunken ironing....hmm, I've never done that before....

Somehow, I knew this title was you. A developing theme, perhaps.
Try to get the ironing done before the alcohol is, even if you have a self-shut-off iron. Better safe than sorry.

And... what're you drinking (he says, perhaps ready to necro an old thread)?

I think there is a definite trend starting here, and it's very sad....like me!

I did some ironing, and then took a break for a drink...and I haven't gone back to the iron since!  So much for getting all my ironing done tonight..oh well.

I am drinking.......I started with a beer, just to kind of lay the foundation, then I had a rum and coke....there was only enough rum for one drink, so now I'm drinking Jack Daniels.  I have vodka but it's vanilla flavored and I don't really like it much, so I may end up sticking with Jack for the rest of the night.

No drinking with Monobrow for you tonight?

The flight leaves out tomorrow morning, and I need to be alert (and not smelling like a distillery) when I meet my SO at the airport. Additionally, we took Cochise out for his birthday last night, and there was much imbibing to be had then. MB had to DD. He's headed out to a club tonight, but I'm here packing. I'm not even touching the Old Crow that was staring at me from the fridge earlier...

Are you going home for good, or are you going for a break?

Smart move, btw.  Lonesome's never shown up at the airport hungover, but I'd be pretty pissed if he did.

So, my birthday's on Wednesday...are you taking me out?

I'm done with my additional training, for now. I'm actually getting some leave when I get back, too. I should be at my home station for quite some time after that, as well, although I can't speak for what sort of shift I'll be working.

I'm afraid Wednesday's out, though. I'll have to be cognizant enough on Thursday morning to watch the little ones while their mother is at school.
