now THAT sounds fun.
but I would be SO damn broke, no 'splaining would get me out of that one. ;-)
Ha, not if you won!!
And besides,....don't use but $20...lol
I've won right at $500, in the last month playing nickel slots...lol Husband doesn't mind me going, he's like..."ya need money?"...lol
HAH!
it feels wierd.
I have never out right lied to my husband about where I am or what I am doing.
I have already told him that I am going to work this saturday morning again.
Had to.. you know.. give him notice?
Yea....I know how the system works....lol
Sounds like my method.
Just remember, if this is out of character for you, then you might have some guilt to deal with afterwards...for the stealin' of time.
Its really a sad thing too...that we have to cheat our way, into some free time. I've been there shewolf....still there at times.
But work it girl.........to your advantage. If its 3 hours of peace and quiet that you desire, than you deserve it.....
I wont argue that one bit.
I obviously need some kind of break, or lying about it wouldnt even have crossed my mind.
Im sort of 'giddy' thinking about it.
Well, I would suggest that you have a big time, doing whatever it is you decide to do. And yes, you need a break!
Enjoy yourself!
Wish you were closer, I'd drag ya down to the slots, and we'd drink a beer...and toss our money in those machines....
(I go home at night afterwards, with that damned dinging sound in my head! LOL I REALLY get excited when it starts that DING DING DING DING noise...lol, very FAST!)
Well, I gotta get out of here for the moment, I got 3 ball games tonight, one's a double header in a town 20 miles from the younger sons ballgame! WOOO
Go to Whole Foods and browse their many isles of interesting food, then buy a lunch at their hot or cold food stalls, sit outside and enjoy the scenery while enjoying a leisurly lunch.
This isn't a criticism, but I just don't get the need to lie about it. It is perfectly normal, all right, okay, amen, to have alone time. Absolutely reasonable. If you have to 'splain, I'd find a name for it like Lone Time and schedule it. The guy might like some alone time too.
I guess the subterfuge is part of the fun, for a bit, anyway.
We do have a beautiful new whole foods store here in austin that has a great place to sit and eat on the roof.
That is a good idea.
I did go.
and it was sort of frustrating.
I truly didnt know what to do with myself, so I spent alot of time just driving around hoping to feel some excitement over a store, park, or other part of the city that would give me a direction and a reason to be out.
It never came.
At first I was pretty upset and considered it a waste of time , gas and money.
Then I realized that I have not been alone like that where I was my only concern, and what I wanted to do was the focus of my time.
I plan on doing it again and soon . I need this kind of peace and quiet.
I have had so much going on that I have simply forgotten to stop and be quiet for a while. I put everyone else before myself and it has been pretty devistating.
There really isnt a NEED to lie about it.
My decision to do this was last minute. And we dont really have last minute resources for everyone to do what they want with or with out Jillian.
So I made it a point to make some time belonging to me.
My problem was that if I had said I want some ME time, I would have been asked to put it off, or 'joined' when I really didnt want any company.
So instead of giving that option out, I just went with out saying a word.
