Singles Social Club: It's 5 o'clock somewhere!

[cmc08]

to the crazy Singles Social Club (well, I am crazy anyway. . .everyone else has to speak for themselves). . .its the weekend and kinda slow around here, although it has been doing pretty good this weekend. Pull up a barstool and have a seat. . .join in on the action and have fun.

For me it really depends on when my son comes out here. Although I would bring him with me. . .he is an adult after all. . .and has a driver's license and is NOT a drinker. Can you say "designated driver"?

Thanks for the welcome!
Also very handy having a designated driver around, though when I've done it, my friends tend to over do the liquid intake and are literally rolled out of the car at the end! Always good to give more proof to a stereotype! lol

After another special day spending time with cancer survivors and their caregivers, I am relaxing on my balcony while enjoying a glass of wine. Only thing, there isn't a here to enjoy the wine with me by candlelight.

So funny! I was on my balcony with some wine too last night! I just planted flowers in my deck boxes and set up the deck lights. Unfortunately my "candle" was a bug candle

Posting from my phone since thunderstorms are moving in and the friend I'm house-sitting for has hughesnet, which doesn't like storms....


Went to visit my brother earlier. The kids made cards for him and you could tell he was touched. He told me exactly what happened, and it definitely sounded like a seizure of some sort, although they still need to do an eeg on him. But, it is probably linked to all the surgery they had to do on him following his suicide attempt 18 years ago. The bullet lodged where his left eye used to be and some bone (and maybe bullet) fragments had to be cleaned out of his cranium and they said he might have issues in 15-20 years. When I first got the message from Mom, my heart sank at "I have to tell you what happened to Mike..." because I was afraid he had tried something again (he was going to back in 2003 but he called me (in England) to say goodbye and I called back and told Dad and got him some intervention). The best thing so far about this seizure is that he was going in and out of consciousness and thought he was dying and he was really glad to still be alive. What a day!

Wishing your brother all the best as he recovers

Good morning my friends. Well, its Sunday. Just have to say I hope you all are having a great day. Hugs and happy Sunday to all.

Thanks Darcy! I'm heading out to high school graduation for my students. It's an outside ceremony so I am really hoping the rain holds off until after 7pm!! Then its off to Stop and Shop for the weekly trip!

I did the same thing last night. I found this great cheese shop yesterday, so I enjoyed the wine with this great goat cheese, bread, and snack mix. All of which I got there!!!! It got a little cool so I had to come inside, but still enjoyed it.

Somehow DS talked me into a pet....we went to his school yesterday for a 20th anniversary festival and we came home with 2 hissing cockroaches. So we are the proud owners of 2 female cockroaches DS has named cockies....Since he can't tell them apart???

Nice! Goat cheese and snack mix! Geez, if we all lived closer we could be on the deck with wine AND sharing some laughs!

I was thinking a nice pet would be a fish! Insects as pets? You are a brave woman!!

I thought you were going to say you adopted a cat or something.

so why can't you go??? that would be so sad......

My thoughts exactly.. .I am still trying to figure out a way to do this and also head to Vegas. . .Ya know. . .

Hmmm, looks like we're approaching critical mass...will see if I can adjust my coaster road trip schedule...

Ok, ok...looks like the east coast had better prepare itself for a little Texas at the end of July.

I'm a bit of a newbie on here but it's just after 5pm over here in Ireland so thought I'd say Hi!
It's a pretty wet evening and doesn't look too good for the rest of the night... especially when I'll be out working in the rain all night! The joys of night shifts! lol

to the board!!

I am off to begin packing for my trip...

Thanks for the Welcome!

Sounds like a nice way to spend the evening by packing for your trip! Though I'll not be doing that for a while yet... aim is to be over for the Marathon weekend in January... hopefully!

 

[bluedevilinaz]

It will get you in shape for when I am in Vegas next month and want to walk the strip.


BUT, you will have to walk the length of the strip twice. . .I love walking through the casinos, so when I am there get ready. . .

Hahaha Yeah... We'll see how I feel. Depends on what schedule they have me working. I won't know until 6:30am each day. Oh the joys of being on call.

!! Its a great, crazy, funny, and unpredictable group....

I hope everyone is having an enjoyable weekend. I've been pretty busy the last week or so with house-hunting (that I am growing vastly frustrated with), getting ready for preschool graduation next week, and waiting word on my Dad's condition.

Today I just did some last errands before the work week, took DD to see Kung Fu Panda 2, which was really good surprisingly, and now catching the X-Men marathon while making our Sunday dinner.

The CM that I met when I was at Disney last month and I have been speaking a few times a week, or texting and he seems nice enough, but I don't know if its my old age, or just the thirst for something more than a nice looking face, however he is just not holding my attention. I guess the bright side is that Im just not *that* desperate yet.. lol.

You know that doesn't matter to me. . .we just work around your schedule. . .lol.

 

[bluedevilinaz]

haha yeah well I also have 2 dogs at home I can't leave there for days on end alone.

Terrific! Are you planning to enter one of the races, or do you just like to watch?

 

[karice2]

LaLa,

Always keep CM's as friends. I saw X-Men first class today. So good. Why is the weekend so fast?

I never accomplish all the stuff I need to.

 

[bluedevilinaz]

lol true

I agree with Darcy....since I am a little crazy too


Ok here is the deal with the new pet.....My son loves them and has stopped bugging me for a real pet. These two lovely ladies don't require much work and can be left alone while away from home. I still won't touch them and I am hoping they will survive longer than the fish we had. We didn't have much luck with them.

 

[MICKEY88]

that bites, I might be in florida at the end of July

where's DC I wanna smack the boy, I told him we should make the meet in Mid to late August, that way we could do hersheypark, and the PA ren fairre in one weekend..

Just a little ??

Yes just a little...I don't want to scare the newbies.


There are too many pages to read for the truth to come out.

Hey girl! Yeah you are right. He's a sweetheart, just I feel like I would eat him alive intellectually. I saw X-Men first class on Friday and absolutely loved it!! Of course there were a few disconnects between this one and the Trilogy but overall, I truly enjoyed it. This weekend went by waaaaaay too fast.

I gotta call you sometime this week too, I may be in your area doing some car business. I am looking at trading in my car and the one I have my eye on in the color I want is sold in MD... and the price is right!

Nite nite peeps.. start of the work week but the work headaches have started already...

I say, if it makes your son happy, then run with it. I would do the same thing for my son, even though I rank cockroaches right up there with spiders on the creep out factor.

Guess you're just going to have to postpone your trip.

I can't speak for DC, but my guess is he'll just say you guys can have another meet for the ren faire. Unfortunately, I can't come up in late August because I'll already be back in school.
