Anyone else all alone tonight?
Edited on Sat Mar-11-06 07:55 PM by bif
My wife is up at a friend's cottage and my two daughters are at the Sadie Hawkins dance at their high school. Kinda nice being home alone. I'm gona throw a steak on the grill, have too much wine and watch a movie or two.

1. Yes and No
I'm not literally alone but I am alone. It's a long story.

3. Sounds totally great. I'm jealous, bif!
well, not really. My hubby and our 12 yr old son are off skiing with the guys in Tahoe and I'm home having a "Girl's Weekend" with our 9 yr old dtr.

We saw "Aquamarine" today in the theatre, with her best friend. The mermaid movie, perfect for "'tweeners". :eyes:

Tonite, a jacuzzi soak on the deck with my girl, takeout Chinese and a rental of some other kiddie movie.

It's sweet to be with them, one on one, don't you think?

Have fun! Enjoy your solitude... :hi:

4. I'm home alone. Bored. Lonely.
I should be doing housework, but I'm not up to it right now. Maybe later.

7. I'm alone most of the time
Edited on Sat Mar-11-06 08:32 PM by Droopy
It's nice sometimes, but it's also nice to spend an evening with friends. I've just come into contact with an old friend that I haven't seen in ten years. Maybe we will hook up for dinner some time soon.

Are you on a business trip or something?

12. I'm debating whether or not I should head to a concert alone...
My roommates are in the living room playing video games, but I kind of wanna go to this show. But I don't know if I'm in the mood to go to a show solo.

13. Me too , alone every Saturday night
and I LIKE it that way. Wife is running the restaurant. No meetings for me, nothing to do. I like that steak and red wine idea.

and Lo and behold, there's a bottle of Beringer Alluvium left in the rack!
WOOT!

28. Me. I'm watching my brother and his girlfriend's cats at their house.
It's out in the middle of the country and I'm raiding their cabinets and making an Indian meal. They are vegetarians and my brother is an Indophile, so I'm finding lots of luscious stuff, such as some naan and mint chutney. I have the Springsteen '75 concert that was just released playing full blast.

29. Ah, sounds like a great night. May I suggest a good suspense movie.
Believe it or not, those really heighten the thrill of living. I love the night you are describing. Have fun.

31. Sounds great.
I miss my wife and sons if they are away for any real length of time but every once in a while it's nice to have an evening to yourself.
