Joe's work has once again dictated our evening. Only this time, more extreme than others.
With 24 hours notice, Joe had to fly to DC for a seminar. He'll be gone less than 24 hours and I'm fine with it.
So what do I do on a night alone? I run completely amuck (why isn't "amuck" recognized by spellcheck?). Totally crazy. Wild woman.
AKA: Three glasses of Chardonnay, a rogue quesadilla, and back episodes of The Mentalist.
This girl knows how to rebel, no? I bet you're all sad you weren't invited to my party.
P.S. Also, I watched Lost without him. And promised to save it for him. And out of habit, I watched it, reached the end, and hit "Stop and Delete". Crap.
Amok;-)
ReplyDeleteSo the poor fella will come flying home exhausted, pining after his supposedly recorded Lost episode and relishing a post of Chardonnay...and...
ReplyDelete...!BANG!...his hopes will be dashed.
I'd give anything to have a night to myself to run amuck, amock, amok...crazy.
ReplyDelete;)
Quick, replace LOST with an episode of America's Next Top Model...he'll never know the difference!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou can probably find the Lost episode on the internet somewhere.
ReplyDeleteYou were definitely a wild woman last night, and up way past your bedtime. I'm telling on you.
You are one crazy lady! Watch out!
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - THANK YOU!!! I wish you weren't anonymous so I could name my firstborn after you.
ReplyDeletemo.stoneskin - I know, I'm such a bad wife. I don't know why he keeps me around some days.
Sass - He's very rarely away overnight though almost always occupied downstairs in the evenings. I enjoy my occasional nights flying solo.
Alabama Redhead - I seem to recall that didn't work out so well for you. I think I'll just tell him we'll watch on Hulu.
Chocoholic - thanks for stopping by!
blognut - I only stayed up so late because I was waiting for Joe to call. Yeah, that's it! And I was in bed at 11:30. That's not so late! I blame the naked Russians and their free laptops.
If he gets mad, just punch him in the face! :)
ReplyDeleteI am reveling in your amok-ness, but ohhhhhh girl, you deleted LOST?!
ReplyDeleteDon't they still do that re-run the last week's episode right before the next week's thing? That's actually even better because they have all the extra info running along the bottom of the screen. If he's upset, put that spin on it!
I like because it's "amok".
ReplyDeleteAlso...huh...my best friend and his wife are Joe and Kate.
Wait a second...
OH NO!! you deleted! LOL yikes.
ReplyDeleteHope you had fun running amok!
ReplyDeleteYou can easily find the Lost episode online, not to worry!
So every time I hear amok, I think of Hocus Pocus and have to say it three times... amok amok amok.
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm better now. And I have to admit every now and then i crave a solo night.
Rogue quesadilla! Now THAT sounds like a party.
ReplyDeleteOuch. And now you'll be busting to tell him what happened at the end.
ReplyDeleteTotally but kinda related, why doesn't Kate prance around in her underwear anymore?
Isabella - You can only imagine if it had not been a work night!
ReplyDeleteDonnetta - Fabulous advice!
Sassy Britches - Good call about the "enhanced" rerun. That might be the way to go.
the iNDefatigable mjenks - Your Kate spells her name wrong. I mean, different.
Debbi - Wish all of life had an undo button!
Snarky - I always have fun running amok. It just ends too soon.
Julie - I haven't seen that movie so I'll take your word for it. When Joe was in his MBA program, I had every other Friday night to run amok by myself. Twas awesome.
RAS - You've never had a quesadilla until you have a rogue quesadilla.
Captain Dumbass - I already told him that Sawyer was forced to kill Sayid at the end. So sad. And Kate doesn't prance around in her underwear anymore because all that island hopping gave her stretch marks.
I am a little dissapointed you didn't give me a call and invite me over. I mean, I could have brought over a puzzle or something and we'd party all night!
ReplyDeleteLOL! What a fun post.
ReplyDeleteInvite me next time to your party. hehehe
I must be getting old...I actually ENJOY having the house to myself. Cheers!
ReplyDeletebetween me and you...I love when the mister is out of town for a night or two...it makes me like him even better when he gets back home !!
ReplyDeleteand in regards to the lost "lost"...just run around naked in front of him for a minute and he'll forget all about that episode !!!
Grand Pooba - Next time, I'm SO going to call you.
ReplyDeleteShey - Sounds like my party will be popular. We'll all have so much fun!
Melissa - When I was younger and more timid, I hated it. Now, it's awesome. I sorta wished he traveled just a *bit* more often.
Beth - Well there's a way to distract him for sure!
That sounds like the perfect evening right there.
ReplyDeleteWife o Riley - Hard to beat chardonnay and a rogue quesadilla!
