<< A good evening alone. >>
2009-06-25, 7:44 a.m.

Yesterday was a good weather day. The humidity was quite a bit lower so it was much more comfortable.

The temps were still high, in the 80s but much more tolerable since the air was drier.

Today will be much the same, in the higher 80s, but drier air.

Work was pretty good, too. I was busy for most of the day, but I watched one episode of Dead Like Me over my lunch.

Unfortunately, I had to order the disc for the last two episodes from Netflix of Season One because, for some stupid reason, they don't offer them on the instant watch.

Season Two, however, will be watched online again.

Goofy ass stuff. Makes no sense to me.

Anyway, Dave stopped by my office yesterday morning for a surprise and had a smoke with me. That's always nice.

I went straight home after work. Since it was cooler outside, the house was cooler and I got some work done around there, such as laundry and cleaning out the litter box.

Dave came home shortly after I got there from his appointments up north. He was not feeling well, so I said I would stop by to say hi and then let him rest.

He was in bed when I got there, so I checked his forehead for a temp (yes, I AM a mom.....) and kissed him and told him to sleep.

I had no idea what he had planned for the evening, but since he was either going to go out with the guys for their new Wednesday Night Guy Event OR stay home and be sick, I figured it was a good time to do what I wanted to do, and what I wanted to do was go see the movie Star Trek.

It has been in town for a LONG time and Dave and I had been talking about going to see it, but I knew it would not last much longer. And since Dave and I never got around to seeing it together, I figured it was a perfect time to go.

So, off I went.

I hadn't heard a word from Dave so I figured he was either out or still sleeping.

Got to the movie. Okay. Too funny. I was the ONLY one in the theater for the first few minutes of the movie.

I mean the ONLY ONE.

Then a couple came in and had to sit on the same aisle as me.

Now, there was a WHOLE EMPTY theater to choose from, yet they decided that I had the best seat, so they had to sit by me.

Goofy stuff, that.

And they talked the whole time.

Whatever.

Course, I was not an angel, either. Dave kept texting me and I was trying to watch the movie and text back. Not that I had the ringer on, but the light from the phone was probably disturbing my neighbors.

Too bad. They could have moved.

So, the movie was pretty good. Not quite as good as I had hoped. And I didn't really care for the actor who portrayed Spock.

But whatever.

So, Dave? He was not too happy that I went to the movie without him. He said he was hurt.

I said I had mentioned going to this movie several times but we never went and I thought I better go before it was too late. I have been told that I NEEDED to see this movie in the theater and not at home, so I saw an opportunity and took it.

Too bad. HE was going to go out with the guys, so he would not see me anyway.

Turns out he did not go out, but was a bit upset about being left behind, so he decided to go to the casino, because THAT makes him feel better.

Whatever.

After the movie, I went home, took care of stuff around the house and got myself ready for bed. I decided to go sleep at Dave's because I wanted to see him and make sure he was doing okay.

I could have slept in my own house since the weather had cooled off enough for good sleeping, but, again, I wanted to see Dave.

I went over there. Made myself to home. Curled up on the couch and watched TV and fell asleep until 1:00 a.m., when I drug myself into bed.

Dave came home. I didn't hear him until he got into the bedroom. It was 2:30. He told me to just go back to sleep, but I got up with him while he had a bowl of cereal and talked a bit.

Then I went back to bed and sleep so soundly until my alarm went off.

I ran home, showered, took care of the dogs, had breakfast, then got a text from Dave, saying that he had coffee on. So, I ran over there on my way to work and had a cup with him.

Tonight we are supposed to go out on the pontoon with Doug and April. Dave wants to go fishing, though.

I told him that I didn't care what we did. I did say that I would rather go fishing if I was going to be on a lake anyway. Dave said that Doug would pout if we didn't go with him on the new pontoon, so whatever. It sounds like the new pontoon is HUGE and holds 15 people. And it sounds like there will be a LOT of people going, so I really don't want to feel crowded on a boat, where I am NOT the most comfortable anyway. I may have been on a few boats this summer already, but I am still afraid of the water and they still make me a bit nervous.

But it's getting better.

Anyway, so whatever.

I guess I will find out what we do when we do it.

We were invited by one of the girls to go out tomorrow night to Ernie's, Zorbaz, and then to Black Bear for karaoke.

Okay. This is kinda strange. She invited the group to this gathering because her boyfriend's business partner's best friend is coming into town.

Okay. I barely even know her boyfriend (mostly because he is married and having an affair with this woman. It's all hush hush, of course, but now she is trying to get him into HER life with HER friends. Whatever. He will still never leave his wife. This has been going on for YEARS.) So, I don't know her boyfriend hardly at all. And I certainly don't know his business partner. And I REALLY don't know HIS friend. So why the hell should I go to this?

Everyone else in the group is of the same mind. We don't know these people.

so, no one wants to go.

Then there was another invitation to go to Trish's for a barbeque. The Double D's don't want to do THIS, either, because they don't want to spend time at a barbeque and to quote Doug, "waste one summer night sitting around when we could be doing something FUN!!!"

Whatever.

Now, Dave is talking about taking me to see a movie tomorrow night. I told him I wanted to see The Hangover and he said he would take me.

I know he is only saying that because he knows I had wanted to go see Star Trek with him but he never found the time to take me. So, he is feeling guilty.

No reason. I am a big girl. I can go to a movie by myself if I want to. You don't NEED to have someone with you, you know.

I think he feels like he let me down. Which is total crap.

Saturday night is the big Billy Squire concert. And I am looking forward to THAT. After the concert, April invited us to stop by Pine River for their street dance. Pine River is on the way home from the casino where the concert is being held. So, I am looking forward to THAT. Dave is pouting a bit about THAT because he knows I cannot drive after dark on the highway, so HE has to stay sober. Poor baby!!!! I rarely get to drink while we are out since I am always the one to drive. So, he can drive once in a while. It won't kill him.

However, that DOES mean he probably won't dance with me.

That's okay. I'll dance with April and Doug. And whoever else from our group is going.

Anyway, so the weekend is already getting full. I need to find time to get Dave over to hold my decking so I can saw it to length. The boards are WAY to heavy for me to hold AND use my table saw alone. So, I need help. I have been waiting for a good time to do this for the last couple of weeks. I have HOLES on my deck since I removed the rotten boards a couple of weeks ago. I would like to get this done so I can paint it and get my swing put back into place. I hate projects half done.

Speaking of projects, I suppose I should actually do some work here.
