The Blog Post I Wish I Could Write
…but I don’t feel like organizing my thoughts and writing clear, coherent sentences.
If I did, I would tell you all about my weekend. The weekend of hanging out with two different sets of girlfriends, one on Friday and one on Saturday, and having an absolutely fabulous time both nights. I would attempt to paint a picture so you can see how much I have in common with the both sets of girlfriends, yet how different they are – as a group and individually. Despite the differences, I love them all the same.
Then I would describe the activities and mention the financial impact of each night. For example…I would tell you that Friday night involved a home made meal of curry chicken, dessert, wine (Moscato and Shiraz), Martin, The Wire, cross dresser impersonations, teen slang (what’s a BOB?), pole dancing (don’t ask!), budget shopping for designer digs, and personal finance.
Total cost: $0
Then I would tell you that Saturday night involved a dining out meal of ribeye steak, mixed drinks (Mai Tais and Watermelon Margaritas), partial birthday celebration, partial “thank gawd she finally dumped that sorry dude” celebration, male bashing, recommendations for new and improved standards (read: having a legal 40 hr job aint enough honey), viewing of Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins, followed by dessert drinks (mudslide with ice cream), new spring clothing lines, and you guessed it – personal finance. LOL
Total cost: $53
Notice: where ever there is Single Ma, there will be fashion and finance. LOL!
My stomach is sore from all the laughs and my head hurts from all the drinks, but I still need to do laundry, gather suits to drop off at the cleaners, clean my house, schedule some bill payments, prepare my tenant’s lease renewal letter, research last minute spring break excursions, take BabyGirl to work, cook Sunday dinner, wash and set my hair, get caught up on my blog reading, and mentally prepare for my leadership class this week.
But I don’t feel like it.
I sure wish I could write that blog post to tell you about my weekend though.
I think I need a Tylenol…

*partial “thank gawd she finally dumped that sorry dude” celebration*
LMAO!
Sounds like you had a very eventful weekend.
Both events sounded fun. We did different things this weekend, but I can definitely relate to your list for today (Sunday.) Whoever said Sunday was our day of R&R was clearly NOT a single parent. By the time I do everything on my to do list for today (or any day), it’s time not to go to bed, but to fall into bed, exhausted, and having to get up early for the next day. Ugh.
:) LOL.. I feel you!!!! and I did the same and my sat was only $24!!!! woooohooooo *ya’ll drank way too much* LOL hahahaaaa I’m way too tired to do ANYTHING today but I’m having a Wire Season Finale party and while I don’t have to do much out of the ordinary I don’t wanna! lol Glad I finished cooking though..
Sweet, sounds like you are had a great time. hopefully this week will be a smooth one.
um… but you wrote it though. coherent and everything. LOL! glad you had a great weekend. i did too!
(Just a note on the picture: That baby is struggling! His parents must be so incompetent, poor thing!)
And are you referring to my Xerxes impersonation? I’m telling you, that’s exactly what happened. He looked like a 7 foot Rupaul covered in eyeliner and skin bronzer.
Here’s to free entertainment with fabulous ladies!
That poor baby looks exhausted.
Sound like a fabulous weekend. LOL @ fashion and finance.
