When I was a kid, I was always going out every Friday & Saturday night. It was great fun and I liked seeing bands & dancing & partying with all my favorite friends. After I got married and held a full time job... it was always more fun to have friends come to our place...still seems like that although our friends respect us enough to call first and ask what they can bring. I'm always up for making snacks or dinners for my favorite buds. Most of us that have been married a long time now (geez, for me that's 30 years!!) and prefer to save money & visit each other at various homes to "hang" & enjoy life, food, music together. Very civil and lots of laughs.
However, to keep the interest alive in our marriage, me or my hunnyman plan at least one night out as a wild card
every month, whether it's a new restaurant or club or even something like a date at a museum & lunch out. If not I do
seem to go nuts & get bored but so does he. Hence my love of good porn, hahaha, but I digress. I gotta say that watching sports is such a
big deal with my man (A major Cavs addiction) that I go do fun stuff alone...& often. I need the stimulus.
Luckily we don't need too much to entertain ourselves at home - we cook great stuff and tend to plan a movie together later in the night on the couch or snuggled up in bed. When I rent from Netflix...I always pick one he'd like and one I'd like. Guess I'm an over-achiever in the "equal rights" movement. Too many chick flicks and he bails!!
We're lucky because I keep it fun & he tries to also. I just can't see dumping tons of money on clubs or restaurants that are loud, cold & crowded, where friends can't talk about intresting topics. In truth, It doesn't hurt that he & I are both gourmet cooks. Our friends love that about us. Yes, we are very lucky people! Much to be thankful about.
So Call and yes, Stop in when you're in town! If your stuck in Y-town, Ohio that is.....
