So what do you do for fun? What do you and your friends do when you get together? What's your idea of "having fun"?

Now when the time comes, you know like getting pregnant *doesn't knock but punches on wood*, getting married *crosses fingers*, then I won't fight it but if I have no reason to settle down then why should I? I don't do anything just for the sake of doing it.
I get it. I was just relaying my own memory.

I was not married and did not have kids either when I realized working at 7:30 am sucks after a night of drinking. It just wasn't worth it anymore. It wasn't just for the sake of doing it.

Well sometimes we go out to dinner but I'm broke and I get off really late tonight so that is out of the question.

Usually we all go over to one persons apt and we BYOB and have a few drinks and just sit around and either play a game or something but we all usually just end up talking and having the funniest conversations and cracking jokes.

(I was going to type Bring Our Own Beer and was going to put it acronym style but realised it spelled BOOB.)

Or I like to go over to TG's and we'll play video games and drink and we'll race each other and the loser has to take off an article of clothing.

I don't really feel like drinking tonight maybe one or two drinks (I have mikes hard raspberry margaritas sitting in my trunk, I hope they don't freeze and break) but I just want to be around a lot of people and laughing and just having fun. I like big groups of people, its nice to be around everyone.

TG and I play disc golf but tonight its too late for that.
I just really want to hang out with a lot of people tonight.

I don't drink on the nights I have to be at work at 7am.
Which is why I want to have fun tonight!!!!

Hmmmmmmmm....good point. Either way, it looks like there just might be some shred of hope.

We can't jump to conclusions too quickly. We'll have to keep our eye on future developments.

I've never drank on nights I've had to be to work early and I get cranky when I don't sleep and I go to bed earlier on nights I work early. I go to bed about 9-10 on the nights I have to be to work at 7am. Its always been like that, I always adjust accordingly to my schedules, just before I have worked nights or later in the afternoon.

Maybe settling INTO a new job but not settling down. My glory days are not over yet. I still haven't officially been on "spring break" as sad as that is, ONE DAY I plan on boarding a plane to somewhere that sounds like an alcoholic drink and spending a whole week in a bikini. I also never had jello shots, that's also a must before I "settle down".

Last paycheck I paid bills and bought $106 in groceries and stored them at my friend apartment (so my bottomless pit of a brother doesn't inhale it all) and I have made dinner over there a few times for me and my friend and one or two people.

Did I tell you guys I am getting a one bedroom apt as soon as I save up some money?
And I am debating keeping my car insurance at the state minimum (it canceled and I could only pay the state min price to get it restarted). Its $60 vs $130 but I don't know if I feel comforatable doing that.
I also am going to go on my own cell phone plan and use my 19% discount on it.

Right there it'll cut my cost a lot.

But with my two jobs, working 40 hours with my security job and 8 with walmart I can afford a one bedroom at $795 with $100 for utilities.

The Cranberries are people's early adolescence tunes? Oh boy.

I'm joining you over there at the Senior Center, Zim. Let me just go get my stick.

Aww, Julia, 16? What a milestone, mom.
