Staying In – The New Going Out?
I’m a sociable kind of girl, I like my parties, I like my drinks and I love to have fun so it shocked me more than anyone when I found myself over this bank holiday with no plans from Saturday morning through to Monday night.
None.
Could I really go through one of the most popular long, work free weekends without drinking in the sun, dancing until 3am and waking up each day with a hangover?
Well, I did and it felt marvellous!!!
I cleaned, I sunbathed, I pampered, I slept, I woke early and made gourmet style breakfasts, it was bliss.
Most of all, I caught up on my favourite thing in the whole world – TV.
I watched hours and hours of the stuff;
Saturday Kitchen (someone swore on air and it added to the excitement of the omelette challenge)
House series 4 – ALL of it (the new series is starting next weekend)
The Wire – My language now contains so much profanity that I should come with an 18 cert
Home and Away omnibus – yes, people do still watch it.
Hollyoaks omnibus – so much tragedy for one small town
Britain’s Next Top Model – Is it wrong to want the recovering anorexic to win – Go Jade!
Behind Bars; The Story of women serial killers – Aileen Wournos; serial killer, or misunderstood hooker, I am yet to decide
I’m a changed women. I have realised that staying in is the new going out. “What about your friends?” you may scream at me, but I simply found new, better friends -
Mr. Wide screen TV
Miss. Sky Plus
Sir. DVD player.
Who’s with me? Who’s going to say boo to boozy nights and yah to box sets, omnibuses and documentaries?
