What's your splurge...
Wednesday my DH is going to Portland for a few days. It will be the longest he's been away since we've been married, and my first full night alone. I'm thinking of cooking a nice piece of fish (DH hates it), getting some gelato, playing with photoshop, and hopefully being able to eventually fall asleep.
When your DH is gone do you splurge or treat yourself to something special?

Re: What's your splurge...
(This is all pre-baby)
I would either get take out from one of my favorite restaurants that Ray never wants to go to (either Outback or Macayo's), and veg out watching Sense & Sensibility (my favorite movie) or true crime shows that he hates, or catching up on Days of Our Lives (which he also hates).
If he was gone over a weekend, or for awhile, I would usually drive up to Phoenix and stay with my mom and hang out with my friends.
Two years ago, he went to San Jose for business and was gone for like 5 weeks - during the summer, when I was on summer break. I was bored out of my mind!!!!!
The couple of day trips are kind of nice though. Just some me time where I can splurge and veg and do things I like.
Now that we have a baby, it's different though. I enjoy it a lot less when he's gone, even if it's just for a few days.
This is my second night alone, DH is on a cruise right now and wont be back till Firday, but I havent done anything yet. I did skip making dinner tonight but that's it. I will have dinner with my in-laws tomorrow but probably wont do anything crazy. I should pack but i dont think that will happen. But I am getting bored all alone and I still have 4 more days left. He's been gone since Saturday night.

I've been known to have popcorn for dinner when he's out of town. I also do the mani and pedi thing and watch chick flicks. Sometimes i'll have friends over and we'll make cosmos as well.
a few times i've been talked into going out and dancing with the girls but that dosn't happen all that often.
Funny thing is I have a hard time sleeping in the middle of the bed, I always gravitate towards a side, even before I was married and slept by myself.
