I am a Saturday night losah

jens_a_ten

Sitting on the couch, who's with me?

 

But but but, I care not. Know why? Here's what I did today:

1)Slept in

2)Had sex

3)Played on the internet

4)Booked flights to Vegas (my first!) with a girl friend (for two weeks from now!)

5) Took a shower

5.1) Had sex again, while in the shower

6)Made dinner

 I am now eating dinner and will probably watch some tv on the computer while Heith watches the college basketball game. 

Not too shabby of a day, my friends. Not.too.shabby.

Woke up at 5 to feed a baby

Woke up at 6:50 to a baby screaming in my face

Hit up the grocery & 2 specialty stores, Trader Joe's and Babies R Us

Ironed and did laundry

Steamy baths for both kids, then bed

Ugly sobbed at Toy Story 3

Had a vodka cranberry.

I'm also a Saturday night losah, sitting on the couch, watching Shawshank for the millionth time.  Just finished a batch of cinnamon sugar popcorn (with just a hint of salt).

Did you know you can get high snorting bath salts?  And that you can make drinkable alcohol by mixing hand sanitizer gel with table salt and straining through a coffee filter?  Kids these days.

I bet Noisy wouldn't recommend snorting glitter bath salts.

We went to breakfast. Then we went to bed. We're still in bed. We should think about dinner soon.

Not unless you want a sparkle-stache.

My day has been a mix of productivity and sloth.  I 

-watched Step Up

-tore myself away from Step Up 2 [The Streets!] to run errands

-returned a bunch of stuff at Babies R Us (I'm now flush with store credit) and survived a jam-packed Safeway

-ate frozen pizza

Now I'm watching Mean Girls on ABC Family while H bakes cheesecake.  I think we're going to watch Dinner for Schmucks later.

I spent half the morning with a great big hangover because I'm dumb. Then I organized my garage and gave Connors old baby furniture to my sister because she's staging her house for selling and wanted to make one room into a fake nursery. I also cleaned out a big trashbag of toys from Connors room and put them in the attic. Now I'm working on a craft project and watching tv. Somewhere in there I spent time hanging out with the new guy I'm seeing as well, so it sounds like I was quite productive today!

jens_a_ten

Bleh, Kristen, come into my bosom.

 

HT, Dinner for Schmucks is disappointing, I warn you. Overall, I didn't hate it. It has some really funny and really heartwarming moments, but they are intermingled with a little too much ridiculousness.

We just assembled some Ikea furniture.  I'm rewarding my efforts with some Moscato.  I would totally put my pj's on and snuggle up on the couch but DH committed us to making an appearance at a birthday party at a bar.   So...I guess I'm "pre-partying" by myself.  Awesome.

Who wants to advise me on what me and my friend should do while in Vegas? We'll be there mostly on weekdays. I'm so excited for outlet shopping, that's all I care about right now. How lame is that?

Tell me things to do that won't offend my delicate sensibilities too much.

 Also, which hotel should we stay at? I'm overwhelmed with choices. 

Also also, Shamwow and I talked about meeting up in Vegas, and I'm real sad because she is going in March during a week when I couldn't make it work. So you should all join me in an attempt to shame her into coming when I'm there.

Also also also, anyone want to hang out in Vegas Feb 6-10?

My day involved staying in my pajamas and sleeping a lot and trying to get caught up on school work. I am on the couch, grading papers, and maybe later if I play my cards right I'll be getting a start on report cards. But if that's not exciting enough, I'm watching the last 2 episodes of Medium OnDemand.

The mention of Allison Dubois in another thread and a commercial the other day about the series finale reminded me of loser Friday nights of the not-so-distant past.

Woken up at 6:30 am by dying smoke detector battery. Went to Target and bought a laptop cooling pad. Ate at a place called Salsalitas. Came home, read, started to make pot stickers for dinner. Got violently nauseous. Projectile vomited all over the bathroom. Had diarrhea. Lying on the couch. Do I win?

I'd only go to Vegas to eat. Lots of great chefs have spots there. I'd definitely go to Bouchon.

Jens, the Superbowl is Feb 6, so the sports books and bars should be hopping.  Go downtown and do Freemont Street.  It's been a few years, but I really liked Sensi at the Bellagio for good eats.  Are you guys going to have time to catch a show?

You had diarrhea while lying on your couch and you're telling us about it!? You are NO lady!

FallinAgain

No. The lying on the couch is post diarrhea. Is that better?

modb1rd

i am so sorry for your food poisoning

jens_a_ten

Ooh.. I didn't think about the Superbowl. We'll be getting into town on Sunday night. That will probably be crazy and fun.

Thanks Fallin. I think we will end up going out for one fancy dinner. Bouchon is going on the possibilities list. Also, I'm very sorry about your poo situation.

Lindsay, I am hoping we can catch a show. I'd really like to see Cirque du Soleil (Canadian roots muthereffers!), but open to other possibilities if you have recs. We aren't really interested in seeing the burlesque shows, male or female. We're  too pearl clutchy for that.

Also, I want to go run around in the fountains at the Bellagio.

I'm such a prairie gal, I'm just going to be walking around with my mouth hanging open the entire time I'm there.

Well...where will you be outlet shopping? Are you staying on the strip? I think there are outlet shops just off the strip. Probably about a $20 cab ride.

I love Planet Hollywood because it's right in the middle of the strip, and it's connected to the mall. This means you can actually get breakfast without paying $30 per person. I'm also a huge fan of their buffet (Spice Market). I've also stayed at MGM and NYNY and both are great, but at the far end of the strip. It's annoying because you think you can walk everywhere, but you can't. Everything seems so much closer than it is.

Studio 54 (at MGM) is my favorite club. They usually have specials for ladies, free drinks and such.

There are tons of great restaurants, but my favorites are Mon Ami Gabi (Paris) and the Voo Doo Lounge (the Rio). The Rio is just off the strip, but the restaurant is 50 stories up and looks over the strip. If you eat there around sunset, it is AMAZING.

As for shows, if you really want to see a cirque de soleil, you can't go wrong with Love at the Mirage (Beatles-themed) or O at the Bellagio. The Jabbawockeez are also playing...uh, somewhere. We were supposed to see them but my husband got food poisoning. Jerk. 

 

jens_a_ten

The Beatles Cirque show was at the top of my list. I'm not even the world's hugest Beatles fan, but I think it would be awesome.

I will get to the outlets. I don't care if it's a 20 dolla cab ride. You don't understand how crappy the shopping is here.  There is an outlet mall somewhere near the south end of the strip I think.

Jens. You should come to San Diego on the 6 th. I tis Lorne's birthday. And not too far from Vegas. Also, I am super drunk and way impressed with my phone's ability to decipher my words. Time for foosball.

jens_a_ten

I love drunk Noisy.

I love San Diego, and I would love nothing more than to come there and make Lorne uncomfortable by making an internet stranger appearance at his b-day, and then monopolizing his time all evening by regaling him with DenimLorne stories. 

However, I don't think that drive is in the cards, baby. Maybe you should bring Lorne to Vegas for his birthday. hm?

pdxmouse

I wonder if foosball is what Noisy meant to type.

If you like ballet, our old artistic director (James Canfield) is now in Las Vegas. I hear he's been getting pretty good reviews.

I have no other suggestions, other than the food Las Vegas sounds like my idea of purgatory. But don't let that stop you from having fun.

noisy_penguin

I wonder where the name Canfield came from. Like, a field of cams , or like, "you know bob? He sure. Can field.," I did mean foosball I voigt.lorne. I sam Awesome! 7

salimoo

I Sam awesome 7! Jens, my ex & i took lorne out for his bday a couple of years ago (without noisy!) so i think he may be ok with internet stranger danger.

ChristinS

I love Vegas in all its cheesiness.

Jen&Joe06

We stayed at Bally's and liked it. It is right in the middle of the strip and had great prices. The outlet mall is awesome. There is a mall right beside Treasure Island but it is not an outlet and so more expensive. The shark exhibit at MGM was cool as is the M&M store. Freemont street was really cool at night.

HappyTummy613

"I sam awesome 7" is a great new victory cheer.

pdxmouse

I'm glad you meant foosball. I enjoy foosball. But did you really voigt Lorne? Was is Jon Voigt? Did he talk about Angelina? Is her brother she made out with at the Oscars a Voigt? He was pretty cute, even if the whole frenching his sister thing is kinda weird, I think I'd rather voigt with him than Jon.

Canfield: 

This is an English locational surname. It originates from the Essex villages called Great Canfield and Little Canfield. It is claimed that the derivation is from the Norman village of Canville Les Deux Eglises, in the Department of Seine Inferieure, however whilst this is very possible, the more likely explanation is from the Olde English pre 7th century word "cain" meaning pleasant, and "felda", an area of ground cleared for agriculture. The surname is recorded in the spellings of Canfield, Cansfield, Caufield, Cempfield and possibly Canwell, although that seems far off the beam.

Voigt:

 

Recorded in several forms including Fogt, Foit, Vogt, Vogts, Veogt, Voigt and Voight, this is a German surname, but of pre 5th century Roman (Latin) origins. It derives from the ancient word "advocatus" from which comes the legal term advocate, but which in a transferred sense also means governor. As such it was a status name given either to people who held such a position, or as a theatrical name for one who played the part of a governor in the travelling theatres of the medieval period, or possibly as a nickname for one who was considered by his compatriots to have the airs and graces of a governor. Nicknames which later became surnames in their own right were highly popular in the Middle Ages, and many similar surnames exist including the popular King, Bishop, and Duke.

 Fancy!
