Doing it for ME

hikerchick · 09-07-2003, 01:14 PM

Hey partygirl!

I remember those days! LOL I used to party until 6:00 am then go home and change to be at work at 7:00.

I am having a good weekend, thanks for asking.

I'm going to a farmer's market today to stock up on yummy local fruits and veggies.

He leaves at the end of September.

I was going to go with him for part of but decided not to at the last minute after his company decided not to pay for us to go over there.

He does have a good job though, so I'm not complaining, this will be a good opportunity for him and will lead eventually to a promotion.

Jenny · 09-07-2003, 01:38 PM

Haha, I haven't partied like that in months

I'm not as crazy as you though, I never work the day after

Aww, I'm sorry honey! Keep that positive attitude and it will be over in no time at all

Spend a lot of time in the gym to get your mind of it and you'll look even hotter when he gets back
