So in the last seven months, I have barely watched TV at all. All I every get around to watching is usually Tivo-ed political commentary at Bret’s house. Well, my boyfriend and all his friends went to Vegas this last weekend (I wasn’t invited, then at the last minute I was invited, but then said no out of principle because the only reason they invited me was because someone dropped out and they wanted to keep their costs down… long story) anyway where was I... oh yeah, Bret was in Las Vegas. So, in my current friend-deprived state, I stayed home Saturday night. This is, of course, after a trip to Pinkberry, where I got a medium instead of a small because I was treating myself. Anyway so I went home and plunked down in front of my roommate’s giant flatscreen. I was expecting to have to watch the Real Housewives of Orange County marathon on Bravo, but lo and behold! Cable TV panders to single women on Saturday nights!!!! I was fully occupied from 6pm to 1am with an appetizer of A Cinderella Story, the main course being The Devil Wears Prada and the sweetest most delicious dessert of The Notebook. Mmmm so filling and satisfying.
But then I realized, oh my gosh, if I were single this would be my Saturday night every week!! In my current situation, if I didn’t have Bret I would have seen the Notebook at least 50 times by now!! So long story short, thank God for boyfriends that always spend time with you so you don’t end up eating ice cream every weekend watching sappy chickflicks for 7 hours straight!!
Lesson #2: Make more friends that don’t bartend.

hey, I LOVED watching chick flicks and eating ice cream nearly every saturday night for 2 years while Michael was gone. It was the highlight of my week!!! Although, it was usually just movies that I popped in. A little popcorn, a scrapbooking project, and I was SET!
Or...visit said friend while she is bartending and get free drinks!
