Boring Friday night

Man tonight is just so dag-gone boring! I went to a ball game at 7 and got home a little after 9. My folks were off shopping and I was here by myself for a while, gave me a chance to think some. I have determined that this will be the last Friday night that I will be doing absolutely nothing by myself. I reckon I really need to go ahead and speak my peace to that girl at school, or make plans with my folks to spend time with them, so I can have somewhere to go or be on Friday evenings.

Do any of y'all ever get this feeling? If I had an enclosed shop I would be working on my John Deere restoration, but all I have is an open carport, which is not the best thing to be working under on a damp night.

This is the first Friday in ages that I've had something to do and someone to go with. My best friend and her husband left their baby with his parents so they came thru town on the way SOOO, I bought dinner and got to see my best friend for the first time in months. Lasted a coupla hours, then I'm back here bored again. I used to have a regular place to go play pool and hang out but I moved to a new town and haven't really gone to find a new place to hang. Good luck with that girl!

I don't usually go out either. Don't even think of it this time of year cause we're calving so kinda have to stay around home. Only left the place twice this last week and once was for a church meeting and the other was to go do bookwork for my grandparents, for a total of about 4 hours all together. It can get boring but I'm pretty good at finding things to do and I like what I do so it isn't bad.

I say go for it with that girl and good luck.

ive been there and it sucks.

back before i had a girlfriend all i would do is drink, smoke, and sit around. i actually looked forward to going to work just so i could talk to someone. i even went in on my days off just to talk to people for a while.

now that ive got a girlfriend, and a damn good one, im hardly home at all anymore. usually just long enough to get some sleep. im either at school work, or with the girlfriend.

tonight i had to work til 8 then i went to her house for about an hour and half and im not tired yet so i got on here.

i definitely wouldnt trade what i have now for anything.

Good to hear you got a girl rebel.

My friday hasn't been too good so far

First off this morning my starter went out (well it slowly has been for a while), but since there was no hill to clutch start it on, I was stuck. I also got kicked by my horse. Oh man, and I'm trying to quit chewing too, which really sucks. Sitting at home would of been an improvement to my day.

I agree with you, but I have to finish that thing sometime!

I'm not that far gone, I ain't to the point where I have to choose between the 2.

at least i wasnt alone on the boring friday night thing. i sat around and did some crap on the computer. then my friend came over who i havent hung around with in ages cuz of his g/f. then i realized that the reason he came to my place was to wait for his g/f to come to town so he could meet here there. that really pi$$ed me off. from there on out i watched "Blue Collar Comedy Tour" on DVD, then "Dracula 2000" was on tv so i watched that. tonight will probly be just as boring.
