Why are you here & what would you rather be doing?

Consuela Banana Hammock, 11 April, 2008 at 20:42 Posted on Off Topic Posts 0 27

I'm stuck at home with my canky ankle while H is in a boutique hotel in Dublin and not due home until tomorrow afternoon. I'd rather be there with him this evening and enjoying a fabulous meal, a few drinks ... but I'm not allowed to walk on my foot so I'm dog-sitting ... for the next two weeks ... [V]

And you?

    I am here because I am a FND and lately with H not having a job we are saving like mad because go to Tenerife on 16th May ?

    I quite like a Friday/Saturday in the house though.

    How is your ankle feeling now? ?

    I'm here as a welcome distraction from my work (which is quite literally piled up beside me).

    I would rather be relaxing in a tidy home with all my work done so I can look forward to the weekend ?

    I am here because I don't want to go out tonight. Mr W is out. I am eating pasta, drinking wine and sulking about not being able to run the FLM on Sunday.

    I hope your ankle is better soon - injuries are a fcuker.

    I'm here because it's only 3.49 in NYC and hence I'm still at work ?

    I'd rather be at home with a nice glass of wine!

    Thanks for the enquiries into my Cankly Ankle. Unfortunately whenever I try and walk a bit (up to the local shop) or even just around the house first thing in the morning before my shower, it starts aching and its hard to get comfy at night. So I really do have to Do Nothing it seems.

    Does anybody actually know how long it takes for tendons to heal? ?

    I'm here because it seems to go nicely with a quiet house (5 year old in bed, OH out) and a glass of wine.

    Oh, and I'm avoiding any of the housework that needs doing.

    I'm here because we're skint and dieting, however I'm really enjoying the chance to catch up with my HPADing and loml will be round shortly for an evening of companionable FNDing. There's nothing I'd rather be doing.

    Poor Foxy - trank the cub, and yourself ?

    I've here because I'm enjoying having a quiet night in to myself with a glass of rose while H is out for the night. I'm uploading some pictures to flickr and eating the last of the mini creme eggs left from easter.

    I can't be at the pub getting smashed because I'm hobbling around the marathon on Sunday. I'd rather be anywhere than here now, stressing about it.

    I'm here and would love to be in a nice hotel with Mr Magic for my birthday. Instead, I'm sitting in bed with laptop, thinking about going to sleep while Mr M is downstairs with his mum.

    I said I would go and clean the bathroom in case we have any house viewings tomorrow, so ended up on here whilst cilit bang is whitening my grout?

    Bring on tomorrow when I am on the lash?

    I'm here because I am in a ready steady cook type thing tomorrow and I'm manically leafing through larousse ?

    I am however going round to Mr Pants' for the weekend shortly, and there is nowhere I'd rather be.

    I'm here because I'm killing time before I have to leave for a night shift at work. H is out having a few beers with a friend, otherwise I'd be whinging talking to him about how I really don't want to go to work!

    I'm really rather be relaxing in the bath with a good book (no wine because am upduffed), looking forward to climbing into my bed before 10pm....

    I'm not a happy camper....

    I'm here because i'm always a FND {with the exception of last week which was a one off} and also because i'm not feeling too well.

    I would rather be all dressed up and out with Mr C for meal and drinks

    I'm sitting at home watching crap on tv and generally feeling very un-friday nightish after my shockingly bad day. H is asleep on the couch as his recent insomnia bout leaves him up at 3am. I would rather be in a party mood and out for dinner and drinks with H and not have to work tomorrow.

    I am here because H is asleep on the sofa again !

    I quite like being in on a Friday drinking wine and relaxing. I think I'm past the point of going out 2/3 nights on a weekend just a Saturday will do. Although I'm in tomorrow too so I'll prob be here listening to H snore in 24hrs too..........?

    I'm here cause MrSun is out and MissSun is in bed.

    I'd rather be out with MrSun, enjoying a night out as a couple at a nice italian enjoying a bottle of wine and relaxing, having a conversation.

    I'm here because we've just got back from thehospital again and wonder how many more days we'll have to visit it. It's getting tiring now.

    I'd rather be upstairs trying to make Eleanor sleep rather than worrying what the nurses at the hospital are or aren't doing.
