irishsara, all this means is you get in the car, drive here, and we go to the Blackhorse for pizza. And beer. And soft pretzels.
I have to run after the kids go to bed. I suck so bad at being motivated after that. Earlier this week I never went it came down to it after bed, so I really have to today.
I thought we had our outside lights on too. Moonlight reflected off the snow?? We're obviously not used to this white stuff. G begged to go out again after dinner.
I made sure all the lights on our house are off and if you go outside here, it's really cloudy and sleet is falling. I can't see a moon at all, just low clouds. It's super weird. Maybe a Northern girl will tell us that it's normal. Haha, we're so not used to this!
Are you close to a city? It could be light reflected off the clouds onto the snow and back up from bright city lights.
That sort of makes sense. It makes more sense in my brain. The white of the snow and the low clouds usually makes things brighter, I've noticed
Wine completely destroyed the competition. That run never had a chance. Almost drunk. NEED MOAR CHOCOLATE.
Nope, my run was doomed before it even crossed my mind.
Times like this, I am desperately sad we're not super close geographically. Also, I can't even speak of my jealousy of a week with you and claralou in June. Like, that's what dreams are made of, lol.

We are close to a city and that's what I think too. Does that happen in Chicago?
@therealmc - I want to tell you to "Go! You'll enjoy it once you're there, especially once a little wine is involved!" But I completely understand that split feeling of anticipation and dread. "It will be fun!" vs "omg, this is soooooo awkward".
I know! It sucks so bad that I often let the awkward and anticipation take over. Then I'll allow every excuse to come forward - I am soon tired, I went to work at 6:30am this morning (I did!) and 7am yesterday morning (did that too!) and worked late both days (yup!) and I would really love to just sit on the couch and stare at the wall and deflate from the week. I know I would have fun but MY COUCH IS RIGHT THERE!
I hope you can read this okay on here. It's so me too. I love hanging out with people, but, I could just sit here and it would be so much easier.
Did betsyray fall asleep promptlt after offering to talk about deep dark secrets?
Lol yup. Don't worry, we are going to a party tonight so the odds are good I'll want to share secrets again. I'm such a lightweight these days...two glasses of wine and all my filters are gone.
