Fridays are Weird

I have a hard time concentrating on my work on Fridays. I'm having a hard time even concentrating on typing this post. I think it has something to do with the fact that I usually go out on Thursday nights, so I'm typically (at the very least) a tad hungover on Fridays. Then there's the fact that I don't want to get started on a project that I might not finish today and then have to wait two days until I can pick it up again because I might lose my train of thought and would then have to begin again. And lastly, Friday's are so ADD because of all the emailing, planning, etc that goes on in preparation for the weekend's festivities. There's always something going on in my world these days, I really wish I could have a weekend where I didn't have any social obligations and could just chill at the house, maybe sleep all day, do some much needed yard work, watch a bunch of movies or read a book, geez, I don't know when the last time was that I sat down and read all day long. Okay, that's my new goal, next weekend I am going to go sit at Empire all day long and just read a book. I have a new one I've been waiting to start, Fool on a Hill, so that will be my plan for Saturday. I'm so putting it on my calendar: Running in the morning (after I sleep in of course) then go home and start some laundry then head to Empire and camp out on the patio until it gets too dark to read, then hit the grocery and go home and cook something and watch Grey's Anatomy until I pass out. Or, I might read until it gets dark then go home and take a power nap and go out, if I'm feeling social. I guess I'll leave that option open. Wait a second, see, that's why I don't have any time for 'me' time, because I'm always thinking about going out. I'm so addicted to it, sometimes I even go to bars by myself, but its not the drinking so much as the weird, chance encounters that happen and make the night interesting. I run into people I know almost everywhere I go and I've always really loved that feeling of "even though its a big city its a small world". And I think I'm getting ready to start dating again. But maybe just a little. Or maybe not, I guess it depends on who's asking me out and how I feel that day. I've been having such a blast being a fab single gal lately that it almost seems a shame to tie me down again so soon. But I guess I need to remember that for most people dating doesn't mean getting tied down because you're not actually supposed to get serious with every person with whom you go out. Except I haven't really learned how not to do that so its something at which I'll have to work. Fast.
