Well, here I sit. Lazy as all get-out. I love it. When I travel over the weekend, I feel cheated, so the next weekend feels SO much sweeter. This is going to be a SWEET weekend.
After a LONG day at work, a few of us decided to stop for a drink at Buffalo Wild Wings. I arranged for Kevin to meet us there, since we haven't had a "date night" in ages. He showed up at my work around 4:30 and chilled out in the break room with a cup of coffee.
At 5, I was flying out of there like my arse was on fire. We showed up at BWW slightly before 3
coworkers showed up. We laughed and talked and I had a couple of
beers. This isn't a line, I only had a COUPLE of beers. When we left,
we got into our vehicles and started them. Thank goodness I parked
behind someone with a chrome bumper, because the reflection showed me that I had
a headlight out!
Don't get me wrong...I would have been WELL under the limit if a blow test had been issued, but who wants to deal with the hassle? We decided to leave my car at my work, just down the road, and come back for it this weekend. Then, as we pulled into the lab parking lot, I changed my mind. I got out of the car and told Kevin that this would be 80 miles times TWO cars to remedy the situation. Nah.
Kevin's idea was the one we decided to try. I would leave my lights on bright, and stay RIGHT on his tailgate. That's what we did. It worked out fine, and nobody was the wiser. I was so far up his butt that if he had hit his brakes real hard, there would have been issues. He didn't, so we didn't. PHEW!
I got to Mom's to pick up the girls, and noticed that SOME PERSON NOT NAMED HERE (amber amber amber) was parked in MY spot! I SO threatened to have her car towed. She kept texting her friend, not looking the least bit worried. I've got to work on that.
My favorite Aunt isn't coming this weekend, now. Dang. I was excited for them to see the sign. I guess there's always another weekend, right?
I still want to take over Mom's TV on Sunday for the Daytona race. They don't care for Nascar, so I don't know how I'll make that work, but I'm going to try. LOL They have a big screen and HD. I have neither.
OK, I guess I've rambled enough. Time to...umm...I guess I need to...err...I guess I have to sit and recline some more. HA!

About a year ago I was driving to Iowa through Missouri. We ended up staying in Kansas City right by the stadiums. I remember seeing Buffalo Wild Wings in Columbia (?) and I bet that was the one you were at! Glad you made it home safely. I'm in the recliner too right now.

I don't know if there's anybody I love enough to let them tailgate me with their brights on for forty miles. Nope. There isn't. Kev is a good dude.

I thought surely the sign would keep your parking spot safe!
Sounds like you have the BEST weekend planned. Lots of relaxing, sports, relaxing and MORE relaxing! That's my favorite kind of weekend.
Have fun!

Tell your Mom you are throwing a NASCAR party at her house! LOL!
See, what respect I have taught my children. Your just the AUNT.....lol Your there one and only aunt.
You guys can come and watch Nascar. I have a computer or two and an extra TV to keep me busy.
Hope you get your Nascar on the big screen. Maybe promise dinner another weekend for your Mom? LOL
Glad you remedied the headlight situation. Was Kevin seeing stars when he got home from the bright lights? LOL
I love BWW but haven't been in a while. It's twenty minutes away so we never end up there as there are too many restaurants b/w here and there that catch our attention. But they have good food and it's a good place to crowd around with friends.
