Things I did while my husband went to play Star Wars characters with other grown men

- Locked my keys in my car. I walked down the street, in the rain, and enlisted some guys from the nearest gas station. This eventually resulted in the lovely sound of the door unlocking. Neither would let me pay them.

-Picked up some frozen pizza and a bottle of wine. All for me.

-If you drink and then blog, you are not drinking alone.

-Lit candles in various rooms to freshen over the odor of Man and Dog Working from Home.

-Stared intently into the dog’s eyes and ordered that he drop the dish sponge. Dog looks back with an expression that says Bring it and clamps down.

-I am useless, despite a number of lessons, given with barely contained patience, in How to Unhinge the Dog Mouth.

-Eventually ripped the sponge out and let him eat the remaining bite in his mouth.

-Pajamas and slippers. And dark chocolate.

-Watched the 400th episode of the Simpsons recorded on DVR.

-Now it’s time to curl up and read.

    Every woman should occasionally have a night at home alone! Next time just tell him to take the dog!

    Oh… that’s nice. Did you even take a bubble bath? I do the same once in a great while.
