Self-indulgent

[dreamflower]

Well, my husband's off to a long awaited healing touch retreat/seminar for the next four days. Rather than feel sorry for myself, I decided to treat myself. I printed out the updates to some of my favorite stories, and took them with me to the Cracker Barrel, where I feasted on chicken livers, hashbrown casserole, baby carrots and fanfic. There is just something so *decadent* about going out to eat at a restaurant, alone, with reading material! I took my time, and finished up eating just as I finished up the stories. When the waiter asked did I want dessert, I told him "No thanks. I've run out of story." Left a nice tip--he was very attentive!

In a few minutes, I'm going to take a nice long shower, and then I'm going to stay up as late as I want on the computer. Sure, I have to work tomorrow, but what the hey? I'll just be sleepy!

Then I'll just have three more days to get through till my sweetie comes home.

Sounds like you had such a nice time darling. It's always nice to just go out like that and spoil yourself.

Hope the stories were as enjoyable as your evening out :)

HUGS*

I do believe in spoiling myself once in a while; it's harmless enough. And the stories were lovely. But I will probably be having to buy new ink for the printer before the weekend is over, LOL!

What a lovely evening. Everyone needs a night like that once in a while. I hope you enjoy the rest of the evening and manage to find some way to entertain yourself for the rest of the time your husband is away.

I hope I will, too. It's going to be a long few days. They're not allowed phones, etc., as it's a retreat type thingy, so I can't even look forward to talking to him in the evening. But I have a long list of things I want to do, such as work on fics (big surprise) get some decluttering done, maybe some sewing, and I'll probably watch the DVDs of LotR while I work on knitting Pippin's scarf. Also, I work for a few hours both Sat. and Sun. which will also help.
