Who Are You In Real Life? Part 1

Having an anonymous forum with so many
friends is really interesting. Does it
ever make you wonder who people are
intheir real life? I don't mean like
posting your adress or personal info. but
what do we all do? What jobs do we have?
what hobbies? This is part 1 in a series
(if you all like answering, if not it is
liek a pilot TV show that crashes and
burns)
So here is the question:
What do you do for a living?

I get to sleep in on either Saturday or
Sunday. My DH takes one of those mornings
for himself to sleep in. If i am not
teaching, then a typical weekend starts
with an exciting round of laundry washing!
Next, comes the bread bake off. Lunch
and naps for the kiddos, and if I am
lucky, a nap for me too! Afternoons
usually include a bike ride, hike, trip to
the park, etc.
Sunday morning begins with an early trip
to the grocery store whilst the pious are
praying at church (Sunday is Heathen's day
at the grocery store!) Then back home for
a full day of National Public Radio and
gardening. Car Talk, Prarie Home
Companion, Speaking of Faith, Splendid
Table, This American Life and living on
earth. A beautiful dinner while listening
to "Brazilian Fantasy" on the Jazz station
and a glass of wine with my DH after the
children are in bed.
Once every month or so we are lucky enough
to get a sitter and will go listen to my
brothers swing band play and get a little
dancing in.
What can I say, we are hellions!

Well,
This summer has been packed with visitors
every weekend, or we have gone away for
the weekend. It is amazing how many
people want to come visit you when you
live at the beach!
But any other weekend is spent on our
boat. (If it's nice) We go fishing or just
putting around on the intercoastal. We
usually either have my parents or my
brother and sil over for dinner or we go
to one of their houses.
Other than that, we rarely go out with
friends and if we do, its on Friday and
then we usually stay in Saturday.
We turned into boring people when we moved
down here

Saturdays during the summer I go and teach
music lessons or do an art show. Sat.
evening is "game night" with our friends;
we get unsober, and play Scrabble or
boggle or Scattegories or something, end
up watching SNL then...Star Trek. Reruns
are at 1am on Saturday nights. Sunday is
a rehearsal day for music, and then Sunday
night my bf and I have our "date" night-we
eat at either the Chinese or Indian
buffet.
Wish we had a boat, though.

I sleep in on Saturdays. Sometimes, I get
up and walk up the street to the grocery
and buy some bacon so I can make myself
bacon and eggs. That's rare, though. I
usually have a bowl of cereal, clean up
the house, do a puzzle while I watch my
Golden Girls DVDs. After my husband comes
home, we go out or go to our parents.
On Sunday, we sleep in, maybe grab some
breakfast at Cracker Barrel, and spend the
day cleaning or watching TV. Then I cook
dinner and we eat together and go to bed.

Saturday morning during term time I go to
band (when I can get out of bed early
enough) and that finishes at 12. I come
home after that and do some chores around
the house then maybe go into town for a
bit in the afternoon or go to boyfriends
house. Saturday night we either go out
somewhere or have a night in, and Sunday I
wake up a bit late watch rerun of
Hollyoaks then go to work, and the night
we usually meet friends in the pub.
I prefer weekdays.

My weekends I stay up really late Friday
and Saturday and sleep in sat and sun.
Fridays nights we go out to dinner with
our AA friends and hang out. Then the rest
of night we usually hang out with one of
our friends. We go to the movies, work on
the Cammaro, go swimming, have a BBQ, or
just hang out with my lil bros or his
family.
Saturdays same thing, we hardly are alone
for very long. We are usually out with
friends. Each weekend is different.
Sundays are very lazy. Laundry and house
cleaning. We rent like 3 movies and eat
and watch movies all day. Then make dinner
and got to bed. Life is full. No kids
either so it makes life simple.

Hm, weekends.
Well, the first full weekend of every
month, I go down to a christian camp
called Vanderkamf. There, myself and about
50 other people dress up as
medieval/fantasy character like elves and
warriors and things, and then we run
around smacking each other with weapons
made out of foam. This is called Kingdoms
of Novitas, and it is a boffer LARP.
Boffer is the name for the foam weapons,
and LARP stands for Life Action Role Play.
It's like Dungeons & Dragons in real
life, and lasts for Friday, Saturday and
Sunday.
Every other weekend (not Novitas ones
though of course) I go with about 20
different (some the same) friends on the
campus and we all dress up as vampires and
do the Vampires: the Masquerade LARP for
one night.
The one or two weekends a month that I'm
not doing either of those is usually taken
up with other club activities. We're...
crazy active.

If one of Rowan's grandmothers watches her
I go and sleep at Nathan's house (if his
silly band doesn't have a show). We play
super nintendo, or gamecube or we watch
movies and Home Movies reruns (best show
ever). If we are adventurish we go out
behind his house and sit by the train
tracks and watch them pass or walk the
tracks. Yeah we're losers. If I stay
home and he comes over we cook and eat.
We play our favourite Man Man songs, me
piano and him melodica. We just do
whatever I guess. If I've got nothing
else to do on weekends I'll take Rowan and
get on the bus and go all over town
staring at people and eves dropping. In
July we mentioned how great it would be to
just take off with no real plans and go
somewhere we've never been, then did that
within the next 35 hours. We went to
Niagara Falls with just a loaf of bread
and some peanut butter, some cash, and
lots of cigars and cigarettes. That was
just one weekend though, normally I don't
do anything exciting.

If its nice and weather permits, we are
out riding motorcycles somewhere. We ride
up to the mountains and wander through the
town shops or we may ride through a couple
of counties to a lake site. Just get out
amongst our friends and ride motorcycles!
If its not nice out, we hang at home or
visit with friends! Weekends are for FUN!
