Friday night gal

Who blogs at 9:00 on a Friday night? Who?
A girl who has been married almost 8 months and suddenly given a weekend without a husband, has absolutely no idea to do with herself.
I'm SO pathetic.
Jared has headed to Mississippi to help with the relief effort, which I applaud of course - but it's left me on a Friday night, very confused and mostly pathetic.
I sat around for a few hours missing Jared like a little puppy, and then dolled myself up and headed to the video store. I'm wearing my I-kid-you-not "I *heart* Jared" t-shirt, by the way.
Why do I go to the video store? Every time Jared and I go there, we search and search and realize there are very few movies we wanted to see in the first place. So I had the same experience tonight, except I decded to let myself go - free myself from the shakles of wanting to get a movie we both wanted, and tried to find a movie that I could enjoy that Jared wouldn't, strike while I have the chance!
So... I got something I've been curious about for years.... a TOTALLY geeky choice, that Jared wouldn't EVER want to see.
yup. Biggest geek movie EVER. Trekkies. A documentary on how INSANE Star Trek fans are.
As I type this I'm watching an exposee on an entire Star Trek dental office in Orlando Florida. Now some guy is singing in Klingon.
When I went to rent the movie, the over-eager and pretty attractive check-out guy laughed at my selection.
Checkout guy: "a...hah.. a documentary about trek fans. Amusing stuff."
Me: "You've seen this? It's not so bad? I mean I'm not ruining my Firday night?"
Checkout guy: *looks at video, then back at me* "......."
Me: "I mean, beyond the obvious...."
GAG.
It's not that bad, by the way.
You know, I've never gone skinny dipping. I think maybe I'd like to. Not with anyone but Jared, but it might be nice to jump into a big pool in my birthday suit. I just got the urge the other day.. it sounds like SO much fun and I've always been very self-conscious and modest around other people, but the urge struck the other day and then the thought occured "hey, I gots a husband to do that with!" That and I'm in the mood to go swimming.
Speaking of birthday, Jared has not only begun making plans for my birthday present, but also Christmas!
I am SO screwed. I have NO idea what to get him. Last Christmas I made him a Vote For Pedro sweatshirt, and for his birthday I made him dinner and gave him a cheese-making kit. BOTH holidays gave me palpitations. I have nothing I can give him for gifts! Anything he wants, he can get for himself - at least he should. They're over my head. Maybe I'll let him get a vespa someday. Other than that, yeah, I'm still screwed. It's September and I'm already freaking out about Christmas. Joys of married life...
Movie over. Not so bad, although I maybe should have gotten my other choice - Ocar Wilde's The Importance of being Earnest, but that's one I'll see with Jared:)
That's a lovely one. I'll wait for that one. I have seen it - a few years ago,with my mom in the theater, and it was funny and clever, with the awesome eye candy that is Colin Firth.
Oh well, I have two shows tomorrow with my band, I guess I should get some shut eye.
My bed is too big. It'll be too big until Sunday night, when Jared comes back and I'll feel a little less lonely.
SUERCRACK is sooooo paTHEtic!!!
