This has been one lazy week.
I was supposed to work last Saturday but only lasted a couple of hours in the hellhole before coming home. I don’t like my job but I’ll do it. I get extremely annoyed though when the very basic tools for my job aren’t available. And sick *cough*cough*….Sweety came home to find me and Tiny Dog under the covers. He peeled the blanket off of my face and asked what I was doing home. When I told him “hiding from work” he tucked me back in and went away.
Saturday night we went to a local restaurant/bar. I was meeting a couple of girlfriends from work and Sweety wasn’t going to come but I talked him into it after I got there. They place had a sign up saying they were going to charge $5 after 9 o’clock to watch the UFC fight. (I hadn’t even realized there was a fight that night.) I thought this meant if you got there before then that you wouldn’t have to pay and sent Sweety a text to come up. The bartender tried to collect $5 from us after we’d been sitting there eating and drinking for 2 or 3 hours and that really ticked me off. Sweety spoke to the manager and the people in our group didn’t have to pay. Note to self: go somewhere else for the next UFC fight.
Have I mentioned my love for UFC fighting? For the longest time it was my little secret. Sweety would be away bowling on Friday nights and I’d come home from work and watch a fight channel for hours. He got home one night early and surprised me. He had a genuine look of shock on his face when he saw what I was watching. I like to watch men beat the hell out of each other.
I have a bad habit of staying awake at night until the wee hours of the morning. I watch the television while playing games on my phone. If I try to sleep I twitch around in the dark. But I have discovered a magical cocktail! If you take two generic sleeping pills and two melatonin as soon as you get home? The Sandman bashes you in the head right about the time you get done with showering and brushing your teeth. As an added bonus – when your asshole weenie dog and his yapping little chihuahua friend start losing their minds at 2 a.m.? You will either sleep right through it or wake up long enough to let them out and then fall right back asleep.
Waking up this morning was a complete repeat of last Thursday. Realized the house was STILL clean (holy shit, a week! I’ve kept up with things for a week!), fed the Oliver and tucked Tiny Dog back in bed with me. I did wake up long enough to have a sandwich. Then I went back to bed while things digested.
The sandwich?
On Sunday we went to a friend’s house for the SuperBowl and I came home with a bowl of her spinach dip. I love me some spinach dip. This morning’s sandwich was spinach dip on good bread.
I’m going to have another now.

I love posts like this. Thank you. And I wish I’d seen Sweety’s face when he caught you watching UFC

I’m glad & you’re welcome. Sometimes I have a little brain dump, look at the words on the screen and wonder “why am I posting that?” This was one of those.
I’m remembering that I started blogging as a way to basically talk to myself!
Sweety’s face was priceless. His voice even rose as he asked, “What the hell are you watching? Are YOU watching that?” I pointed out that it had to be me since the dogs couldn’t run the remote.
LOVE the sound of that Spinich Dip…YUMMMMM! I’d like to make me a sandwich, too….Also, I’m glad that Tiny gets tucked in the bed with you–That must make her SOOOO Very Happy….!
What are those intials HFC ?? I am unfaniliar with what that is…..?
I had to laugh when you said you like to watch men beat each other up….Have you seen “THE FIGHTER” Yet? You Will Love It!!!

I swear, I think Tiny Dog would starve to death if I just kept her in the bed because she won’t get up as long as I’m in there. She and I slept a looooong time today! She’s a nice little heater. lol
UFC is Ultimate Fighting Championship. It’s kind of like martial arts, boxing and wrestling all in one.
I haven’t seen The Fighter yet but I want to! The only thing I like more than men beating each other up is good looking men beating each other up! I am a Mark Wahlberg fan…ahem.
I think the spinach dip was a wonderful trade off for the mexican dip. Which is kick ass spread cold on warm toast in the morning.

oooo….I haven’t tried the mexican dip on toast! I make a cold sandwich with it too.
Going to make some cheese toast now. Heh.
A spinach dip sandwich?? That’s awesome.

Mucho awesome! I’m sad it’s all gone.
I knew that you liked UFC a lot from the way you celebrated when Lesnar lost; but I didn’t know that it was a “secret” from Sweety. Catching woman watching a MMA marathon is almost the same as coming home and finding her watching porn. Unexpected; but cool.

lol Sweety also compared it to catching me watching porn!
I’ve been out of the closet about it with Sweety for awhile. It’s kind of liberating because now he’ll take me to the bar to watch the fight!
Sounds like a yummy sandwhich!!! My beagle could stay in bed forever!!!!!!! That crazy lil dog loves to keep me warm and heck who am I to turn her down when hubby is traveling ALL this past week and ALL this freaking coming week!! That so sucks big time!!! But since I’m a little attached to him and plus I don’t want a JOB, I’ll just keep on keeping on while he travels. I think I’ll write a blog post about our first meeting/date ha ha!!! It involves lots of adult beverages um well before we were true adults! ha ha Have a great weekend and I’m still ticked you have a cafe at your public library, just not fair at all!!!

Oh, yes! Please do a “how we met” post! I love those.
Nothing like watching a couple thugs beat the hell out of each other. The part that worries me most is you know little kids have to be watching this and will get the idea that assault and battery is a great pastime.

What? Does this mean it’s not okay when I lock the boys in the garage and tell them only one gets to come out? I thought we were having some family bonding time…
