Saturday Night Fever Meets This Is Your Life — by Steve Nadis
You can learn a lot about a person by the way he (she) spends their Saturday nights. Here’s what I did last night: First I watched Lassie (the 1994 remake) with my older daughter. Then my wife and I watched the last act of the 40-Year-Old Virgin. I do not bear much resemblance to the character portrayed by Steve Carrell in that (the “Virgin”) picture, except for the fact that I take my bicycle everywhere. I never thought bicycle riding was so weird but in that movie it was taken as a sign of true deviance. The resemblance between me and Andy Stitzer ends there, with the bike habit, as I do not own Iron Man dolls and other superhero collectibles, nor do I work in a consumer electronics store (as a stockboy or as a floor manager). I think I’ve already said more than enough on the subject. But getting back to my original point, that’s how I spent Saturday night. I’ll stand by my record, will not shrink from it, and am, in fact, proud of it. What did you do?

I wrote about my Saturday night in my blog. I did lots of Christmas shopping! It was fun this year in particular. I loved Lassie as a child.
Thanks Anonymous. It sounds like we both know how to live it up.
There was a whole lotta washing and drying taking place at Flubberwinkle castle on Saturday night. The high point of the evening was the folding and ironing!
TV, heavy metal music and organ practising were the background music/effects, all emerging from different rooms.

xmm,
went to a girl cousins nameday home party.
had three red vodkas with ginger ale or was it 7-up.
commented on all the girls cleavages ,
there were quite many under the age of 30,
mrs zardoz ended that pretty quick.
conversation loomed ominisouly on babies
and kids in the house, and how cute they all were.
got cornered to take cute pictures of the kids
and miraculesely they cooperated.
spent 45 min. with my best man quoting
bumper stickers,
(see you snake were part of my saturday night.)
all we could come up with is "THAT LIFE IS ROAD"
and a man to man coversation usually leads
to cleavages, mrs zardoz agreed .
and i promptly complimented her , on hers.
bottom line :
shoul”ve had only one red vodka
because the 16 miles back weren”t the safest i”ve driven.

Cleaned up vomit provided in truly astounding quantities by my daughter. (She is better today).
Ummmm Snake? That first comment was me! I went gift shopping. I love Lassie. How did I miss I wasn”t logged in? Yessirree, I”m the original party girl here….”cause I don”t look like Brittany Murphy for nothing! Although..she may have a little wilder fun than I….or maybe……more than a little…….alot more?
You should get out more, FW! Doc you win the prize for the most mundane Sat. night on record (glad to hear she is better!), whereas it sounds like Z. had the most diverting evening among this sedate crowd.
Strike that last comment. I forgot to mention the wild orgy I went to after "Lassie."

I win the prize! I win the prize! I spent Satruday night working. And I am very proud to be able to report that due to my incredible diligence, not a single server crashed all night. How’’s that for mundane, boring, pedestrian, God I need a life?
Don”t put yourself down, Roses. What you did was really heroic, sacrificing your own Saturday night so that the rest of us hedonists could live it up as we surely did.
