The Friday Night That Wasn't

'Twas Friday night and all through the house, not a creature was stirring not even a mouse. The table was clean and the counter was clear, in hopes that friends soon would be there.

The yard was empty, not a soul to be found. Just where are the children that love to run around? No yelling, no laughing, no squealing to be heard, to think children were being that quiet is just absurd.

I ran to my window to see why it was so quiet, when what to my wondering eyes did I see? No cars in the driveway and no one to be found, why where on earth could everyone be?

It is Friday night, certainly everyone knows. I'm missing my friends and know it shows.


SURPRISE!!! I hijacked the blog. (I being Wendy.) I tried to be a little creative and those few lines wore my brain out so I didn't quite go with the poem the whole way, but you get the point. I figured since we had too much fun to blog last week that I would do a blog this week about not having a Friday night. I know lots of people had other things going on tonight, like "The Greatest Show on Heaven and Earth" (did I get it right Missy?) Personally, I had to work so I missed out on the show. Somebody better tell me how great it was and how cute so and so looked and what what's his name did that was funny. I would hate to miss out on the highlights.

Don't forget tomorrow is the Christmas Bazaar at CPC. I'm planning on getting out of bed in time to shop a bit before I have to be at work. Notice I wrote planning...so hopefully I make it. Some mornings it is hard to talk myself out of bed, but I really want to see everyone's creativity at work. .oO(Must figure out something(s) crafty to make for next year...if I start in January I could have a big inventory...)

And now *Drum roll please*...we only have 6 days left 'til we get to party at Missy's house and go watch New Moon!! Wooohooo. It is probably a good thing we couldn't do Friday night because we would have spent the whole night talking about New Moon. Can we get a moment of silence for the Rob Patz fans? (Personally I don't get it...sorry ladies.) Also, ladies have you smelled Bath & Bodyworks newest fragrance? (It is called Twilight Woods.) You can view it online by clicking here, but sadly there is no scratch and sniff feature so please keep your noses off your monitors you will just have to visit the store to smell. The packaging is lovely though. It makes me feel a little dreamy. I bought some of the body wash and body splash the other night...sadly so far no sparkly vampire has come to visit me or any werewolf for that matter.

So how did you spend your Friday night? Inquiring minds want to know. (Really, I'm just nosy.)

I LOVE IT! You made me smile. a lot.
My Friday was spend being annoyed with myself for all the things I failed to do for the Bazaar. And then trying to fix, do, and manage.
I did miss having my house open to the public.
Thank you for blogging. Loverly.

And btw, New Moon!!! Aaahhhhh! So excited. Think I'll go watch some New Moon stuff online.

I was preparing for the Bizaare. My hubby went out with his boyfriends and I managed to get the children in bed EARLY so I could work on my painting...the Twilight painting in particular. lol. YAAAAAAAY for Thursday! Omgosh Omgosh HOLY COW I'm excited!

Wendy I love what you did. I love your writing and I love you. And I am sending Brian to Bath and Body Works to get me that Twilight Woods perfumey stuff. It doesn't matter if I don't wear it, I just NEED it.

Great and fun post! Love it!

Thats hilarius Wendy! Love it!

I have to admit that when I saw on facebook that you had blogged about friday night, i felt a little gipped suddently. I thought maybe everyone went over late and I missed out on the fun. SHEWWW, glad I didn't miss any fun!

The show was fun. My son being the brillant child that he is, did his little frog bouncing thing and fell over on his head. It made me laugh right from the front row where the children are supposed to be watching me for cues.
Lana was adorable of course in her black leotard and shiny sequin skirt.

Christmas bazaar...AWESOME! I got prizes for myself. MYSELF! At first I felt a little selfish, but then I figured, Hey I work hard and my friends worked hard to make things, so there.

Looking forward to seeing all of you lovely people Thursday night!!!

Aww, thanks ladies. I'm glad everyone enjoyed the blog. My plan was to wait until people "discovered" the blog...and I'm a bit too impatient for that, lol.

Bazaar~Fabulous! I enjoyed it. Thanks to those who planned it (Crissy) and to those who had goodies for me to look at and buy.

Missy~Thanks for the rundown on the show. I feel a little less left out now.

Melissa~I love you too. Thanks for loving my writing. I love your painting.

Only a few more days 'til the PARTY! I can hardly wait. I kept hearing commercials on the radio to win tickets to the premier, but only 4 tickets...I couldn't do that. How could I choose only 3 of you to go with me? Terrible, just terrible.
