Alone on a Friday Night Beats a Bad Date!!


I don't mind being home alone on a Friday night considering some of the downright awful dates I have had in my lifetime.

Let me give you an example! (Don't worry! I won't charge you for it. This one is on the house! LOL )

Some years ago, a friend of mine was dying to introduce me to this gentleman she knew. We both had boys about the same age and she thought it would be a great match. Her friend was having a barbecue and she asked if she could bring my and I along. He said the more the merrier so I loaded up my and came along for the ride.

He was a nice enough guy but I could tell he was not my type from the moment we drove up and heard the crying in your beer country music playing.

But I decided to make the best of it. My liked his sons so he had someone to play with and there were many people there I knew so I figured I'd make the best of it and enjoy the barbecue.

We were all out in the backyard when I needed to visit the ladies room and asked if I could go inside. No problem, he replied and then gave me the directions through the house to the facilities.

Every room in this guy's house was covered with dead animals. It was a taxidermy dream. Everywhere I turned, there was a dead animal staring at me. A stuffed bobcat eyed at me in the bathroom!!

As I was trying to find my way out as fast as I could, the homeowner came in and asked me what I thought of his home. I replied that the decorating was quite interesting while trying to be as nice as I could be.

He said I really should check out the 's room as he had decorated it in 101 Dalmations.

Instantly, my mind's eye pictured stuffed dead puppies everywhere so I quickly made a beeline outside...

Sometimes it's just safer to stay home!!

I was afraid he might pull my leg off and stuff it!! LOL

Nah, I don't think he had the slighest idea that I thought the entire house of dead animal eyes watching me from every angle was the least bit creepy. His kiddos' room was probably done with all the cute 101 dalmation sheets and such that was out at the time but I just couldn't take the chance of it being 101 dead puppies in there!

LOL Pen! You are just toooo funny!

Corrie, I would have ran out of that house as fast as I could too! Anyone that would want dead animals all over their walls has GOT to be weird!

It's a fun party game...Wikipedia actually has a good write up with examples...and I noticed awhile ago that the Christian book store is carrying the Bible edition...haven't tried that one though.

Nothing runs a guy off faster than having your ex over... especially if the ex is dead and stuffed literally in the corner!!

I could handle the occasional deer head with antlers or elk on a fireplace mantle in a den perhaps since I do not have anything against hunting as long as I don't have to do it but when your entire house has something dead on every wall and table... umm no thank you!!

Can you believe that Bob Hope was first offered the lead in that movie that eventually went to Cary Grant?!! Jack Benny and Ronald Reagan also passed on it before Grant getting it!

So it's a card game that uses words and phrases. I think I would love it from what I have read. However, I know my family wouldn't play it with me. They refuse to play scrabble or cards with me so I am stuck with Dance, Dance Revolution Until Your Feet Feel Like Falling Off!
