So today I decided to start making a list of fun things that I can more freely do once I'm a single lady again (or at least a separated one with all the living space to myself). Lots of these he doesn't even care about but I keep them to myself out of self consciousness- here's to unfettered ridiculousness at home for the next year!
To do while he's away:
- Take up new musicals and blare them at top volume in the house, car, while out and about/exercising, etc. Sing loudly with them, play on repeat until I learn all the words.
- Go to operas and musicals all the time! Ok, when budget allows.
- Eat waffles and french toast for breakfast whenever I want
- Hog the entire bed and crank up the heat
- Go to Burning Man
- Less shaving
- Watch my guilty pleasure TV shows at full volume whenever- Project Runway, America's Next Top Model are top contenders
- Indulge in a once-a-week night owl stay up forever binge and then sleep in late. But just one!
- Paint my nails wherever I want without being concerned about the smell.
- Perhaps do a 30-day vegetarian trial?
- Put up a giant cheesy 'vision board' a la Happy Endings (Year of Penny and Vision Boards). Maybe.
- Work on guitar/piano/sing at any time and volume without being concerned I'll break his eardrums
- Art/craft projects that can take up room and last days with just me tripping on them.
- Make my kitchen table a desk. All my desk!
- Enjoy dance workout tapes that are awesome but make me look like a flailing primate.
Well, that looks like fun. If we have to do this separation thing, at least I have some entertaining things to look forward to.
