things to do on your night off

I'm drinking a hard cider and surfing the net.

Hmm, let me see....

- movies (romantic, tear jerker, scary, funny),

- music therapy -- lightens my moods,

- popcorn and/or kelloggs, corn pops cereal :) (good snacks anytime),

- maybe a relaxing bath for an hour?

- surf internet a little,

- the last thing I want to do is READ (unless if I HAVE to).

thanks guys. yes well so far I have been very productive since I last posted. I signed up for financial planning and created a budget--how very un-day-offish

I really want to go watch the sixth sense on netflix, but then Ill probably scare the bejeezus out of myself hehehe

Sixth sense? It's not that scary, I've seen scarier. Geez, you have become soo productive! financial planning? kinda early for 21, isn't it? lol.

Well, have a good night. Don't forget to have fun on your one night off! Try to relax, it does the body good :)

ahaha Im a scare-d-cat tho! I know... I told you Im a busy body. I just watched a chick flick and played katamari so I did relax too :). You have a good night too.

I'm with the hard cider drinker!

financial planning? kinda early for 21, isn't it? lol.

its never too early to get on a financial plan! make your money work for you not the other way around. if you start good financial habits now you can become very successful in life! money invested now for retirement has a long time to grow and compound, you could retire a multi millionaire! kudos for you!

ok i'll step off the soap box now...

When I was (much) younger most of my friends were musicians who would stop by after gigs at 2 am to visit. Or I would go to hear them play and then hit the all night diners with them.

Now I get online, watch weird late night movies, do my grocery shopping at 2 a.m. (no crowds), bake stuff, etc.

Sometimes when I'm in a town like my current contract I hit the casino at about 1 am and play the penny slots. That's when all the really "interesting" people come out.....like the sleepwalker from the hotel who wandered into the casino one night - and apparently slept in the nude!

I played an online game called Second Life. You create a character, chat with folks from everywhere, there are so many different things on there. I spent a lot of time on that game...lol! Also how I met my boyfriend.

Question??

So people who work nights...do you always stay up all night on your days off and then sleep during the day?? I'm possibly getting a night job and I'm married so I would like to at least see my husband on days off.....what do all of you night people do who have families??

It depends on how many days off that I have. If I have 5 days off, then I'll sleep for about 3 hours that first day and stay up as late as I can the last day off. If I only have 2 days off, then I'll keep to the regular up all night sleep all day routine. I am married with kids, and usually see them when I get up. If the kids have a game or something, I'll sacrifice a little sleep to watch. We just make it work.

oh man! I'm so nervous!! I don't have any kids but I am married, and it worries me that working nights may be detrimental to my marriage! I'm not quite sure what to do at this point!
