Another Saturday night...

Hello Stephen,

It's after midnight, I'm wide awake, and slightly bummin' because I want to go out and have some fun.  However, the definition of the word "fun" differs greatly between Pete and I.  We always go do things that HE wants to do, that HE considers "fun," and that I am usually not too enthused about doing.  So, I'm wide awake because of a 2 hour nap I took earlier, and I'm sitting beside him using the regular computer while he uses his work computer.  Thus ends another boring Saturday night.  We did go see a play tonight, though, at the local community theater that Pete often goes to when he's in plays.  It was "Sylvia," which was all about a dog (played by a woman), who changes the whole relationship between a man and his wife.  It is funny. I guess it was written in the 90's for Sara Jessica Parker, (and people joked that it should have been about a HORSE)...but apparently it did pretty well on Broadway.

Anyway, I wanted to go out to a place called "Dave & Buster's," which has all sorts of fun video games, skee ball, air hockey, and all that fun stuff.  I like DOING something, not just sitting in a theater seat in the dark for 2 hours, ya know?  I want to get up and get busy having some FUN.  It seems that all we ever do is go sit somewhere, with or without other people, and eat.  I am bored with that.  Pete likes sedentary stuff, a lot more than I do.

I would rather go to the CASINO to walk around, watching other people play and win, then blow a couple bucks to play some fun games, and just enjoy other people having fun too.  But, he's not a fan of the casino.  I don't go there very often, either, (I am a very frugal human), but sometimes it is a very welcome diversion.  I mean, there's not really much to do in Pittsburgh other than SIT in a theater, SIT at a baseball game, SIT at a restaurant, EAT EAT and EAT, and then there's always "go shopping."  But that's it.  There are days when I actually want to go BOWLING, ya know?  Physical activity.  Playing air hockey is physical activity.  Going to a bar and playing POOL or DARTS is a physical activity, but we never go to bars to do that either.  SIGH.

Soooooooo anyway....I guess tomorrow I'll just take the 2 mom's to the craft show down the street instead.  But the whole point of wanting to GET AWAY from the mom's, is NOT to bring them ALONG.  I wish I had some friends here, but I don't.  I feel very lonely sometimes, because I am stuck in this house, with 2 women who drive me nuts, all the damned time.  If I didn't have my DOG, I'd be bored to death.  Pete works all the time, so he's home in small doses, and so I'm left sitting here twiddling my thumbs a lot, wishing I could get the hell out of here.

Well, I guess I'll go search online for some "casino" games to play or something.  LAME.

I hope your Saturday night has been more fun than mine has.

Bye for now.

Love, Rebecca
