I think I’ve started something here, so I’m now compiling a complete list of these, including reader suggestions for additional points. See the comments on this posting for the complete list. Have your say and get on the list, if ya like. Have at it.
Having a four-day long weekend planned with exciting things to do with myself, by myself, before a crazy two weeks begins:
An afternoon at the beach, a long ambling bikeride to an old independent theatre for an afternoon matinee, a sleep-in and a DVD day, and a day packed with to-dos to scratch off the list. A bottle of wine. Maybe even two. An expensive steak, a fancy meal. Maybe 2. Maybe 4. Hell, maybe 10. All for me. Because I’m worth it. Because life’s short.

This is my interstellar craft of truth and wit. Buckle up. If you want celebrity gossip, this is not the blog for you. If you want comfortable postings that’ll fill you with happy fuzzy thoughts about the world at large, or self-help guru shit, this is not the blog for you.

1 — 5. If you’re wondering why the list started at #6, it’s because I thought “sleep in, get drunk, masturbate, burp, and wear pajamas for the whole day” were really obvious as a solid lock for the top 5. I mean, really, come on. They’re universal. We’re not proud that we like to be that way sometimes, but we secretly love to do ‘em all. And on the same day? Ha, yeah, score. It’s the Catholic way to sin: In a bunch, so you can be penitent all in one shot and get the guilt over with sooner. I thought it only fitting I take a moment to acknowledge what should be obvious but, in the Puritanical age we sometimes seem to live in, may well not be obvious, in tribute to the dear departed George Carlin, who I know would really understand. –Steff.
6. Eat cold cereal for supper. –Steff, with “and leftovers for breakfast” from an Anon.
7. Saying “My holiday can’t end this soon!” and sleeping in till 8 on a Monday, then casually cycling to work at 11 after an eggs-and-sausage brekkie, and getting home at 8:30, with supper getting on the table around 9:30. Like I did today and tonight. :) –Steff.
8. Rule the tv.
9. Walk around home naked.
10. Leave the toilet seat up (or down if you are a woman).
11. Let the washing up slide a day (or two). –Brian.
12. The food in the fridge is yours and yours alone.
13. Don’t have to “check in” if you decide to take a detour on the way home. –Anon.

Reading in bed as long as you like because the light isn’t disturbing anyone.
let’s not forget the classic.…drinking out of the milk/juice carton because there isn’t someone to bitch about it.
Stay up all night dancing…with anyone and everyone.
not to be a spoilsport, but you don’t have to be single to walk around the house naked — I do it all the time and my husband has never complained!! (I wonder why? :) )
Might be a bit more difficult if you have kids though!!
Being able to have stubble and no one complains about it.
