So last fall, I decided that taking a class on a Sunday was a GOOD IDEA. Which, in reality, it should have been. I would have had all week to do homework, no rushing home from work to change into something more comfy (read: sweats/flip flops), no stuffing my face with food on the way to class before already being tired before class even started.
EVERYTHING about this seemed like a good idea.
Except.
Except, EVERY SUNDAY was FOOTBALL SUNDAY. So every Sunday, The Man and his friends would host football at their home. From the morning game to the last game. Every weekend they rotated houses. But. It was every Sunday. Without fail. This means, food, and football, and refreshments. And by refreshments, I mean beer. And whiskey. And sometimes even wine. (But not for me. Wine does not EVER go with football.)
And I didn’t want to miss out on the fun.
So.
Class starts at 2pm? No problem. I would catch the first few games, eat, have a drink and go to class. EVERY. WEEK. I will even admit to being dropped off at school a time or two because sometimes, I didn’t stop at the one drink. I’m pretty sure the other students in the class thought I had a drinking problem. Whatever. I got an A in the class, because even slightly buzzed, I can bullshit my way through an exam comprised solely of essay questions with the best of them any day of the week. Especially on Sunday, apparently.
I did swear that I would never take a class that was on football sundays again. And I haven’t. I have a Thursday class.
Would you like to know what fun and exciting things are happening on Thursdays?
- Conan O’Brien hosts the Foos
- Fashion’s Night Out
- Foo Fighters in LA
- Vegas (to be fair, I scheduled this before I added the Thursday class)
I hope you chose Foo. Shit I know I would.
I did. I TOTALLY did. 😉
