overlooked and oversexed

Sometimes, especially since my sister moved in, I need time alone.
Now, if you've ever had small children, you understand what I mean when I say that I need time to be alone...and to not be touched. hehe.
Granted, my 'baby' is now 3 years old and is out of the baby stage mostly except for her pudge and her baby lisp. But, still, I'm assailed some days with constant child supervision.

Last night I went out to Denny's.
I took my latest book, "To Kill a Mockingbird", ordered a glass of coke, and a cup of cocoa. I sat and read for 20 minutes or so until I found myself people watching.
We all do it. Even though our mothers told us at one point in our lives to never stare.

I saw two or three aquaintances of mine all dining with men that I know aren't their husbands.
At first I'm floored. Because, after all, it's not some hot date scene, it's Denny's!! Then I'm like all judgemental, then I'm ashamed because I know what it's like and how they probably feel.

I wonder if this is a trend now. Leave your husband with your kids and go on a date. lol.

In other news, I am reading "To Kill a Mockingbird" for the absolute first time. I've read thousands of books, but this one escaped me. I'm not sure why, but I'm reading it and I love, love, love it. Next, I'll see the movie.

Halloween is coming up too. I got invited to my first costume party as well. (I'm celebrating firsts it seems!) I don't know what I'm going to dress up as. I'm either going waaay over sexxed as some vixen and totally go over the top...or I'll go the other way and be a gross disgusting ghoul or something. No lukewarm spue thee out of thy mouth dressing up for Satan's day for me. :)
