My Nashville Weekend....

Was a bust...I mean we had a good time...but the reason we went, to go back to Menage's...wasn't so impressive this time around. The crowd was very low, majority of people didn't seem interested in getting to know anyone else. Everyone pretty much stuck close to the person they came with...so, we actually left early.
We just weren't feeling it, you know? I did have fun, dancing, drinking some wine and flirting my little tale off! I got lots of attention in that respect and it was a huge boost to my ego.
It was nice to get away...crossing over a couple of states actually feels like a mini vacation. We try to find fun in everything...hubby kept me laughing the entire trip there and back.
We got a late start Friday afternoon...the trip usually takes us about 7 hours..but for some reason, this time around...it took a little longer...I felt like we were driving forever.
We did make a couple of stops along the way...we stopped at Applebee's for dinner...later on, of course..we had to stop at Wal-Mart...what kind of a trip would it be without that?
In the parking lot....we seen this...I couldn't help but laugh my ass off!


A tractor...pulling a half camper...I guess that is what that was.....

Do you guys know what state I seen that in?

A.) Indiana
B.) Kentucky
C.) Tennessee

Moving on....we got to our hotel around 11 p.m...I did most of the driving, hubby has narcolepsy so bad..he can't drive for more than fifteen minutes without getting drowsy...so, by the time we got to our hotel, I was ready to fall into bed....and only for sleep, mind you...hubby...had other ideas. We did get seperate rooms again...yeah, go ahead and laugh...I am sure some of you are going "What?"..well, if you have been reading and following the saga of my life at all, then you know hubby snores horrifically..and when we travel...we have to get two adjoining rooms..or yours truly would get no sleep, and hubby would be dealing with satan himself, instead of his normal sweet little sexy wife.

Unfortunately..I got sick again during the night...so, I had to call hubby in his room, send him out for some pepto, asprin and 7-up....he came back with all of that, plus some soup...I took the medicine, drank the soup/7-up...I felt better...so, we dressed up and ventured out of our hotel room around noon on Saturday. Of course, we once again went to OpryMills Mall...love that place. I could spend all day there.
We went to this one store, I think it's called the Apple Barn or something like that..anyway, they have the cutest country stuff, as well as all kind of apple products, etc.....they also have a little pastry shoppe where you can buy apple pie, etc..I had the most divine, the most orgasmic tasting apple dumplings with vanilla ice cream...OH MY GOSH....I have not ate anything that fattening, that good in so long...I thought I had died and gone to heaven....if you are in Nashville, you have not been to the mall or in that store...you have got to go try it....it was like going home to Grandma's...hubby had the apple pie....he enjoyed his just as much.

So...later that afternoon...we decided to pay a visit to Nashville's Hustler Store...

I have been in "Adult" stores before, but I must say....Nashville's Hustler store keeps it classy...I loved it. We played around, shopped in there for a half hour or so...I didn't buy anything..although, Hubby pointed out a couple t-shirts for me..but, I'm not really a t-shirt wearing kind of gal...and being a mom of four..I didn't think it would look very nice for me to wear some of the ones he was suggesting.
We went for dinner....no where nice this time around...just to Ruby Tuesday's...so, I could have a salad..after the apple dumplings...I was feeling a little guilty, so I figured, to keep my dieting on track, that I needed to watch my calorie intake for the rest of the day. We went back to our respective rooms and dressed for our evening at the club...Hubby also bought me a bottle of wine..Chataeu St. Michelle Reisling..to take to the club...it was awesome...I only allow myself to have one bottle, every two weeks...to maintain my weight loss...so, being able to drink the wine was nice....after leaving the club...hubby got pulled over by the lovely Nashville police...for drunk driving...lol...he doesn't drink! Had not drank anything...what happened was...he was getting ready to turn onto a one way street, the wrong way! So, I yelled "You can't go that way!"...he swerved right...right into the path of the police officer..so, dude got pulled over and was given a sobriety test....the cop let him/us go....I was scared to death....I had been drinking....he hadn't..I knew they couldn't arrest him...but...to have to take a sobriety test was freaky....I was watching from inside of the car....the cop was doing the shine the light/follow the light test. Hubby later said, the cop asked him if he was drunk, Hubby goes, NO...but your shining that light in my eyes is making me drunk..Good thing hubby doesn't drink..thats all I can say. We went back to our hotel..wrapped up our evening with each other..retired to our seperate rooms.
Sunday...we left around 10:30...stopped in Clarksville, TN for some lunch...and a visit to the Beechhaven winery...then drove (I drove) all the way home...with a brief stop in Terre Haute to pick up my son Aaron....
Yesterday, Monday..at work was extremely busy.....I did get to watch Dancing with the Stars last night, so hopefully that post will be forthcoming...I hope you all had a great weekend....and a great start to your week. We hope to go to Nashville again soon..and Flat/Blissfully Wed..if you guys are reading this....I hope to meet you both on the next go round!
Later....
