I am. I've just got back from a very rare works lunch at the pub. Lots of people in there and who look they are there for the eve. Feeling a bit FOMO and meh at the thought of being at home tonight. My DC will be in too but they do their own thing. I will have a hot bath, face mask, cuppa then bed. At the same time, I am feeling thankful that I know I wont be waking up with a hangover tomorrow or hanging all day, I hate both of these. I am also dieting so no drink will help towards my weight loss and I wont be spending money too.

Still cant help feeling a little FOMO though.

I am - nothing new there but I also can't drink as offered to pick DH and his friend up from a gig about 17 miles away.

I am, but I'm in every night. Can't remember the last time I actually went out for a drink. Sad

Me, but I’m dog sitting for a friend so at least I get to look at a different four walls and someone else’s telly.

I am but am going to brownies with dd. I'm an owl there. Will be too knackered for anything else. At a family party tomorrow night in my hometown but wish I was staying in. Will enjoy it once I'm there.

In tonight. Curry out of the freezer and glass of something whilst I watch Ghosts.
I'm out tomorrow.

teaandtoastwithmarmite · 07/10/2022 14:53

I know what you mean though. I get fomo when I see others going out

MisgenderedSwan · 07/10/2022 14:54

I'm in and looking forward to it! Manic week at work. Looking forward to a takeaway and putting my feet up.

Also love the no hangover thing!

@teaandtoastwithmarmite I see others going out and feel like I want to be doing that too. Then, when I am out in a busy music type pub and it gets to around 11pm-12am and I'm a bit wobbly from drink, I can think of nothing better than pjs, a cuppa then bed. It's like I'm happy to go out for a bit, see what's going on, decide the drinks are overpriced and I'm surrounded by drunks and generally that the pubs around my town are rubbish, then go home at 10pm content that I am actually not missing out on anything really !

I know tonight once I am snug in bed I will be thankful I've had a quiet and peaceful eve and no hangover tomorrow

I'm in tonight, DH is going to the next town to see a band.
The weather is atrocious so I've got the wood burner going and I'm pondering fish and chips or ordering a curry.
No real plans other than cuddling Ddog on sofa and watching whatever I feel like on the telly.

vodkaredbullgirl · 07/10/2022 15:24

I'm out tonight, 3rd night shift.

LesLavandes · 07/10/2022 15:34

At home. Will watch the last 2 episodes of 'The Suspect'

I’m always in! I’ve lost the love for going out in the evenings. Loved it in my teens/20s, was sort of forcing it by late 30’s/40’s. Now in my 50s I just don’t bother. I know it won’t be fun and I don’t want to waste my time and money! So I think FOMO wears off as you get older!

mytearsricochet · 07/10/2022 22:28

I am. I would love a night out actually but my friends are all scattered across the country rather than local to me so it’s hard to arrange things these days.
