I am 3 hours away from all my old friends (and don't really have much in common with most of them any more anyway) and sahm to two DDs under three (including one newborn who was born by section) but I still want to put on a massively OTT outfit, too much sparkly makeup, drink something that is bad for me and dance to terrible music! Me and DP get out about once a week, but I fancy a silly girly night out all of a sudden.
Seriously considering getting dolled up at some point this week and leaving DP with a stock of expressed milk and just heading out to see where the night takes me, but could be a stupid idea given that I know hardly anyone round here and Newcastle is loads bigger than Preston...I used to do it all the time back in the pre DC days, but I suppose I knew the pubs a lot better round there. Also behaving like that is a lot easier when you are a skinny teenager with unlimited energy, as opposed to a chubby mum of two who sees midnight as incredibly late and two glasses of wine as a binge...
