Sweatpants Thursdays

Cas and I have had a standing date on Thursday nights during the school year. He had said at the end of the summer that he wanted a regular, appointed time during the week to get together- something kind of low-key. We discussed options and came up with Netflix Thursdays. It has turned out to be a pretty great arrangement.

Barring very important interruptions, when it's a standard work week, we get together on Thursday night and watch an episode of something on Netflix. We started with a season of Dr. Who. With that done, we're watching a season of House of Cards. 

Nothing is fancy. We get a sandwich or some quesadillas or something, we eat in front of the TV, and we watch a show together. 

We also dress rather casually. Sweatpants are encouraged, though lately, he has opted for pajama pants and a t-shirt. 

We're both trying to make some better decisions about diet lately, so tonight's junk food by the tube was some Wendy's chili and a baked potato for me and a small sandwich for him, along with a bunch of fruit. 

He has come to my place a few times, but it's easier with his workout schedule if I head there. 

Do you ever have that moment, first thing in the morning, when you try to orient yourself? Okay- I'm at home, in my bed. Good. What day is it? Do I have to go to work today? On Thursdays, I answer that with a smile. It's Thursday. I have a date tonight. 

Here's my food delivery method. Happy Thursday  (and now, happy Friday).
