Well, today I was a lady who lunched with two friends, but all of us are employed, and only two of us were married (Not me… at least not yet!)… We’re off the mark a bit from Wikipedia’s definition, but I think that’s a good thing. 😉
Are you a “lady who lunches?” If not, would you want to be?
I’ll take the old-money, well-off, slim stuff… but the “unemployed” part throws me for a loop! I think I function better when I have more stuff on my plate, and without kids or anything to occupy me in the day, I think I’d go crazy without a job!
Lunch
Today I met up with my friends (and former coworkers) Ryan and Ashley for lunch downtown.
I enjoyed a roast beef and provolone cheese unwich (a sandwich made on lettuce rather than bread) from Jimmy John’s.
We had a nice time catching up over yummy food.
Ashley got married in the beginning of January and I haven’t seen her since her wedding. I loved hearing about her newly married life.
Ryan ran her first half marathon at the end of February and I was anxious to hear about her race. She did awesome! We’ll both be running in a 10K on Saturday which should be lots o’ fun. 🙂
Q & A Update
Last night I took a lot of time revamping my Q&A page. I added a bunch of the questions I received multiple times during the Ask Me Anything week to the page and I think it’s a lot more comprehensive. I hope you enjoy! As always, if you have any questions, I’d love to hear from you at pbfingers@gmail.com.
Tonight
After work today Ryan and I are taking a mini road trip (Does a one-hour drive count as a road trip?) to Winter Haven to check out some scuba diving equipment that my dad found on craigslist.
The pricing seems great and we’re anxious to see if the stuff looks good in person. The couple is about our size so hopefully everything will fit and be functional.
We’re hoping to get some decent scuba gear as the summer approaches because we want to be able to dive a lot!
Are you a fan of craigslist? Have you ever bought anything from someone who posted something on the site?
I love craigslist. I’ve found three apartments and a couch on craigslist. I’m quite a fan!

My bf gets a lot of stuff on craigslist. Ever since the craigslist killer I’ve been scared of it haha.

I bought lots of wedding stuff of off craigslist.
I would love to be a lady who lunches. I much rather stay at home and do nothing right now. Can you tell I need a vacation!
homecookedem says
I don’t think I would ever want to be a lady who lunches……. I know many women would, but I really prefer staying at home or having people over to my house to visit! 😉
Kelly says
I agree with Em above…I don’t think I am a “lady who lunches”…but you looked liked you had a GREAT time!

Andrea says
I’m glad to see other adults who wear braids in their hair like me! (If 22 is considered an adult…)
Do you use bobby pins to hold it in?
peanutbutterfingers says
yep! two bobby pins!
Julie @ Pickley Pear says
I am a lady who lunches! I am unemployed, not by choice (Michigan auto industry downsizing…), and in agreement with your comment, I am going crazy without a job 🙁 I have learned to enjoy the time off, time to reorganize closets, and move at my own pace, and go to lunch (occasionally). Obviously, I am not the Wiki definition.
Love the JJ Unwich!!
peanutbutterfingers says
i hope you find something soon but it’s great that you’re enjoying your time off! i NEED to go through my closets…
kbwood says
