Is anybody still interested in going out Saturday Night? I've heard that a few can't make it, and I'm wondering if anyone is still "in".

you know Tania, I have been really puzzling about these "girls night out."

I love the idea of making friends with other women riders, but I am just not the "crazy go drinking and dancing kind of person...."

Except that I will have my house full with kids and family from out of town tomorrow night, I would like to come over and get to know you better...

but I probably won't be doing the "let's go out and party" kinds of get togethers...

so, it's not that I am wanting to be unfriendly or anything....just isn't my scene.....never has been...hope you understand...

Thanks, Sacheri for bringing up this point. As I mentioned to you, I'm glad you did. In no way are we wanting to alienate anyone. Ladies Night is as little or as much as anyone wants it to be. It is a chance for the girls to meet one another, and enjoy each other's company!
I am happy that four girls who didn't know each other, came together, and left that evening with new friendships. It looks as if though there are a few girls out there who are in the same situation, stuck at home, with feeling that there is no one with whom they can bond. Life happens, and people fall into ruts. Being new to Colorado, even though it has been four years, it was difficult for me to form new friendships because people at our age already have friends from their school days, or devote all their time to their families. People are friendly enough, but there usually is no contact other than a hello on the street. Ladies Night out, whether it be dinner, dancing, pizza and a movie, a show, or whatever, is for us all. All anyone has to do is reach out to the girls here and say, "Hey, I need some "me" time!" Heck, it doesn't even have to be a night out. We could get together for lunch on the weekend, or just meet up for some shopping at the outlet stores!
For me, because I am just to new to join a ride, it gives me an opportunity to meet who is out there, learn from them, and gain some motivation to overcome any obstacles that can discourage me from riding. There seems to be a handful of newbies out there, who need to be assured that their setbacks are all a part of learning. I am glad that I already have met new friends, and mentors!
It has been tough trying to get as many people as I can to join the Ladies Night, and it is tough trying to cater to the variety of tastes out there. Please, if an opinion is asked, don't think that you don't have a right to give your own. I had a poll going on , some didn't see it, some didn't care what we did, others felt that because they weren't familiar with the area, couldn't contribute. Because of that, only 4 voted. We had an interst in coming together, and even though there was a bunch of see- sawing going on, we made it happen! Believe me, it was painful, but worth it. So, be it a group of 8, 4 or 2, please take the opportunity to come together. You'll be glad you did! :up:

Tania...eh. I'm still interested ...I do have family in from out of town and I think they are leaving this pm.... I can commit yea or nay sometime later depending on the days events.. :D Just post what's going on and I will try and make it ;) Hopefully more can come this time...such a diverse group of tastes eh?
I'm not the 'party girl' either so I hear what you are saying shacheri :lol: , the ladies nite part I was a ~huge~ stretch for me as I stopped going 'out' long ago, and am about as antisocial as they come :D but I had a fantastic time!! It was definitely a diverse group with us 4! Tania, Thorn and Sully Kick ass! With such a diverse group and different tastes, ..everyone should voice their ideas on what interests them...and perhaps we can work something out eh? Can't please everone all the time, but if there are other ideas out there then it could be fun even if its a stretch from your 'normality'...normalcy...normalness :crazy: (whatever the word is :shock: )
Just like Tania I've made friends with a great group of girls here as well, I'd always said I have enough friends and don't need anymore, but am so glad I changed that way of thinking...miss out on some great folks with that logic....
Anyway, if you post it, they will come, so let's keep posting and perhaps our small group of girls will grow :bananna: :loop: :cheers:

Hey - the girls I've met form here so far - ROCK! :headbang: :up:

I agree with Tania - Ladies night can be whatever we want it to be... It's a time where we can get together, talk, exchange idea, drink, eat pizza, bowl, dance, anything goes! So definitely - if you're interested, voice your opinion on what types of things you like to do! :)

I'm up for anything tonight, just let me know! :bananna:

Well, the family plans have changed, so it looks like I can cut loose and play tonight as well.

It's 3:40pm now....can we meet around 6:30 or so, maybe we can hook up somewhere by Park Meadows for something to eat, or were we still thinking of Tania's for pizza?

phone number for me is: 303-797-3422

Alright, if anyone cares, we have changed the location! In chatting with those who are CONFIRMED, we will be meeting at Heartthrob at 10175 E Hampden Ave. It's about 1/2 mile east of Yosemite, on the North side at the entrance to a strip mall. From there we will find someplace to eat! I've given out my cell, and my home phones, if anyone wants to join in, gimme a call!

Welp, it just wasn't meant to be...

just got home (7pm) from an errand with my hubby, he's not feeling too good, so I think I will stay put this time...

thanks for the call Tania - next time I will be there!

hope you all have fun!

Tania-I am so sorry I coul not make it, but thank you for calling me. After we too Kailea to the Trick or Treating at the rec center, she felt nothing like napping (couldn't be all that candy, could it?). Anyways, hubby had to work, and I felt horrible asking my parents to take a crabby child yet again (especially since we just got back from vacation, and my dad is getting ready to go to Vegas for a week).
I, for one, have been locked in some form of a black hold since getting married and having a child...one by one, the friends I had fell away, and I fell into parenting. I think I am friendly (tell me if I am not), but I am not a girly person, so I have never been great at making friends. I am all for hanging out when things are able to work out.
Here is something else-I have never been dancing, and the closest I have come to a bar is the place where my hubby works, and my mom was my companion. I would love to go and hang and have fun, but I am super self conscious too....ok ok, I am rambling. Here is my real point:I turned 21 while pregnant (on bed rest) and 22 passed without much notice. My 23 is coming up here in a few weeks,and I am thinking since I have no friends of my own, I might like to hang out with people from here. The real date is the 16 of November, which is a Sunday...I think for going out purposes, i would prefer something where I don't have to work the next day.
If I am rambling and desperate and pathetic, just tell me and I will shut up.

Thank you very much Tania for calling me. I really really wish I could have made it, I have been wanting to be able to do this for some time now. The bad part is that I live in Springs, not to mention my graveyard job which makes any kind of social life hard for me. The good news...... I got a new one and start in about 2 weeks. It's still graveyard, but it's 3 12 hour shifts per week, which means 4 days off..... yay more social time. My point is, I should be able to make the next one hopefully. I like a few others need to make some new friends. The few I do have stem back from 3rd grade. I have to be honest though, as much as I can't wait to meet all of you, I really wish I didn't feel like the only Springs girl. Aren't there any more out there??? Oh well, Denver is not too far. I'll just have to remember to stay decenltly sober lol.. Can't wait til next time girls

Purp, you rambling, desperate, pathetic fool, we love you! I can sympathize with you, and just want you to know that we are there for you! I know, it's tough having a kiddie at a young age. It's too bad that your friends have abandoned you. But, now you have even better ones :lol: looking forward to MAKING you have a good time. Beware, it is easy to fall into the trap of, "Oh, I'll just stay home, I don't wanna go." If you push yourself when those thoughts enter your mind, you'll be happy that you made the effort.

You don't have to worry about being too self conscious on the dance floor. We definitely aren't trying to impress anyone. We're out there having fun, not caring who is looking. The sillier we are, the happier we are! Again, if the bar scene makes you uncomfortable, we'll go elsewhere. But! You don't want to miss out on seeing Sully's dance moves! I'm excited that your birthday is coming up! We'll make it a good/fun/happy one!


AS for you Kawigirl, I know that there are a few girls in the Springs. Now, who says we can't come out your way for some fun, or meet somewhere in between? I know of Sv650 in the North. I told her that I'd like to head out there too. Apparently we'll be milking cows, but hey, that could be fun! One time here, one time there, a change in scenery is good for the soul. Again, we want to make this work for everyone.

I would like to add a few things. I have started thinking...soon there will be a time that I will be a little to rolly polly to go out dancing :hibye: ...but for those of us that will be bigger than a house (yes ladies I have already gained 12 pounds) or those of us that just do not feel comfy doing the boogie on down thing (I do have to say...the girls dance together and if you have not seen this group of goof balls dance...you have not lived!!) we can always meet for dinner...and skip the club thing. While the party girls can still go out dancing...and tell me all the nasty details the next day :lol:

I am up for anything any of you ladies want to do. After our LNO1 I fell in love with Tania, Scully (Sully) and Amazzon!! It was a truly wonderful experience to see 4 different ladies...all in such different places in their lives...and yet it seems to me that the friendships that got started that night are equally as special to each one of us!!

As to the 22 year old that has never gone dancing...I was you at 22...except I had 2 kids ( Yes I know Tania, Sully and Amazzon will never believe that I had not started dancing until 26!!) :lol: . I didn't see it at the time...but looking back now...it would have helped everyone in my family if I had made it a priority to have gone out dancing. Instead...the first time I went to a club was after my divorce (just a hint).

Not to get anymore mushy than I already have...It's the baby hormones :cry: !!! I would just like to say that I really appreciate the friendships that I have with the incredible ladies of this board...and if I can do anything ever for anyone...just ask.

Okay...now I will do the boobie dance to counter act all the hormones...

:boobies: :boobies: :boobies: :boobies:

Tania
Wed Oct 29th, 2003, 04:15 PM
Hey, I LOVE your moves baby, you're the best of the bunch!
You gottem down!

I have to laugh. I just bought my 2yr old a "Baby Dance" music CD, expecting to hear little children belt out Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. I pop it in, and what do I hear?! I hear the familiar thumpabumpa of a nightclub going on, to the tune of Old MacDonald! Mom and tot were hootching it up in the living room, I tell ya!

Sully
Wed Oct 29th, 2003, 04:27 PM

I'm too much of a goof on the dance floor.. I honestly can't be serious at Heartthrob!! :P

Anyone who thinks they're hot, dancing to 80's music, is a tacky loser! We saw a bunch of those, didn't we? Hey! That's not nice. Look what you have my small mind doing now, talking about others, not nice. :twisted:

Don't, don't you want me..... :lol:

Sully
Wed Oct 29th, 2003, 04:41 PM
OMG WOMAN! You are a NUT! :lol:

Personally, I think that people who dance to 70's music are WAAAY HOT... YAH BABY.. OOH BABY.. UH HUH BABY.. GET IT ON BABY.. :lol:

ok.. I like 70's and 80's music.. :cry:

Tania
