The wife has been gone all weekend visiting her folks. I've eaten two frozen pizzas, a pound of french fries, and made some kick-ass chili, and drank a six pack of Coors banquet. I went to see The Hobbit with a buddy, and watched "The Shooter", and a Steven Seagal movie for good measure. I've been on this site for like 3 hours today. I bought gun stuff. And I had my dog in my lap all weekend, giving her table scraps which the wife strongly disapproves of...

This may sound pathetic to many of you, but life has been good this weekend.

What do you attached guys do when you get an unattached weekend, and what do you miss about being a bachelor?

What do you bachelors enjoy most? Let us married guys live vicariously through your stories.............

P.S. Edits:

I didn't have to pick any hair out of the shower drain or the bathroom sinks.
I put a $hitload of salt and hot sauce on all my food.
I left the toilet seat up all weekend in the downstairs bathroom.

I sit on my ass and eat trash when I'm without the fam. It's super exciting stuff.

Pretty much same situation as you this weekend. Wife in town for annual family cookie exchange, me and the dog @ home. Watched zombie movies all evening Saturday nite, drank beer and posted on forum boards.

Son in law and grandson came out today to cut firewood and perforate some paper. Good weekend and looking forward to all the cookies wife will bring home shortly.

My wife and I work opposite shifts...she works nights. So me and dogs live it up and party all week long while she works. Hell...sometimes I have TWO cups of tea in the evening when I watch the tube and I don't even do the dishes til the next morning. Yeah, I know. Hard to believe.

I had a feeling you had a wild side.

This. I was a damn fool and having a family was the only thing that could settle me down.

I'll admit the benefits of marriage far outweigh the misfortunes.

The only thing that changes is that I don't have to chase the hookers out early.

Wait, wait wait...did you say you went to a movie with another man? It had better have been your father or your brother, otherwise...

Hmmm, I wouldn't know.
As of the 19th of this month my Bachelor days were officially ended.
25 years ago.
If it weren't for cardboard pizza(Totinos) and Cheetos I would die when the Mrs is out......

My wife read this thread and commented, "You do all that same shit anyway. It looks like I need to be way more strict with you."
To which I said, "Yeah, but I'm way better looking than most of these guys, so I can get away with more stuff."

Wife is home from town, I missed her. Bonus, she brought cookies(about 6 dozen[Score]) and is washing the clothes I forgot about. Married life is much better than bachelor life. Except for the 40lbs I blame her gourmet cooking for.[Flower]

it is all about the corn dogs, or peel and eat shrimp (the wife doesn't do seafood...truly her only fault)

I have been seperated going on 2 years. Ive lived in my new place for about 4-5 nonths now and i have only used the stove once lol. I eat out alot unless i can convince people to cook dinner lol. I can cook alot of stuff but choose not to.

I avoid eating out for health and $. I'm very happy to eat strange things and primarily a lot of basically raw basic things. So a can of peas and mackeral in a can for lunch. Sandwhiches galore. Lots of Oikos greek yogurt (tasty as hell.) Raw carrots/broccoli dipped in peanut butter. Ramen with frozen veggies, hard boiled egg, and teriyaki sauce is a big night.

I can cook fancy, but again becomes a matter of the time it takes, not to mention trying to cook for one vs 2-4. (Almost same dishes for one meal vs a few people and leftovers.)

I'll just say this... Yesterday, awesome hotwings from Wing Wagon in Conifer, Beer, and football... No one to tell me I couldn't or shouldn't, but then again, like I do almost every night, I slept alone. Meh, someday I'll get to that bridge and cross it, but until then WEEEEEEEEEEEE! [Coffee]
