I need a life....away from kids

Its a beautiful weekend, and I've been inside all weekend...I've sat inside all weekend. For two main reasons a) it cost way too much money to do anything, the second the car turns on gas is being used... b)No one to hang out with....I'm not the kind of person to just call up someone and say hey let's go out. and I don't have that many people I can do that with....or that can just pick up and leave at the drop of a hat. I have basically 5 friends, that I actually see and hang out with. 3 of them are married and have kids, young kids so to hang out a babysitter is needed (which is usually me) or talking the husbands into them watching the kids or finding something to do with all the kids. Don't get me wrong, I love my nieces and nephews I have 4 of one and 5 of the other. But I'm always around kids, I work with kids, half the time if I do get to see a friend I'm babysitting, then may get to hang out for a little while. Granted if I didn't babysit, I would most likely hardly see my nieces and nephews. But between that and working with kids, almost everything I do is with kids. It wasn't until recently I realized how much I miss working at DQ. I miss being around adults....people who I can talk about recent stuff about....who aren't so gullible (I know a kid who believes writing on your hand will turn your liver blue...) I want to be more around people who I can show my tattoos to and not have to worry about what will their parents think because they saw these, or talk about my weekend and not have to censor it. and make it so I can say "I went to a bar with some friends".

Babysitting, I have no problem with, and I think I would be a lot happier if I didn't work with kids. and it's not even working with kids...its only working with kids. If I worked at Chuck E. Cheese, I would be around kids but I would still have adults around. Every day, I show up to work, me and their dad exchange causalities, "how are you? fine, you? fine" blah blah blah, then he says goodbye and thats. from 6:15-9. I'm around preteens. Then I either go to babysit (more kids), or come home (alone), Then, if I'm not babysitting I go back, at 2:30-4:30 again preteens, again causalities with dad, go home, and spend the rest of the night alone. I just miss having adults to talk to, away from kids.
