What's your ritual on a Thursday night?

Question

Ever since Survivor started six years ago (yes we're fans and missed the opening episode b/c daughter was born that night darn her-jk) but we've put the kids to bed @ 8 and then we chill with wine or beer and gotta have a bag of doritos.

What do you do habitually as a couple? Doesn't have to be Thursday night.

Answer 1

Oooh....I love ritual and routine and I believe when you establish them as a family it's a great way to cement and celebrate the family!



In our home right now, we have a 7 yr old 9 yr old and 17 yr old....so our schedule many times revolves around extracurricular activities.....and the kids are old enough to bring into the routine/ritual.....so we have family movie night every week or two weeks...



We have also recently begun playing scrabble with the teen.....



Nightly we usually gather in the kitchen/sunroom (open to each other) and one of the boys or both play video games and we cook dinner and chit chat.



As a couple we've established a ritual of taking a bath together about once a week when the kids are in bed...it's relaxing and nice not to be in front of a tv or computer!

Answer 2

well, actually we never used to have any - but now our small group of 6 couples meets on Thursday evening to study a topic from God's word, pray for each others' families, and eat together. We used to meet on Sat. evening, but now my husband's only days off are Weds and THurs. The whole group decided to change our meeting date to Thursday so we could be there, too! I bet you didn't think you'd get a serious answer to this, LOL!

Answer 3

Well, we don't really have any. I sure wish we did! We ever so often make plans to put the kids to bed and enjoy a movie. I sure wish we had a set "date night" like the two of you...



On the other side, I am a Desperate Housewives fan, so when that starts up again on Sunday's, we get all the gals together at my house, we bring snacks (usually something that has to do with apples) and enjoy.

Answer 4

We watch Cheaters. It comes on Saturday nights. We love it because it is so ghettofab. The other night his friend was really down (girl cheated on him) so he went over his house with some other friends to drink and talk crap. At 11PM when the show comes on, he called and asked if I was watching and if it was a new episode. I said nah and described the episode and he goes “Oh man that’s a good one.”



LOL I love him =)



We also go out every other Friday (pay day) to Bahama Breeze and watch the ending of Biggest Loser together.

Answer 5

We make dinner together, put the boys to bed at 8:30 pm. Then we get in the bath together and watch Grey's Anatomy in the tub ( I got him a plasma for the bath this last christmas) with a box of milkduds. It's silly but it's our thing. I love it and wouldn't trade it for anything.

Answer 6

Boxed wine from Wal-mart, Watch the weeks episodes of Judge Judy we have on DVR then check in a little NASCAR news for the weekends qualifying and then we hit the sack.

Answer 7

Thursday night is bar night. We always go to the bar and meet up with friends. Always get a little too smashed and end up feeling awful the next day. Which is why beginning TONIGHT, Thursday is no longer bar night :)

Answer 8

Me and the Mrs. slather mayonnaise and crumbled potato chips on each other and then re-enact the 2nd act of the H.M.S. Pinafore...



I am the very model of a modern Major-General,

I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral,

I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical,

From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical...

Answer 9

Usually Thursday Nights for us means Grey's Anatomy but with it being on hiatus we are watching Lost: )

Answer 10

Tuesday nights--we get home and go out to dinner. Tuesday nights are always dinner out nights.



Thursday nights--come home, have dinner (it's cooking day usually) and then settle in to watch LOST together.

Answer 11

Sunday is our day but only during football season. We have sex on Sunday morning, then watch games all day with our friends. We haven't had sex since football season ended! Ha ha!

Answer 12

LOL me and the wifey do the same! I drink wine though! How funny!

Answer 13

We like to watch Lost on ABC. That's about it.

Answer 14

After we put our son to bed, we smoke a bowl and watch tv.

Answer 15
