We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.

Pregaming the pregame

You've been talking up this night pretty much all week. There's a list of songs to play next to your calc notes and you've already picked out the perfect outfit in your mind, then changed it 10 times before returning back to the original outfit.

Coming home after a long day

No matter if you worked ten hours or ten minutes, you've made it! You are home, the bra is coming off, and the fun is about to start!

Waiting patiently for your roommates to come home/your friends to come over

Although you're day's finished, that doesn't necessarily equate that your girls are also free and able to get this party started. So you clean your apartment, pluck your eyebrows, make some tea, watch some Netflix, pretty much anything to pass the time before your people arrive.

People have arrived and it's time to eat

FINALLY everyone is in the same room and it's time to get this party started...and no party can get truly started without getting some food down first.

Talking about going out but make no real effort actually get ready to go out

You'll start getting your makeup on once this episode of the Bachelor is over, or once you finish this bag of chips, or really at the end of whatever task is currently at hand, which is clearly more interesting than getting your thighs in that pair of skinny jeans.

Looking at the clock and realize, it's game time...and you're just not ready

You don't know when 4:30 turned into 10:30 but somewhere in between tacos and hearing about that guy in your roommates accounting class asking that freshman out via Twitter, time truly got away from you and you're starting to ponder if you even really want to go out.

Breaking out the wine because, well, if you're going out you may as well have one drink first.

Because one glass of vino never hurt anyone...

Getting into a really deep philosophical conversation about life its meaning and your role in it

You can't really identity how this conversation started but all you know is that you can't really stop talking about what it all really means, like really really means.

You start giving each other 'the look'

Better known as, 'are you thinking about how good yoga pants would feel right now also' look.

Weighing the options

Going out...not going out...going out...not going out

Changing into your PJs, putting your hair in a messy bun, getting comfy on the couch and getting ready for your girls night in

Because sitting at home with the girls watching a movie starring Ryan Gosling's abs and talking about life is much better than attempting to put on heels and eyeliner anyways!

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
