You can use these two days to live however you please. Some may like to decompose through the means of a dark liquid in a small cup with ice, while others may get all of their chores done and prepare themselves for next weeks battle. And maybe this is the weekend of the date you set with the person you met online the other week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But after a long and trying week at work, the last thing you want is a late night out. Of course, dinner is the go-to date night, but the thought of first leaving the house at 7pm, having a drink to calm your nerves, get home at the time you\u2019re normally snoring on the couch, and then wake up tomorrow feeling groggy? That\u2019s a no from me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wait, what\u2019s that?

No, no it\u2019s not. Brunch is the place where you can get eggs at 1pm because you want to, without any judgment, while your company is having buffalo wings.&nbsp;<strong>BRUNCH&nbsp;<\/strong>is the new wave of dates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get this- you can go mid-afternoon, giving you time to wake up and get ready in the morning, you can enjoy a drink (preferably a mimosa or bloody mary- sorry, but a hard dark drink before 5pm is probably going to freak your date out) AND get home all before 3pm.
