I was also going to say a movie is a good thing to do. It's perfect to do alone as you don't talk during a movie and you can go see a happy one and laugh and get distracted or a sad cathartic one and cry your eyes out!
My H also loves to ask all meaningfully "how are you?" F that!
I always say GREAT! and then launch into some reason I am doing fan f-ing tastic. Like "Great! I just accomplished ..." or "Great! I just went for a run!" or "Great! What a nice sunny day today, right?" Often he would be super confused by this answer. Also most times I would not ask him "how are you?" back. Why? Do I really care? No. But if I did he would often say "oh I'm ok...." all sad.
Hope you have an incredible Friday night doing whatever you want! And congrats on quitting the Starbucks! Hugs, Lisa
