Is anyone else bothered by the sleepover?
I'm trying to figure out why someone who has to be at work early the next day would need to sleepover at a friends home.
The first thing that came to mind was maybe they were planning on drinking, but if the friend had to work that night and DS had to work early the next morning, it seems there wouldn't be any drinking going on or at least not enough that DS couldn't drive home.
Is it possible DS knew someone was going to stop by Friday night and wanted to avoid them, but didn't want to upset/anger them by telling them no directly? Easier to just not be at home when they stop by?
