Please take a look at my sentences!

Hi!

Please, take a look at my sentences and check if they are right:

1) When I'm at home I usually sits around.

2) In a business world some actions are taken based on the spot decisions.

3) As he didn't have money to buy a new suit, he wound up going to the marriage with the old one.

In the following sentence what's the grammar explanation for the absence of preposition:

" I thought you were( - no preposition here) downtown".

Thanks,

Dandara

Thanks, Clive. By the way in the sentence nº 3 : "As he didn't have money to buy a new suit, he wound up going to the wedding in the old one", why can't I use the word marriage, but wedding? Don't they mean the same?

Another doubt: what's the difference between anniversary and birthday? And the way we refer to someone in his/her birthday is: birthday boy/bi
