Oh, askye, that's so beautiful. Glad dinner was good, too.
Spike's Bitches 24: I'm Very Seldom Naughty.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
askye, that is wonderful for both you and your father. I'm glad the dinner went so well.
The dinner was yummy. Really.
Mom and I had the house salad, which included tomatoes grown by the restaurant. Dad had the poached pear salad (which I will have if I ever go again) -- poached pear, goat cheese, procuitto, bitter greens, this dressing that was amazing.
Mom had steak, mashed potatoes and aspargus. Dad had macodamia cursted halibut with this amazing coconut somethign sauce and risotto (that wasn't all that) and green and white aspargus. I had lamb. Wiht the crepe thing that was sour.
For dessert Mom had chocolate creme brule cake -- a rolled cake with creme brule in side. Dad cheated on his salad and dinner so he had Orange cranberry sorbet. And I had flourless chocolate cake.
We all shared. And I have to say that alternating bites with the tangy, cold sorbet and the dense rich cake was amazing.
Plus the waiter -- cute.
And I got a folding hammock for my yard ! (not from the restaurant or the waiter, but as a present).
askye, you're making my mouth water.
I just merrily skipped everything since Monday. It's my Buffistaversary today.
Did you send it to sean(dot)kozma(at)gmail(dot)com?This explains why Seanie no longer loves me. I should maybe update...
Laura, so sorry to hear about the tablet theft.
"I'm going to draw a monster, one that will scare you out of town and let me get back in the bath!"Don't give her Pete's number, for christ's sake. She'll enable him.
Deena, I think a handmade tiara would be cool. You've got great design sense and I think anyone who got a tiara from you would be bragging forever that you made it.It would be the bestest tiara ever.
I think I like a boy.Whoot!
And Daddy wrotet sniffles That is so lovely... Happy birthday askye!
So... We have Too Much Candy, do we also have Too Much Color and is it as fun? Because I just colored my hair and got distracted. I was going for demure and subdued, but with double the time I might end up brazen. It certainly wouldn't be the first time.
Askye, I'm so glad your dad got to put that in writing for you! I got all sniffly, missing mine.
Happy Buffistaversary, Cass!
For Jilli: Bats.
Thanks P-C!
Nine can be a perfectly reasonable bedtime, right? Because I think if I don't go to sleep now, I will be up until all hours. Again.
Before I go though, a Weird Thing happened today.
I forgot to take the trash down to the curb both last night and this morning. I remembered this as I grabbed coffee (I'm out of milk, it's a tragedy) a couple blocks from my house on my way to work but honestly couldn't be assed to drive back just to haul my trash can down. It's big, it can go weeks and weeks without me thinking that actually getting the trash picked up is a priority.
Get home tonight after work... The trash can is at the curb. Empty. Actually it was one of the only ones on the street that hasn't been hauled back houseward.
Someone took my trash to the curb for me today. I don't have a clue who it was but I fully intend to thank them, so thank you mysterious trash hauler.
They didn't take the recycling down though. That must be next week.
Now I want a new tiara.
And a bat.
