Oh I Can’t Always Get What I Want?
Posted on July 23rd, 2006 in Are You Gonna Eat That?, Does All Her Own Stunts
Overheard in my kitchen recently:Me: *Whining about something I am sure*
Jack: You can't always get what you want... *pause*
Me: *sly grin*
Jack: Although, you sure seem to all the time...
Yes, yes I do.
I have been totally spoiled this week thus far.
We had Jack's birthday, which was a small family thing but I got him an awesome gift. Totally frivolous, something JUST for him that I have absolutely no use for. He was thrilled.
Thursday night I was wined and dined at this fantastic new restaurant off of 17th Ave. It's called Sterling Bar and Grill, sadly it doesn't have a website yet. K took me there for a romantic dinner. The atmosphere was wonderful. Dark wood, very elegantly decorated, the service was excellent.
We ordered a very nice Riesling and Parmesan Crusted Scallops for an appetizer. They were AMAZING. For the main course I had an 8oz Top Sirloin with Bacon and Mushroom Risotto and seasonal vegetables, K ordered the Prawn Linguine. My steak was marvelous, done to perfection. The risotto was also very good, although maybe a tad mushy, and there was WAY too much for a serving and I ended up leaving a third of it on my plate, but it was delicious.
We had the deep dish apple pie for dessert which was nothing spectacular, the vanilla bean gelato on the side was very pleasant.
The price was reasonable for the quality of the food. I would dine there again and I highly recommend it.
After dinner we went back to K's place. I had not been in the best of moods thus far. I just felt off, not particularly affectionate, mostly standoffish. I was trying hard to be cheerful because I knew that K put quite an effort into the plans for the evening.
In his bedroom he lit candles, slowly stripped off my clothes, and then gave me a very relaxing back massage with warm oil. Even though I was not really in the space to totally enjoy it, I really have to commend his efforts.
After that we relaxed and talked and my bad mood started to dissipate a little. There was some kissing and fondling and before long I had relaxed and was totally enjoying myself. A great orgasm never hurts either ;)
We cuddled and then I had to go because it was getting late and K needed to work the next day. He walked me to my car and we said our goodbyes and I headed home. I was truly very romantic and I did end up having an excellent time once I stopped being moody.
This morning I got treated to another very awesome date. I met H at his house at around 10am. First we decided to go to Denny's for breakfast. I like Denny's a lot, the food there is always great, although the coffee leaves a little something to be desired. H mentioned needing to go shopping for some clothes so I offered to accompany him to the mall and help him shop :D I LOVE shopping.
We went to Market Mall and found H some pants and shirts at Old Navy. Then we wandered around, got some stuff in Zellers and took a look at the animals in PetLand.
After departing from the mall H directed me to this parking area in a park. We walked down to the edge of the Bow River and waded, watching people float past in all manner if boats and kayak. We decided that we would see about renting a raft so that we could go boating sometime in the near future with maybe some other people. I think that will be a lot of fun. H told me about sediment layers left by the glacial lake that used to be on top of the area that is now Calgary. I like learning new things like that :)
On the way back to the car H asked me if I like ice cream (some people are lactose intolerant you know) and I said that I love ice cream. So he took me to this little ice cream place that I have never seen before. They have loads of flavors. I had a single scoop of turtle ice cream, YUMMY! It was so hot out today the ice cream was melting almost faster than I could eat it.
H took me on a little tour of where he grew up and then we debated cruising some garage sales but the closest ones were confusing to find, and the one we drove past looked pretty picked-over so we decided to save that for another day perhaps, when we had more time. I drove him home, there was a very good kiss with tongue, and then I had to race home so that J wouldn't be late for his date with O.
Tomorrow evening I might have a date with O, I am hoping. She might not have time but I am keeping my fingers crossed!
Such a lucky girl I am :D

I was at market mall when you were! I didn’t see you though. And I didn’t mean to be, so it’s not like I’m a really scary stalker girl or anything. Just a little bit.
I kind of like the O you gave me.

I sent a present home for you tonight.

I tried once to post a comment but blogger was giving me troubles. I really miss chatting with you. Sounds like you’ve been pretty busy lately. Hope you were able to go out with O…
Take care
Hugs,
