Once I Was A Fairy Princess

Posted on August 17th, 2006 in Are You Gonna Eat That?, Does All Her Own Stunts

There seems to be a problem with blogging, at least for me. When my life is not very exciting I have loads of time and am inclined to blog at great length. However, when my life is exciting and I have loads of interesting things I could write about, I am just not in the mood to do so.

I am writing this entry under duress inflicted by myself because I don't want all my reader's to abandon me.

Recently I have just been having the most thrilling times. Last weekend K took me to a wedding and we danced and salivated all over each other like a couple of love-struck teenagers. It was actually quite wonderful and I enjoyed myself thoroughly.

I had gone a little overboard with my scheduling of the weekend, and arranged a VERY early morning date with H for Saturday. By the time I got home from the wedding I only had two hours before I needed to leave to see H. I skipped sleeping and made sure to grab some coffee on my way to H's house.

He had told me that he would likely still be in bed when I arrived, and instructed me to just let myself in. I felt like a stalkerish burglar, but I found him still asleep in bed, so I said "Good morning" and laid down on the bed next to him (with all my clothes still on, and on top of the blankets). We talked and cuddled for a while, eventually I ended up partially unclothed and under the blankets with him. He sleeps naked by the way ;) Tee Hee.

After lounging about in bed for a couple of hours we got up, did a bit of running around, grabbed some breakfast to go and went and ate in a park. I was a really great morning.

Then I had to rush home, pick up our sitter, and Jack and I took off to meet some friends of ours. We had lunch with them and a great chat, but all too soon we had to race home because we were having V and DF over for dinner.

We BBQ'd and BS'd until the late evening. DF fell asleep in a chair so V took him home and after 38 hours straight of being awake, I collapsed into bed beside my husband and went to sleep.

Sunday was no less eventful. Jack had a two hour massage appointment after which O had invited us and the kids to a picnic BBQ in the city. I spent the morning gathering enough food to feed 20 people (as per my usual way of doing things). K, H, and LD were also invited. Read the sentence over again. All the males I am either dating or have recently kissed were going to be at the same place at the same time.

Jack left for his appointment and I packed up three coolers, my little BBQ, and several bags worth of food into the van and headed into the city to pick up K and H. It was a little odd to be in a vehicle with K, H, and my two kids, but odd in the amusing way. We got to the park and my big strong guys packed all the gear to the picnic area. LD, O, Jack, and a couple of other people were there already. I set up my grill and proceeded to indulge my unhealthy desire to feed anyone who gets within ten feet of me. Everyone ate and talked and got along surprisingly well. I think even K, who is usually quite uncomfortable in new social groups, did exceptionally well.

After everyone finished supper we built a fire and roasted marshmallows and made smores. It was excellent, I had a wonderful time. Thank you O for inviting us and allowing me to just take over and play hostess.

On Tuesday after I got off work I had a surprising desire to go clothes shopping. This is unusual because normally I LOATH shopping for clothes for myself. I rarely ever buy anything for myself unless I need it for something specific.

I called Jack and told him I felt like shopping and he was like "GO! Go NOW! Buy all the clothes you want!"

He knows better than to discourage me if I am inclined to shop, since I may not feel in the mood for it again until 2009.

So I went to one of my favorite stores and literally tried on racks worth of clothing. I ended up leaving the store with two pairs of pants and 11 tops, for a mere $200.00 (I love sales!) And I felt FABULOUS! I am really pleased with everything that I bought.

That evening I had a date with K. We went to one of my absolute favorite restaurant, Open Sesame. It's a fusion restaurant that features Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Indian dishes. They are most popular for their made-to-order stir-fry bar. Basically you order your meat selection, as well as rice or noodles, and they bring a you an empty bowl and direct you to the stir-fry bar. There you find a wide selection of vegetables, lentils, and sauces. You fill your bowl as high as you can manage and then leave it for the chefs who cook behind an open counter. You can wait and watch them cook it or return to your table and your stir-fry will be brought to your table.

The food was amazing and we had a great time. Even K, who is primarily a carnivorous creature, enjoyed the stir-fry. After dinner we went back to K's for a couple of hours. By the time I headed home it was well after midnight.

LD and I have been e-mailing back and forth the past few days. Much to my disappointment he is not interested in having any sort of relationship with a married or otherwise involved woman. I understand and respect that, and while part of me has a sick desire to try and seduce him, I won't indulge that since I think he would likely find it insulting. I shall have to be content being his friend and flirting shamelessly with him. Don't worry, I'm not holding out any hope of changing his mind, although I would be most pleased if I managed it unintentionally.

This weekend we are going out of town so I won't be blogging. I am sure I'll have more exciting stories in the near future.

I want to wish Padme a great vacation and I hope to talk to you when you get back darling :) I'm thinking about you and I miss you terribly.
