scary

I woke up alone Saturday morning in The AA’s hard bed. It was 7:30 and I expected to be alone, as I’d woken up when he left to go sleep on the couch around 4:30, so I wasn’t surprised. But I was cold and awake and figured I might as well go home [...]

houston we have a problem

Deep conversations shouldn’t really take place at the counter of the Starbucks with your favorite barista before 9am for all to hear. Now that I’ve said that…
So this morning I had a deep conversation at the counter of Starbucks with my favorite barista before 9am and loud enough that all could hear.
“Hey chica! [...]

verlmelho

It’s red tonight.
And there are a lot of crazy ass mofos up in my neighborhood bar tonight.
Cheers!

get ready!

I just spent a week’s worth of my wine budget on this. I can’t wait to play with it!

 
Update:  I’m sorry, but I don’t think I made it clear that the wine budget won’t actually be cut, per se.  It’s just the equivalent of a week’s wine.  My bad.

rambling

I went to my neighborhood bar to have drinks last night, and for the first time going by myself I actually had to pay my own tab.  Boo to that one!  I looked so damn cute yesterday that I just couldn’t justify going home and doing nothing, but the place was pretty much empty.  Ick.  [...]

and we drank the night away

until i passed out in my bed and didn’t even hear him leave.  oh well.
Award goes to Cutie McBarista for being a great kisser.  One of the best.  The rest….eh.  Ok. 
It’s kinda weird to hook up with one of your great friends.  But it’s nice to wake up the next morning and not feel bad [...]

my delicious date

I love food.  I love wine.  I love good dates with cute guys.
And I looked a-freaking-dorable yesterday, to the point that I could tell he was a little awe-struck when he saw me.  Yeah, I said it.  But it was that good and I cannot believe I didn’t get a picture of myself!  I’m slippin.
I [...]

stepping out

After hearing from The Therapist yesterday that in order to really achieve some personal growth I just haaaaave to have a conversation with Mr. D, I just had to have that glass of wine in last night’s post.  A closure conversation.  Without wine.  The Therapist’s interpretation of the situation was that I was sending mixed [...]

is anything worse

I’m determined to take this trip, and having a goal has me re-examining my budget.  That’s a horrible word for me, bt-dubs – BUDGET.  Ick.  But when I looked at the trends in my spending and saw that I’ve spent $1952 on eating out and groceries in the last 3 months I kinda got sick.  [...]

dinner

My newest purchase.

moving right along

The best thing for me to do when I’m upset about something is exercise. And seeing my new bikini on my body at the pool in front of a ton of people also makes me want to exercise. In addition, I’ve had the best intentions of running pretty much every night for the past month, [...]

lush

I drank a ton last night while waiting for my Italian sausage ziti to finish cooking. And then I ate bread. And then I wanted to d-i-e. I felt so sick. And so horribly drunk. Like baaaaad. I think it was mostly the speed with which I drank the white wine, not the quantity. And [...]

married chick hell

I get that not all married people or people with kids suck. And these girls used to all be super cool or they wouldn’t be my friends. Pregnant Smoker (the one with the husband who is a killer) and I were never close, but we were still friends. The other 2 I was close to…Becky [...]

under the table

The cupcake baking for today’s birthday party was supposed to take place last night, but instead Allison and I went to a sports bar around the corner from my house. And wow – welcome to the burbs! There were all kinds of fucking children up in that bitch last night. Are you kidding me? Of [...]

girls’ night in

Jessica came over last night to bake cupcakes, drink wine and eat. Instead we drank wine, talked, drank more wine, she danced around the living room, drank more wine, ate the yummy spinach cheese puffs and spring rolls, drank more wine and then figured out the answer to yesterday’s question.
Mr. Delicious was texting me and [...]

delicious squared

Ok, so we’ve established that I love to cook. Simple enough. But there’s more to it. And I don’t mean baking/cupcakes/talking about food or even eating. I love, love, love, love, love cooking for people…especially when said people happen to be a tall, dark, super handsome man who rocks my world [...]

he rocks my world

Everyone who knows me knows that I hate the phone. I hate talking on the phone. I hate calling people. I rarely listen to voicemails, rarely return calls. And because of all of the above my phone never rings. Because everyone knows. I’ll respond to texts in a heartbeat. The blackberry is perfect for texting [...]

the smitten kitten

I’ve known BSE for a long enough time now, he knows the good and bad about me, yet I still get nervous around him. I don’t get particularly expressive. I answer all his questions honestly, and he asks a TON of questions, but I don’t offer too much emotion relating to him. This isn’t unique [...]

i finally had a stalker and didn’t even know it!

Ok, so I’m fickle.  It’s true.  And a crush/interest/relationship even…if I were to ever have one again…can turn on and off as quickly as the light in my apartment.  So after spending the night Sunday with BSE I was totally smitten.  And after the texts he sent me Monday morning my head buried itself a [...]
