Obrigado, D...
Good day today, got to spend some quality time with the woman of the hour, my interminably beloved D...The wheels are in motion, groundwork is being laid (teehee), and grand plans are being hatched! It's going to be an amazing summer/year...
(Thanks to Mo for playing along and making tonight possible...love ya baby!)
OK, now to provide some content for all the other readers: ;)
Taxes got exactly no attention today. The pile of associated papers moved from their place of rest to the active workspace, my bed, spent the day there completely undisturbed, then were carefully transported back to their place of rest, perhaps to be neglected all weekend. Made a pot a marinara sauce, which turned out pretty well, if I do say so myself. If you're in the greater Charlotte metro area, come on by for a plate/bowl of chinese noodles (beats the pants off western pasta) with yummy marinara. Mmm. Meaty goodness, and tomato-y! Yum!
Lounged on the veranda, marveled at the day and quality of life in general, chatted on IM and the phone, watched a couple episodes of Good Eats with Alton Brown...this guy has the best cooking show on TV today, in my opinion. He gives not only the how-to, but the why, the science behind the cooking, foods, ingredients, and tools/procedures, including visual aids where necessary, so that though you may not want to make what he's making on the show, it's great general cooking knowledge, that when added to your repertoire, makes for better improvisational cooking, and helps us all to be better cooks. Yum.
Watched Season 01, Episode 01 of Scrubs, and I think I'm officially crushing on the dreamily lovely Ms. Chalke. Yum. Hair tied up, wearing scrubs, with those glasses on? Ouch. The writing's pretty good too, even from the pilot...not bad for a sitcom. Pretty much love any dialogue where they properly use the phrase "For the LOVE OF GOD!"
Had a wonderful conversation with L on the state of the union, projections, and the general direction of things to come...planning, preparing, and plotting...conspiring to being smaller groupings of good together to form larger, happier groupings of wonder...again, it's going to be a fabulous summer/year for all I think...big things are afoot. It could be a very good time to be in the Queen City (I hate that moniker). Also chatted briefly with the always lovely J, It's been far far too long since we've had one of our way-too-late-for-a-schoolnight conversations. I do so cherish them.
Supposed to have lunch with some friends tomorrow, but they're saying they want to meet in Concord, which is like 40 miles away...WTF?! Being that it's very nearly 3am, I'm thinking I won't be up in time. We'll see...Why the hell couldn't they have decided on somewhere around here?! Sheesh.
*Yawn* More soon (maybe...it's shaping up to be a busy weekend...)
Obrigado!
