Avoiding UPS, and red sparkling wine
(Originally conceived for my blog, CaptainOfTheInternet.com)
Yesterday was Valentine's Day. The game went over pretty well, we had a fun time playing it, but didn't get anywhere near finishing the story I'd created.
UPS is trying to get a new desk to me, plus some nightstands. They tried to deliver it yesterday while I was recovering from the weekend, but I was out like a light and missed them. Rather than try to redeliver it, they dropped my furniture off at the rental office which is about a block away. That's actually way too far to carry a 60 - 100 pound desk. I've been working out and stuff, but a block? That's crazy. So I'm avoiding the rental office until the ice melts off the ground and I feel a little better.
Speaking of ice, it snowed yesterday! The snowfall lasted for only an hour or so, which was a little disappointing. I was hoping the lake would completely freeze over and I could slide around pretending I was a Peanuts character. This morning though the top quarter-inch or so was frozen again, so I may get my wish before winter is over.
I think I picked up the sick from my forays into the supermarket yesterday. Just crappy sore-throat stuff.
For Valentine's Day, I made Mike's Famous Pasta, which is a sun-dried tomato, mushroom, spinach tortellini thing in an alfredo sauce, plus Pillsbury biscuits, a salad (which was really just lettuce with sauce) and burnt cookies for dessert. The cookies were actually so burnt that I had to throw them away. Lankakitten was distracting me by having boobies.
The Safeway market I went to for all these supplies was a neat experience though, it's just like the fancy Pavilions markets back home (both owned by Vons) with a Starbucks inside and a sandwich deli and all that other stuff. We used to live right next to Pavilions, and it was one of the highlights of our old place. I bought a bottle of ultra-premium $5.99 Red Spumante Sparkling Wine to go with the other stuff and Lankakitten and I devoured it. Red Spumante is good with a capital 'ood.
Then I had sex which was kind of great until our crazy Annie cat batted at my testicles. I've heard of that happening before, but never thought it would happen to me. So coitus interuptus, I kicked her out of the room, then went back to my business -- only to be interrupted a second time less than five minutes later! She figured out how to open the door and returned to harrass us. "Meoooow! Watcha doin'?"
"Go away, Annie!"
At this point she somehow managed to climb under the comforter and rake my toes with her claws. So I kicked her out again, shutting the door firmly behind me, returning to my waiting lady, who had lost her concentration.
Bloody cats.

After showing my wife your penis...
I have never heard something so awesome, and so candid at the same time.
Marry me.
