It was nice to unwind and have some fun. If you've ever been to one of these places, they grill your food in front of you and each of these stations can sit about 8 people. There was the four of us and another threesome at the table. When they asked us what beverage they could bring (remember, this is lunch) the threesome all said "tea". So the waitress is eyeballing me asking me what I want. I had spied this passionfruit mojito that I just couldn't pass up, so I made a joke about "5 o'clock somewhere" and ordered it. I unleashed the floodgates, cuz D (a different D) ordered the chocolate martini and Gwennie ordered some other fruity drink...C stuck to tea. When they came, and we all sipped each others drink, I had ordered the winner. So much so that D passed on her martini and handed it off and ordered my drink. Yeah Baby...YEAH! We each ended up drinking down two of those and then told the waitress to not give us anymore. We had things to do.
After lunch, we headed to the Mall. Now, if you know me, the mall is Dizzy's version of HELL! Dizzy is not really a shopper...unless it's the mothership called Apple. However, we did hit Victoria's Secret and there's just something about that place that I like. While I can't wear everything in the place, there's a lot I can and it makes me feel sexy and invincible.
After that, we headed to Fredrick's of Hollywood, which was an excellent move because we found an assortment of Bustiers and Corsets that C and I were looking for. I love hiding that kind of stuff underneath my clothes and when the moment comes...surprising my partner with a little something extra. I could go on, but I do not run a porn blog here. I've told you before..that's my other blog.
We ended up parting ways after that, and I made a stop at BevMo...Hello...5 cent Wine Sale? While I have a great supply of reds, I needed some light whites to round out the home supply. So I picked some up, along with a little Brie and headed home. After doing some pick up around the house, and chilling a bottle of Jacob's Creek Moscato, I popped open the bottle and enjoyed it with some crackers with Brie and a sprinkle of EVOO and chipotle spices. Yum!
It was while I was sipping down this bottle that I realized that I had inadvertently stepped out of the "J" cycle that I was in. Remember? It seemed like every guy that I kept running into started with the letter J. Granted, I'm not in a relationship or anything like that, but I had indeed broken the cycle. I think that was MMs doing aka beyond the grave.
It was something he said when we were tossing back numerous tequila shots on the eve before Thanksgiving (his suggestion.."Are you working tomorrow?" Me..."No...tomorrow's Thanksgiving". Him...We're drinking tonight!" And Holy God...drink we did. I outdrank him, which I'm not proud of and it made me lighten up on the tequila...poor bastard was crawling to the Aerobed by the time I was done). The weird thing was, the day he died he sent someone to me, and I remembered what he had said that night. And this person did not start with the letter "J". Trust a bottle of wine to make me think of that!
You know how someone can get under your skin and never quite leave it? You try like hell to erase the memory and do crazy things to help you forget, but that person just stays there "dug in like an Alabama tick" (sorry...Predator reference I couldn't pass up). Well, I have a tick that I'd been trying to dig out with a knife, but it wasn't happening. I feel like after this non "J" person that maybe I've crossed a bridge. I'll know for sure by this summer.
Anyway...here's a couple of pics from today.
