a long post about my weekend which does not include anal sex, sorry

haha, everyone is clamoring for anal sex. I WILL HOLD IT OVER YOU, THEREBY GIVING ME POWER!!! HAHAHAHAHAAA! BOW BEFORE MEEEEE!!!

ahem. none of that yet.

As I mentioned in my comments below, we never did get to see Hitch. Stupid Buckhead traffic. So we went to a Borders and walked around…mmm…booooks. And a compUSA (”no, thank you, I’m just looking. Really. no. Please…FOR THE LOVE OF GOD LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!”)

Attempts were made at a romantic saturday night, but just as it was getting good…welll….

it’s amazing the damage a chain reaction caused by a simple, small, involuntary cough can do. All those muscles down in the abdomen and beyond just clench up, and if it occurs at the wrong time during a VERY vigorous rhythm…well….I’m told it’s very much like hitting a brick wall.

Poor Kev.

So that kind of killed the mood.

Sunday I had a long afternoon choir rehearsal. We’re doing Handel’s Messiah in a few weeks (not the whole thing, just the Easter bits), so that took up most of the day. We have a new hired soprano section leader named Jess, who seems very cool. Sunday was her first day, and she came out to lunch with us between the service and the rehearsal. She’s from Alabama, and ordered the Catfish and grits breakfast special. Ew!

Got home and napped, and then Kev and I got all fancied up for a nice dinner out. Not to the Brazilian place. Somehow an all you can eat exotic meat place didn’t really appeal to us last night. So we went to Agave, which is a wonderful southwestern restaurant. With the best margaritas I’ve ever had. Mmm….margarITas! I had a steak and Kev had lamb chops. Then we split a banana and plantain cheesecake with agave syrup. Mmmmm…SO DARN DELICIOUS!

Of course, our plan totally backfired, and we were WAAAAY too full last night to do anything else than some nice smooching and cuddling in bed.

This morning when I left for work, Kev had left a vase of flowers and some chocolates in my car. (everyone together now…AWWWWWWWWW!!!!)

What a nice weekend! Even if not everything went according to plan. We will spend the next couple of days furiously cleaning, because MY MOM is coming to visit…for the first time since Kev moved in. (can you say…awkward?)

Today I was supposed to do this big experiment at work and then go home to clean. But guess what? All 32 of my yeast cultures that I started on saturday were HORRIBLY CONTAMINATED with flourescent yellow icky stuff.

goddammit. Now I have to start all over again, and wont’ be able to do the experiment until Friday.

And now I have to pretend like I’m doing work, because I didn’t even bring my laptop in, so I can’t work on the lab website. I’ve got NOTHING TO DO! and I can’t really go home just yet. Maybe after I eat lunch.

Holy Shit!

so I was casually and narcissistically checking my blogpatrol stats, curious about who’s been visiting this weekend. More and more I’ve been getting random google searches with search terms that don’t show up on Blogpatrol. However, Statcounter (yes, I have two stat trackers on my site, shut up) lists these as image searches for Bondage Chicken. Hooray! I’m #1 and #2 for google image searches for Bondage Chicken!

Why are there so many people out there searching for Bondage chicken, is what I want to know. I’ll bet they are soooooo disappointed when they find me!

ANYWAY, that’s not my point. My point is that while perusing the list of referring pages, I notice that several people came over from www.erosblog.com, a website that I have been enjoying for a good long time now, ever since I started blogging, really. And have had linked in my “wish I were as cool as” section. I consider it one of those “too cool for me” sex-type blogs, like Mistress Matisse (another fascinating read. I’m not, nor will I likely ever be, anywhere NEAR that hardcore, but I love reading about it!). I have never left a comment, that I can remember anyway. But I love reading the highlights of the kink blogs, articles about how the government has tried and failed to interfere with porn and kink, entertaining pictures, and various and fun sounding exploits of the contributers.

Anyway, my point is….they linked me. Holy shit, they linked me.

Whoa. I’m linked on erosblog. I am so not worthy. Guess this means I will HAVE to publish that anal sex post I’ve been mentally working on for months. Sorry Kev.

“Kev! I’m linked on Erosblog!”

“is that good!”

“YES!”

“that’s cool.”

pft! he so doesn’t understand.

Anyway, I wouldn’t be surprised if this schoolgirlish dorky gushing gets me booted OFF the list, but I really just couldn’t hold that in.

Weeee!

The festivities start early around here…

As per KtP’s question on her site the other day, my adventures in yogurt are happily over. Thus, normal activities have resumed.

Hehe. For example…

Last night Kev got home late, since he was helping a work friend install new brakes on his car. He got home after 10, tired, sweaty, and very, very dirty. Nice.

He decided to soak his tired muscles in a hot bath. After a while, I went in to check on him. I sat on the edge of the tub and rubbed his chest.

“how ya feeling, sweetie?”

“tired”

“awww…I’ll leave you alone tonight, then.”

“I’m sorry.”

Then I got an evil idea. I had bought a little sexy sleepwear at Target, and was going to save it for valentines day. But it wasn’t someting lacey or frilly - just a pair of red knit short shorts, and a very clingy, strappy white camisole. I had wanted the camisole in red, but they were out of my size. grrrrr. Cute and sexy, and surprisingly comfy. Anyway, I casually asked Kev if he wanted to see my new special valentine’s day PJ’s.

EVIL!

Slipped into the shorts and camisole and went back into the bathroom. Oh, did I mention that the white camisole was somewhat transparent? Yeah, it was.

“what do you think?” I asked, twirling around.

“nice”

I sat back down on the edge of the tub, and noticed just how much Kev liked my new outfit. heehee…he REEEEALLLY liked it.

Turns out, Kev got a second wind last night. Maybe he wasn’t so tired after all. Of course, it’s a little easier for him when I’m on top. Hope my neighbors weren’t trying to sleep.

Today we’re going to check out some motorcycle shops, just to browse around. I’ve been wanting one of those Vespa-like scooters for a while now. Maybe after I graduate and we get out of crazy-traffic atlanta.

Then to a movie (maybe Hitch) and a casual dinner. Tomorrow we’ve got plans to go to a VERY nice Brazilian restaurant. Hooray! I get to dress up!

Have a great weekend, everyone!
