I ate the 4-lb lobster! Man oh man, what an awesome Valentina Day weekend. Stefano had red roses delivered to me. I've NEVER had roses delivered to me, anywhere, ever!!! They came on Sat. afternoon, sometime after my HOA meeting. Can I just say for the 110th time, how absolutely wonderful it is to FINALLY be dating a REAL man?!?!?!
So the weekend started out pretty damn fun and just went up from there! Me and li'l bro had a great time on Fri. night. I brought him a little 4-pack of chocolate-covered strawberries since he is newly single (I got the 8-pack for Stefano) and the little gift made him happy. We shared some nachos at the Tacos a Go Go before the concert and one of his ex-GF's who we are still friendly with showed up to hang w/us and it was good times all around. LDB's band opened up and they were killer, as always and I got a big hug from the very cute LDB. Lots of cool guys I knew were there and this one old musician friend of mine, V., bought me at least a couple of coco rums. I danced with him, my friend J., my friend F., and of course my cameraman friend BB. I danced a lot, so much that I had to go outside a couple of times in the freezing cold sans jacket just to cool off.
A couple of those guy/musician friends that I hadn't seen in awhile, upon learning that I'm going through a divorce, suggested we get together soon; however these guys are generally undesirable even without the musician dealbreaker hanging over their heads. In fact, I gave my # to V., thinking that he was just making an innocent suggestion and the next day got several text messages ("I couldn't sleep thinking of you") and phone calls, which I rejected!!! Jeez. So as soon as the headliner band finished up I split without saying goodbye to anyone (li'l bro and his gal pal had left already) and raced over to Stefano's and into his warm adoring arms.
Saturday a.m. we slept in of course and he made breakfast for us. I also got my V-day gift, a sexy fishnet bodystocking which I may or may not want to incorporate into some stagewear! But then I had to get to the HOA meeting and he had to get to the studio later as well. At the HOA meeting we had a quorum of homeowners incredibly and so we were able to vote a new board in. But we ran soooo late (like we always do) that instead of waiting around to get the tally I went home to relax and just lounge around a little before having to get ready for the night's patrol/street racing initiative. Mudflap took his Dodge charger as an undercover car so I just followed him over there since most likely one of us would be leaving earlier than the planned 0400 finish time. We ate for free at the "Chik" and then mustered up with everyone at the substation. S was there as I knew he would be, and our eyes met a couple of times. I don't know why he was even bothering to look my way and it upset me, frankly. I was also upset to see the Crown Vic in the parking lot and if I'd had my key with me I woulda totally gone in there to see if he still had my duffle bags he took with him!!!
The media was there interviewing the sheriff and putting our whole plan on the news so the initiative turned out to be kind of a bust. All me and my Sgt. friend/partner did was do a bunch of traffic stops and write a whole mess of tickets. The good thing was that we called it a night at 0100 and I raced home to shower and change and get to Stefano's nice warm bed.
Sunday we slept late and then Stefano made us eggs w/cheese and spinach, then we decided to go for our run; I had come over already dressed in my running clothes so there'd be no delay and no excuse! We went to the neighborhood park and did several laps, though we walked a little and talked/held hands for some of it. But I think we did enough to earn our decadent dinner, then we went to look at this nearby watering hole that I had heard about, then we ran by the Home Depot to look at plants since he will be getting his annual vegetable garden up and running next week and he is going to help me pretty-up my patio. While we were there my phone rang with yet another damn phone call from V. and I gave the phone to Stefano to answer it. He told V. I was not available, heh heh.
Then I went home to shower and relax and take more pain pills (I'd had a headache on and off since Sat. morning and nothing was helping it, unbelievably) and the 600 mg. of prescription Ibuprofin left over from my 2008 gum surgery finally did the damn trick! I got all prettied up, curled my hair, and Stefano came to pick me up and get his V-day gifts which I had put into a beautiful gift bag (recycled of course). The Palm was divine. It was dark, romantic, and the service was the best I've ever seen. The longtime manager came right over to Stefano and said hi (Stefano's been eating there for years w/his parents) which yes, totally impressed me. We had dirty martinis, oysters casino, heart of palm salads, I had the 4-lb lobster which I shared w/Stefano, he had the veal parmigiana, and then we shared the Key Lime pie for dessert. Oh. My. God!
We headed back to his place and he opened his gifts and then even though it was early evening we got into bed and after awhile fell into comas. I slept for 11 hours!!! I am now thinking of writing the "Lobster Coma Blues." Since yesterday was a holiday for me (not Stefano) I did sleep in a little until he had to go. He actually took the morning off from work so he could go to a funeral, one of his friend's parents who died from cancer. So I went home and relaxed.... ahhhh... it was so heavenly blissful! I did go to Job #2 in the afternoon to get a couple hours in since I won't be going tonight as JFu and I will be going to see the legendary MERLE HAGGARD and KRIS KRISTOFFERSON in concert tonight!!! Stefano has a Mardi Gras gig, otherwise he'd be there too.
After Job #2 yesterday I ran by Stefano's house to get my leftover lobster and also some of the chocolate-covered strawberries since I am giving up chocolate for Lent tomorrow. I hung out w/him for awhile then ran home to get my guns/ammo/targets and met my uncle at the gun range to fire off a few. Always a good time at the gun range and I shot pretty well, I must say! Then I went home to change the water in my tulips and roses and got to bed at a somewhat decent hour for me. Stefano said his 'rents wanted to go to dinner w/us before they leave next Sunday for their South American cruise, so we'll be going out with them on Sat. night, yay!
