Frankly, My Dear....

LaBev and I traveled to Boston on Friday to meet the infamous Frank, who may or may not have flown all the way from Texas just to meet us.

On the car ride south, Bev and I discussed escape plans, in case he was a freak pondered what the night might hold.

While sitting outside Cheers, we regretted not requesting Frank to wear something that might make him stand out in a crowd, such as a kilt or a bowler hat... but hell, this is Boston, that stuff is common-place. Bev insisted she spotted him, but I disagreed since somewhere in my mind I believed he would be wearing this outfit;


and of course, driving this;


Of course, Bev was correct and Frank surprised us with dead dandelions flowers.

And in case you were wondering, yes it was bright and sunny in Boston on Friday.


We made our way to dinner where Bev and I enjoyed a bottle on Pinot Gris, while Frank gingerly sipped un-sweetened ice tea.

At which point, Bev and I were maybe a smidge worried.


But then we found Frank's weakness; Bacon and Blue Cheese Martinis.

... and the party began!


I'll let the pictures tell the rest of the story.



Who likes to party?

This guy!

Frank even attempted to recreate his one moment of fame:


Frank was much shorter than I had imagined.

Give me "sexy"



Give me "special"

So there you have it. Good times. Frank is as pervy fun and witty as we could have hoped for. And we left him relatively unscarred.

Dust Off the Mantle

I'm on fire! Two posts in one day! You'd think I have nothing better to do...

LaBev has graced me with a major award! As an "Awesome Commenter" I need to don an evening gown receive my award by simply answering 10 questions, so here goes:


1. What is your most embarrassing moment of all time? Oh which one do I chose? I guess I'll go with the time I had BOTH of my boyfriends show up at my horse show. Luckily, they arrived just as I was heading to the ER, but the last words I heard were one of them saying to the other, "So, are you like a friend or something?". Ackward.

2. If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would it be? EASY! Bev's Chicken Tikka Masala!

3. How old were you when you had your first kiss? Kindergarten on the short bus. Brian L. We're still FB friends.

4. What is your browser's home page? Gmail Homepage. Wild, right?

5. What color do you never, ever wear? Anything Dayglow

6. Are you a nature-lover or a city-slicker? Nature all the way.

7. If you were granted 3 wishes, what would they be? (none of that "more wishes" crap!) The power to make good things magically happen, the power to make bad things magically not happen, and Ralph Fiennes obsessively in love with me.

8. Do you have any scars? How'd you get them? I have many. But they're in the inside. I don't like to talk about them.
Ah, just kidding. Lots of scars, most of which I don't recall how I earned them; falls, kicks, bites... and 1 surgery.

9. Ever seen a ghost? Yes, I had a man who used to stand and watch me in the barn. I'd catch him out of the corner of my eye. He left after I consulted with a Shaman.

10. What is your dream job? I'm probably living my dream job; owning my own horse farm. Of course, ask me again when it's -15F.

Now in turn, I'm supposed to select my top 10 commenters and offer up 10 questions for them to answer. But as you may have noticed, I took my Top Commenters widget down to give it a tuneup and I accidently dropped it and it shattered into a million pieces. So being the non-conformist I am, I'm switching it up and picking the folks who NEVER comment. I'm looking at YOU Encino, CA (this includes LA, Van Nuys and Santa Cruz), Miami, FL, Eugene, OR, Hooksett, NH, Tallahassee, Florida (my linky junkie! I heart you), Ireland, and anyone else who been hiding in the lurker section.

C'mon, we don't bite...hard.

Here's your questions;
1. If you won $1Million dollars, what would you do first?
2. Which celebrity do you most resemble?
3. If you could live one day over in your life, which day would you pick?
4. If you could live another person's life for 1 day, who would you chose?
5. If given the opportunity, would you travel into space?
6. If you were forced to, which high school course would take again?
7. If you created your own cocktail, what would it be called?
8. If you had to chose only one, would you chose to be beautiful when you're young for a short time or when you're old for a long time?
9. If you wrote a novel, what would it be about?
10. What super power would you wish to possess?

There ya go. So if you're here and you've never commented, this is for you. Just leave your answers right here in the comments or a link to your own blog.

I'll be very hurt if you don't comment and will probably have to seek some sort of therapy due to your blatant rejection.Looking forward to hearing from you.

I thought of you when I saw this... but in a good way.
