The Ultimate Feast...

So, my plan yesterday had been to go to work and just be there for the 10.5 hours I was required to work before I could be officially on vacation. That didn't quite work out. There was just so much to be done and so much I needed to do and things I didn't want to leave undone. So, alas, I was at work for 12 hours and none of it was spent doing what I wanted to do.

I figured after my rough day and to celebrate the beginning of what I hope to be a glorious and relaxing three weeks, I'd treat myself to Red Lobster. So off I headed to 41st Street to the takeout door to get me some lobster to go with the bottle of wine I planned to devour when I got home. Unfortunately, they only do takeout 11a-7p so at 7:45 I'm just shit out of luck. So home I went, picked up some Chinese takeout (not my first choice after lobster!!!) and I relaxed with my very own bottle of Chardonnay. Nice way to start my vacay!!!

Totally off topic, after reading Max's blog I've decided to least my own personal Ultimate Feast:

1) Maxwell - I've loved this man since 1997. I wasn't an immediate fan. My uncle thought I'd love his CD but I just wasn't smitten. Once I bought it, though, I was hooked. Anywhere he was, I wanted to be. Now if he would just drop a new album before I wear out my second Embrya CD!
2)David Banner - I know, I know. But that mix of thugness with the idea that he's intellectually smarter than me is a huge turn-on! I know, I know.

3)Brad Pitt & Eric Bana - They had to be listed together because I can sit and watch Troy ten times over just to look at the two of them. Bodies just sick...

4)Boris Kodjoe - Ordered Showtime just so I could see him in Soul Food. And I want to hate on Nicole Parker for having him but I just can't do it. But Boris, should you ever get bored with her, call me!

5)Morris Chestnut - The makeup artist who worked on Boyz n the Hood did not do him a bit of justice but I could see past it. Knew he was fine then, definitely know he's fine now!! And if he's really getting a divorce, don't let me see you on the street!

6)Larenz Tate - Love Jones is my favorite movie of all time and he's part of the reason why. Now, true, he only comes up to my nipple, but for him, and just for him, I could look past it.

7)Heath Ledger - Yeah, I said it! They make beautiful men down under. I fell for him in "10 Things I Hate About You" and "The Patriot." Just the accent alone gets me every time.

8)John Corbett & Chris Noth - Chris gets a nod from his Law & Order days, but these 2 guys were the real reason I watched "Sex and the City." Forget them other hussies. Even though, just for the record, I'm a Charlotte with Samantha tendencies!!!

9)Common - His earthiness just does something to me. I could watch "Testify" over and over again!!

That's all I can think of at the moment.

Hopefully I'll be able to blog a litte more while on work hiatus. But I'm also going to try to finally do some work around my place. And get some lobster!
