I'm not sure that I have five things to make a post this evening, but I had to say something so I could use my new sparkly tree icon (made by the talented [livejournal.com profile] rainbowgraphics. I love my shiny tree lots and lots.

Hmmm, what else? Well, I have a ton of time I need to take off before the end of the year or I lose it, so I'm not going to be working a full week from now until 2011. Woot!

Ripley has gotten smarter. I used to use a stuffed tribble to get her to jump into bed (and be easily catchable) at bedtime She'd jump up to hunt it, and then I would snag her and put her in her little doggie nest. She has decided recently that this is no longer acceptable and refuses to be seduced by the tribble. I have to turn off the lighits and get in bed, and she will jump up, make a wallow, and go to sleep.

I'm a bit pissed at the moment, as I turned on Bravo to find The Real Housewives of Beverley Hills on instead of The Fashion Show. Where did The Fashion Show go?

Last week, I had a tender sexy and hot sexy dream about Gordon Ramsey. Now, I don't find him classically handsome, but I love his smile and how totally alpha he is in the kitchen. Okay, and the fact that he's a fucking chef. So anyone else have any chef kinks? Bourdain? Coliccio? Ripert?

[livejournal.com profile] blooddrop is made of AWESOME. Somehow, the bottle of 8:30 AM (a scent I love with an unholy passion) I ordered spawned into two by the time it arrived in my last order. Also, she included a sample of a new lip balm, Kiss Kiss, and it is wonderful. Let me just say that my lips were dry, parched and cracked. The Burts Bees Pomegranate Lip Balm was doing nothing to help. I thought, "Well, it can't hurt," and put it on before bed. I could actually feel and see the different in the morning. My lips were softer and fuller and definitely healthier. That sample couldn't have come at a better time, and I'm hoping Kiss Kiss becomes part of the normal line up.

Also, of note, it is supposed to be below 20 degrees (Fahrenheit) tonight. WTF? This is the South. It isn't supposed to get that cold. Brrrrrrrrr....

Yeah, I can totally get with that Gordon Ramsey thing. For me it's a competence kink. I love it when people are really good at something to a ridiculous degree. Nice dream for you. ;)

Bundle up!! xo

I can see that, yes. And yes, it was very nice. *winks and purrs*

You are awesome to feed my 8:30 AM habit.

And I wasn't kidding about the Kiss Kiss. I don't know what's in there, but my lips LOVED it.

Soy butter, avocado butter, macadamia oil, almond butter, apricot kernel oil, vitamin E..... :}

o.k. we'll just keep this between ourselves, but I think Michel Roux Jr. has a bit of a twinkle in his eye...

Oooo. Not familiar with him. *googles* But I see what you mean about the twinkle.

Anthony Bourdain - he's cranky and opinionated and sometimes rude, but he's also (imho) funny and brilliant, and loves what he does to the point where he's willing to occasionally let random people tattoo him to commemorate an adventure. Which I dig.

I wouldn't refuse a day out with Andrew Zimmern or Adam Richman, either. :)

From: [identity profile] savageseraph.livejournal.com


Yeah. I really dig Bourdain too. I was thrilled he was going to be one of the regular hosts on Top Chef All Stars. He is wicked funny and clever.

Tom Colicchio has something. I have to admit I always kind of wanted someone to write Tom/Sam or Tom/Tre fic.

Ripley is kind of catching on to my technique to keep him from seeing the deer when we walk. He hasn't fully got it yet but I can tell I'm going to have to come up with something else soon.

I'd like to see Tom/Spike because Spike needs a good, hard spanking. Now Tre/Angelo or Fabio or Angelo/Fabio would be totally hot.

The furry ones are more clever than we give them credit for, hmm? Right now, with how cold it has been (and since she has been behaving herself), I'm not minding the bed thing.

From: [identity profile] foxrafer.livejournal.com


I'm afraid I want to cause Spike and Angelo too much physical pain to read any fic with them. :-) Fabio on the other hand could be very interesting.
