better luck next time
having been away for 5 days, i am panicing at the pile of work that is on my desk, and the number of calls that need to be returned. i really should be tending to that, but blogging is just way more fun.
the trip to the t of oronto was good, ladies, but i missed you all (all 3 of yous who formerly lived there and the one that currently does, but was on her own vacation! my luck!) just to let you know, nothing has changed. there's still too much traffic, and the pad thai at the queen mother is still delish. and my friends that i stayed with that have a baby? well it really makes me want to have one of my own. especially one you can bundle in a puffy pink snowsuit and pink baby uggs, oh man, you can die with cuteness.
but i digress... what i really wanted to tell you about was my comical reunion with the c. i was excited to see him, as i am every day when he comes home from work, but last night, well, it had been 5 days and 4 lonely nights without my c! i totally was ready to get it on! of course, so was he. (he always is, please refer to hick's post "the score" for other instances.) we were also hungry. so we made a plan: we would order dinner, and while we waited for the delivery we would take care of business. sparing you the details, i will relate this: no sooner was the phone hung up, we were rolling around happily (on my bed! i heart my bed! there is nothing like my bed!) (i believe i posted about that once also...)
the reunion was going swimingly! oh what snuggly fun! when... the phone rings. i made the c answer it thinking it way be the restaurant. it wasn't. it was a client, and instead of politely and quickly telling the client to call back later, the c passed me the phone. many minutes later, i was back with the c, but unfortunately the man needed a little fluffing. (refer to ms ms's post on that subject.) at last we were back in the saddle again. phew, that was a close one. interuptions of the cliental sort are not so good for the "mood", iykwim! so there we were, rocking and rolling, when from outside i hear: slam, crunch, crunch, crunch, ding dong! (apparently the call had cut a significant chunk out of the "between the order and delivery" time!)
there was a mad dash on the part of the c to pull on some flannel bottoms and a t-shirt! ding dong, the door went again, as the c sped out of the room and down the stairs, all the while worrying that certain things were, um, "protruding". he needn't have worried about such techincalities, as when i joined him downstairs i saw my loveable husband standing there with his shirt on backwards and his pants backwards and insideout! (the label of the pants concealing the lifting action there beneath...)
this morning it was commented: "well tonight i hope we have better luck..."
