Because I love a good one,

list that is. I've decided to jump on the 101 things to do in 1001 days. So I've posted a little counter on the side bar. You have to scroll a bit to see that will officially start on August 1st. Which gives me 4 days to come up with my lists.

So I'm going to pull out some colored pens and start a pondering my goals for the next 3-3/4 years. Some will be small, some will be extravagant and some will be just plain there for some shits and giggles. So I'll brain storm and then oganize, oh how I love me some organization. There may be catagories, heck there may even be diagrams and charts. I wonder if it is cheating to make #1. Create a list of 101 things to do in 1001 days?

All I Can Say Is

TOO DARN HOT
From the show "Kiss Me Kate" (1948)
(Cole Porter)



It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot

I'd like to sup with my baby tonight
and play the pup with my baby tonight
I'd like to sup with my baby tonight
and play the pup with my baby tonight
but I ain't up to my baby tonight
cause it's too darn hot
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot

I'd like to stop for my baby tonight
and blow my top with my baby tonight
I'd like to stop with my baby tonight
and blow my top with my baby tonight
but I'd be a flop with my baby tonight
cause it's too darn hot,
it's too darn hot
it's too darn hot

I'd like to fool with my baby tonight
break ev'ry rule with my baby tonight
I'd like to fool with my baby tonight
break ev'ry rule with my baby tonight
but pillow you'll be my baby tonight
cause it's too darn hot
it's too darn hot

*BRIDGE*
According to the Kinsey report
ev'ry average man you know
much prefers to play his favorite sport
when the temperature is low
but when the thermometer goes way up
and the weather is sizzling hot
Mister Adam for his madam is not
cause it's too too
it's too darn hot, it's too darn hot
It's too too too too darn hot

I'd like to call on my baby tongiht
and give my all to my baby tonight
I'd like to call on my baby tongiht
and give my all to my baby tonight
but I can't play ball with my baby tonight
cause it's too darn hot

I'd like to meet with my baby tonight
get off my feet with my baby tonight
I'd like to meet with my baby tonight

cause it's too darn hot

I'd like to coo with my baby tonight
and pitch some woo with my baby tonight
I'd like to coo with my baby tonight
and pitch some woo with my baby tonight
but sister you fight my baby tonight
cause it's too darn hot
it's too darn hot

According to the Kinsey report
ev'ry average man you know
much prefers to play his favorite sport
when the temperature is low
but when the thermometer goes way up
and the weather is sizzling hot
Mister GOB for his squab,
a marine for his queen
a G.I. for his cutie-pie is not
Cause it's too too too darn hot
It's too darn hot
It's too darn hot

This is the wine I would serve if i had dinner with the boys.



If I had these three to dinner I think I shall never be hungry again.


Anthony Bordain

To feed my stomach.


Arturo Perez-Reverte

To feed my mind.


Leonard Cohen

To feed my soul.

Ah what a fine meal that would be.

Tomorrow's dinner party will be with the girls.

The Four Things A Girl Needs.


A Diamond Tennis Bracelet

Although I did hear somewhere that diamonds on a woman under 40 were tacky, I do believe that may have just been sour grapes. I've also heard the same about true red lipstick and I am definetly in disagreement with that.


A classic Chanel suit

A friend of my mother's said if you have a Chanel suit you never have to worry about anything ever again. This is the same woman who sent my mother a Dior baby dress for me when I was born. "Because a woman should own a Dior at least once in her life". I do believe this was a very smart woman.

I prefer the vintage black with white trim from the early sixties but would be just as happy with one in ballet pink with black trim. With those two suits and a few perfect blouses you have a complete wardrobe.


The perfect pair of Louboutin sling backs

Because they are the perfect pair of Louboutin sling backs. Nothing more needs to be said about that.


Alfa Romeo Giuletta Spider

Hermes scarf over one's head, big sunglasses and the open road. Bliss!

I'm a new auntie!


Bobby Jo Baby

My darling friend Nat has a new baby on the way. She is a darling girl and will probably grow up to be just as fabulous as her older brother Vegas.


Otherwise known as the best dressed pup in town.

I cannot be happier for Nat and her growing brood.

It's all in how you say it.


"I never said, 'I want to be alone.' I only said, 'I want to be left alone.' There is all the difference in the world."


It appears that when the work has taken almost every second of my life for the past 18 months and i'm given four days off I apparently need to sleep for two of them. Granted I did spend one of them drinking with Craig Darlinik. Even if he did post a audio post of me sounding like I have no nose but at least I'm asking those pressing questions. . Now if you'll excuse me, I have some daytime tv to watch just to see what it's like.
