Yes my loyal and dear readers the story about the banana split continues because I know you've been on the edge of your seat with my last couple of postings.
By the time we finished our sweet delicacy which had more or less become a milkshake Valentina’s verbal reign of torture had ended. And thank God it did. I was starting to think, "forget the duct tape. Where can I buy a muzzle?"
As we left the mall we walked past the parlour. Mr. Mauve Socks was working hard scraping the inside of the cup in a circular motion trying to get every last bit of ice cream. "I feel sorry for any woman who goes on a date with that man.," said Valentina. "He'd probably insist they share one meal and then make her pay for dinner along with parking and gas."
We headed into "Little Switzerland" to pick up a small number of things. The shoppers outnumbered the employees and that meant a lengthy wait. I didn't mind the wait but the person I was spending my Easter weekend with did. "I wish these tourists would ship out and leave already. They're cutting into our precious shopping time."
If Valentina had it her way she would banish every sightseer from the island until she was done with her shopping.
"Shall we come back in a little bit?” I asked. "Maybe if we do the crowd will have died down."
"Yes, let's," she replied.
On that particular day there were so many people crawling all over the island much like ants going crazy at a picnic. I lost count how many times someones over sized bag hit me in the shoulder or how many times I was questioned, "Excuse me, do you have the time?"
Upon leaving the store a tourist was standing near the end of the sidewalk with his camcorder. "Why is he filming the street?" she questioned. "Maybe he's capturing the essence of the island," I replied. Even though her sunglasses were on I could tell she was rolling her eyes.
At the back of the mall were numerous free standing shops and the items we were going to purchase at L. Switzerland we manage to find the exact same in another store. Although the wait was just as long we decided to stick it out.
After a hard day of shopping we made a stop at the spa. I decided on the margarita salt scrub treatment. It felt good but I smelled precisely how a margarita smells. I didn't want to wash it off otherwise the sparkling glow left from the scrub was going to disappear. I sprayed several layers of perfume to drown out the scent.
Later that same evening Valentina and me got all dolled up for Easter dinner. Like every night the skies above were clear and sparkling. Following a luscious meal it was time for a little Rita Hayworth. I had won $5.00 on the slots a few days earlier. I was hoping my fortune at gambling would be far better this time. Not so much the case. I left the casino with an empty purse.
In spite of getting a tender sunburn on the tip of my nose and being assaulted by an oddball mosquito with terrible aim I had a splendid time during my Easter Vaycay. The best part of it all, dining in my favorite restaurant every night.

Thank you.
If you can believe it, I LOVE being in a mall when it's super crowded --
GREAT dress!
THANK YOU FOR THE DECENT SONG SELECTION!!
Anna at 4:58,
Thank you.
Same here. I don’t mind so much shopping when it’s crowded either.

In honor of Mr.Clifford “King of The South” J. Harris Jr.
366 days to go.....
Margarita salt scrub treamtment? Hearing that is a first for me? LOL. But I don't hang out in spas that much either!
P.S. The only busy shopping day I can stand is Black Friday. Sorry Anna!
Boo-Hoo Mr. Harris is in the clink. Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time. You're "honoring" him?! Hello! The idiot was caught by an undercover FBI agent trying to buy unregistered machine guns and a silencer. Not exactly a choirboy. Forget the machine gun buy attempt, he was a convicted felon in possession of firearms, which is another felony good for five years, just by itself. Wow, it must be nice to be rich. Pay off the judges, and get a ONE YEAR sentence for a 10 year offer?!?!?! PLEASE....It's pathetic.

That's okay most guys don't.

You don't hold anything back, do you?
You're Easter Sunday dress is a little to hot to wear to church! ;)Looks gorgeous on you Princess xx
Umm… I read he was “required to voluntarily turn himself in” … what part of “required” makes it “voluntary”???
And they “acknowledged that he had commitments that prevented him from being jailed before”
The next time I commit a crime I’ll make sure to let the judge know all my appointments so s/he can schedule the prison time accordingly.
Elise at 9:18,
Much thanks Elise. I didn't go to church on Easter Sunday. I wore the dress to Easter dinner.
9:58, Dumb ass you need to go back to sleep and wake the f*ck up. No one said he was a ‘choirboy’ but purchasing guns for your own protection and shooting someone are two different things. It’s not as if he used them to shoot and murder someone and then got a year and a day.
As for his sentence, being as it is (just) more than one year long, he will be eligible for early release, should his good behavior warrant it. Had his sentence been one year or less, he would have been required to serve the duration of the time behind bars.
Is Semper Fi even cute enough to look act? I can't help but wonder.
Love the dress!
Bambi at 10:44,
Hmm, well I guess it depends on what your definition of cute is.
1. I agree with Valentina about the man scraping the ice cream. tisk tisk on him.
2. I just generally hate malls. I much more prefer small stores and boutiques.
3. I love the new layout...and the songs. You have FAB taste I must say.
10:40, We are governed by federal law. He is a convicted felon. The 3strikes your out Law is a federal law, that most states have adopted. The silencers carry mandatory sentences. If it smell funny, it is funny. The boy had too many serious charges against him, for it to come to a year. You got dudes doing a year for not paying they child support, or DWI. Gun charges are a little more serious.
How does a convicted felon with multiple priors get caught taking possession of machine guns & only do two months? What we have is a SNITCH!!
BTW, Makaveli IS ALIVE!
if more girls wore that for Easter, i do beleive i would apply to become the mayor of the Easter parade....
I can only imagine what your face looks like if the rest of you is that appealing. Its fun not knowing though....its like Wilson from the show "Home Improvement." I loved that show! That dress is very pretty!!
Anonymous is making your blogs comments fun...I like the back and forth. LOL

I read it was Alfamega.
As for Makaveli being alive, that rumor has been floating around for how long now?
Slyde at 10:03
I giggled at your comment. Much thanks.
Steven at 12:19,
Thank you.
Is that the tux you wore at the wedding?
10:11 - T.I. did not snitch to get his sentence reduced. The sentencing judge called it “experimental.” The U.S. attorney who helped broker the arrangement called it “unique.”
Alfamega WAS the snitch. The Smoking Gun's investigative reporters uncovered evidence that Alfamega was a Drug Enforcement Administration informant in the mid-'90s. He was not open about his past, it didn’t sit well with T.I.. Alfamega failed to disclose this information to T.I so He got rid of the rat.
There is no way he’s going to get to do two months and there are the reports of them giving him credit for time served when he was under house arrest is bogus.
The guns werent T.I.’s his bodyguard was the one who bought them. Read this and do a search. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/11/20/AR2007112001427.html
Yes it is....I'm afraid to ask.....how does it look? I thought it was going to look awful but if you see the pic full size....I doesn't look bad :)
I would email you some other pics...thats the only thing that sucks about us all being friends and stuff on here....we have to keep it on here...lol. oh well. Still fun.
Steven at 8:34,
You look great. Crisp and clean. Just post the other pictures on your next entry.
Even if he has one of the best legal teams in hip-hop, Guns, drugs, and bullets, 1 year with community service? Damn near impossible deal!!!!!
Interesting remark @ 10:11, C’mon CP you being a big believer in “signs” you don’t think Makaveli is alive?
Anonymous at 10:31,
Chuck D. still believes he's walking among us.
Im not sure how to do that...I haven't really messed with this software too much....plus some of them shouldn't be posted...lol.
P.S. anon- He is dead.....let it be. For this reason and the fact that the record label and others are greedy are the reasons why his legacy and rep is being crushed. Its been over a decade.....let it go.
