Cocaine Princess here.
I still have a little bit of the flu bug in me but I’m doing a lot better. Thank you all for your well wishes. I'm not quite sure what was worse; the chicken pox, the flu or my lovely and memorable day in traffic court? The flu is just as awful as the chicken pox. The only difference; I’m not itchy.
It's well after midnight and I can't sleep. I can't even get 40 winks tonight and on top of everything else we're in the middle of a 2-day storm. Mother Nature why oh why? Valentina insisted I stay with her until the spring. Maybe I should have. Along with the mountain heap of snow we already have, we received in one day a total accumulation of 15cm and another 20cm of snow is expected to fall later on in the day. Yippee! Yesterday was a snow day as will be today so 'A' is home from work. Since I came down with the flu she looks at me and then lets out a sigh. That's her subtle little way of saying, 'you should have listened to me.'
Speaking of my sister, on Sunday I asked her to write a very brief entry on my behalf. Had I known she was going to rant about me not listening to her and about my stubborn personality and then dig deep in the family album by no means would I have given her my password.
Since I'm wide awake I wish to make something very clear.
I'm not stubborn.
I just don't like being told what to do and I always stand my ground.
I don't quite see how that makes me a stubborn person.
Last night was the season premiere of Hell's Kitchen. All 16 chefs had to prepare their signature dishes for the tempered chef. One female contestant owned her own culinary school and is a culinary instructor but had no formal training. She charges $300 for a 3-4 hr cooking lesson. Chef tasted her dish (he said it looked like a cooked diaper) and after tasting it he spit it out and asked, 'You charge $300 to teach people to make that crap?' The contestant replied, 'I teach manners too, Chef. '
In the end the blue team lost and Ramsay chose contestant Will to hang up his jacket. 15 now remain.
My loyal and dear readers have an incredible Super Bowl Weekend!! It's one of the very few and rare days out of the entire year I will allow myself to devour pizza, suicide chicken wings, subs, Doritos with dip and yummy Margaritas without feeling too guilty. Actually I will probably skip out on the Margaritas. I consumed enough during the holidays. Come this Sunday I will be glued to the tube watching the game like I do every year....well only the commercials. I don't pay attention to the game.
XOXOXOXO,
Cocaine Princess
