Happy Monday All!!!
The weekend was a stressful one. Contactors here to get estimates on new windows for the living room and three more for a remodel of the kitchen. I might add the one was a gorgeous man...and could he fill out a pair of jeans. I do believe the mother even noticed I couldn't take my eyes off his ass. Sweet Baby Jesus. But even more stressful was the selection process of what to take and not take on the impending trip. When not abroad, I tend to over pack in general. But traveling international and paring down is hard for me. So I settle on classics, standbys, and things I know I always look good in. One suitcase is tough. I have two this time. A large and small one. I can tell you; airport staff get bitchy and their panties in a twist when they see a trolly coming with streamer trunks and hat boxes!!! But I'm good at mix and matching outfits to make more outfits, and inner mixing casual with dressy to get some nice eclectic looks. The deed was done yesterday. The kid came out in me and even carved two pumpkins. Today, a nice sleep in, and then maybe a toil in the garden...mostly relaxing and viewing more horror movies. The Mother has a reservation for tonight at 1700. She insisted on taking me for my birthday dinner since I'll be just freshly arrived in Portofino on my birthday. Otherwise, I'm all set. Getting worked up about the airport already. But I'll make sure to wear some nice jeans and sexy undies, just in case I hope I get pulled for a strip search by security. I meet MM#1 Fan at the Philly terminal, and while waiting, I will most likely have my traditional two gin and tonics...and two enormous pills to steady me...and then the two pep pills I will take that morning- the pep pills...so you see, I'll be already flying, before take-off.
Here's to a good Monday!
The fifth one down gave me a bigger jolt than my morning coffee's!!!!! Then I recovered and got jolted again with an even bigger whooper!
ReplyDelete"two gin and tonics...and two enormous pills to steady me...and then the two pep pills I will take that morning- the pep pills...so you see, I'll be already flying, before take-off." had me in stiches!!!
The Amalfi Coast!!!!!! I was once...and it is gorgeous!!!! Do you have room in those bags?!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteI love this mood board! Beautiful pictures and some nice sizable treats too I see. Love the doggies.
The packing was already stressful enough without having to make more room for a body!
DeleteGood to know you start as you mean to go on, dear - off your tits! I can just picture you two like Patsy and Eddie, staggering around Portofino with bottle of fizz in your hands!
ReplyDeleteHave a great trip! Jx
and surprisingly your probably not far off.
DeleteYes, I would have to agree with Ms. Moorecock on this one. You hit the nail on the head dear.
DeleteGreat Mood Board.I expect a full report upon your return. Remember, I live vicariously through you and your trips --- wherever they may be.
ReplyDeleteplease... with your assets, security will think your smuggling something out in those jeans.
ReplyDeleteYou've got a lot going on right now! Have a wonderful trip!
ReplyDeletePortofino. I went every summer for about 5 years beginning when I was 20. Haven't been in such a long time, but I can still imagine myself wandering, sitting, and having Campari and soda. I can't wait to see your photos and read your stories. Great mood board.
ReplyDeleteYou had me at Campari and soda.
DeleteI always love your autumn mood boards! It one of my favorite seasons.
ReplyDeleteAnd tell me about workmen..I had one here once doing work. His tee shirt and jeans were so fitted, I could see his religion. I thought I might jump him!!! Enjoy being felt up if you get striped searched.
LOVE this board...especially the one of the window looking out with the cups of coffee sitting there. Such a vibrant, if not slightly naughty board...but we didn't expect less. And Gloria Swanson...always a favorite.
ReplyDeleteThe things I'd do too Mr. Bradford without those orange underwear!!!!! My idea of the day...I should come and be your assistance while on this trip. I mean doesn't Ms. Moorecock need a break?
ReplyDeleteOh , he is so dreamy isn't he???
DeletePAUL LYNDE!!!!! LOL!!!! Please I hoping you get pulled into security just for the juicy stories, who are you kidding?
ReplyDeleteTundra Bunny here...
ReplyDeleteThis is your best Halloween mood board yet, Maddie... the hair is standing up on the back of my neck and there aren't even any wolves howling nearby -- real ones, that is, LOL! Hope you have a memorable All Hallow's Eve, a happy birthday and a great time in Italy!
Thank you Tundra!!!! It should be a memorable birthday that's for sure.
DeleteWait till the next pre-scheduled mood board!!!!
Happy travelling my naughty friend.
ReplyDeleteThat second photo is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI'll skip the cup of tea and buy the house instead.
ReplyDeleteIll skip the tea and the house and just enjoy the meats!!!
DeleteOh, babes.
ReplyDeletePacking IS stressful. But you managed to do it! Yay you.
And I was scrolling down and got an eyeful. I should know by now. He could come and visit my Cabinet of Curiosities, BTW.
XOXO
I'm shocked! Shocked I tell ya!!! The first cock belongs to Keegan Whickler....and he has me obsessed 24/7. I have maybe even told him I would be his cum bank anytime!!!!
DeleteBon voyage! I love church graveyards. My favorite is in Maryland, where Scott & Zelda Fitzgerald are buried. The last sentence of The Great Gatsby is on his tombstone: So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.
ReplyDeleteI know you'll manage your outfits perfectly and look great all the time.
Love,
Janie
I love a good graveyard any time. I lived next to one when I was in Bucks County for those 25 years. In Philly I bet you'd love Laurel Hill. If you ever get this way, I would take you there. I think you'd love it. I have done several post on it.
DeleteMy father's moto for packing, take half as much stuff, and twice as much money. It is not like you are going to spend a lot of time with clothes on anyway. Enjoy the trip.
ReplyDeleteOh snap!
DeleteWhose side are you on Penguin?!?!?! lol
DeleteI love this week's mood board, and in case you don't post again this week Happy Birthday!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you.. thank you my dear
DeleteFly my beauty, fly!! Have a wonderful trip!
