To Charles

Posted by on April 26 at 14:52 PM

Yesterday you made a public plea for me to curb my “uncouth habit” after catching me walking up Pine Street while eating a slice of pizza. Neither ladies nor gentlemen eat and walk at the same time, you admonished.

Purchasing that slice of chicken garlic pizza last Friday was rash, and my excuse is rather flimsy: I was hungry and I had places to be. However, I believe starving oneself is tasteless and being late is tacky, so I had ordered my meager dinner “to go” thinking it was the lesser evil, and prayed no one would witness my obscene food faux pas.

Alas, you have the eyes of a hawk, Mudede. It pains me to think that this altercation has damaged your opinion of me. Last night I thought hard about what I could do to rectify the matter and prove to you that I am a delicate lady worthy of your esteem.

For the rest of this week I will post a short photo-journal of the lady-like pursuits that occupy my evenings.

Tuesday, April 26

5:00 pm: I returned home from work and changed out of my work clothes. Time to tidy up the nest!

6:00 pm: My roommate came home after a stressful work day. I would normally give him a good shoulder rub to help him relax, but my hands were already busy making dinner. He had to settle for a stiff cocktail and a smile instead!

8:00 pm: Dinner’s ready! Last night’s menu included crab salad with asparagus, avocado, and lime vinaigrette and charred ahi tuna with pasta puttanesca. Yum!

9:30 pm: After eating (at the dinner table in our formal dining room), there was just enough time to clean up before bedtime.

10:00 pm: I settled into bed with my Bible and a night-cap.

But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect. (1 Peter 3:15)

That picture proves what several forum posters have long suspected: Cienna is hot.

Congratulations, Cienna. Mission accomplished.

I love you Cienna!

Of course she's hot--sheesh.

Cienna: no one likes eating on the run, let alone in public, but sometimes it has to be done and your excuses were hardly flimsy. Don't go 100% elegant on me or the engagement's off.

You changed out of your work clothes in order to vaccuum in a party dress and red heels?

napoleon, if you think I would let her walk around my house in denim and sneakers...




cienna, I have a hemorrhoid that needs to be lanced, so consider your evening booked.

Time for more pictures!

This time, let's see a little more Prada!

Cienna, you messed up, you know it.

Now, apologize and move on.

c'mon, that had to be a Lean Cuisine! People who eat pizza on the run don't eat like that at home, do they? Damn, i'm starving now.

Well, she's all you'd ever want,
She's the kind they'd like to flaunt
And take to dinner.

Well, she always knows her place,
She's got style, she's got grace,
She's a winner.

She's a lady, whoa whoa whoa, she's a Lady.

Oh sheeeet, i just realized, it sounds like you missed American Idle. Oh, i'm being stupid, you probably TEVO'd it. Right?

LOL Charlies being all Victorian and republican about when women should eat.

Flip him a bird and move on.


Seems like she did, in Cienna fashion...

(and IMHO a return to manners wouldn't be such a bad thing, naybe fewer peole would get shot...)

Is Charles the same guy who loves buildings to be nothing more than rectangles standing on end?

Charles is one weird dude.

A woman like you is most certainly a blessing from the Almighty!
A beautiful woman with obvious domestic talents and the willingness to use them is certainly a rare but wonderful phenomena these days.
Do you believe in arranged marriages?
Could I introduce you to my eldest son?

hey! i sold you those shoes!

"...(W)hoa whoa whoa, she's a Lady."

Whoa! Actually that would be America's REAL sweetheart, Kim Komando, KTTH, Saturdays.
