Got trounced at tennis yesterday ,losing 5 of 6 sets .But thats no surprise when your as coordinated as a pregnant hippo .

For some reason nobody wants to play doubles with me ..............

Carla & Judy are very patient and I will always be grateful for that .

The usual saturday at work ........wore the black cocktail waitress dress , first did the Concierge Lounge then with Shireen the pt bartender worked a wedding .The only thing about it that stood out from the other about 40 some other weddings moi does every year was the mother of the bride and the bride were about the same age being in there mid 20's . Actually it was the step mother of the bride with the brides daddy being about 50 .Both bride and step -mom looked like over grown BARBIE dolls .Siobhan who was banquet captain overseeing it all and I couldn't tell if the father of the bride ( who was youth obsessed down to the diamiond stud in his left ear ) was more proud of seeing his daughter get married or showing off his so much younger trophy wife .................

The brides actual mom was a 40 something who seemed a whole more mature then her ex hubby . By 10:30PM the reception had dwindled down to a few people so Shireen was able to handle the remaining 30 minutes alone . Moi packed up and was out door by 11:15 pm ...............
Even after being on my feet since morning for some reason had energy and didn't want to go home right away .The old town seemed lively , brite lites and many people out for fun

. Deciding where to go was the problem , if I was still single or mated but a cheater like I was it wud have been so much easyer to find someplace to go and have fun .

.My first thought as heading to the big gay area called THE TRIANGLE , always fun there and never fail to run into someone we know there. But soon decided not too. mainly since if there I'll drink and as a alcoholic won't know when to stop . Have to risk getting a drunk driving ticket or arrested or even causing a accident when I finally did leave . Also the whole issue of peace at home came to mind . If I'm down there alone folks will talk and rumors will start and with the way folks exaggerate things & (

) my history you know the rumors wud be really nasty . After our recent trouble definitely CANNOT afford any of that either

.Then the idea came to mind of taking a long walk along the Ohio river , there's a beautiful park that runs alongside it . Always is so peaceful oh so quiet at nite with nobody around

. But after a few seconds wrote that off.............. going there wud be asking for trouble .Didn't want to risk running into any serial killer or pervert waiting in the darkness for some woman to come along

. Then gave some passing thought to dropping by some neighborhood bar or even going over to this one hillbilly/clay eater bar where they have the best C&W juke box in America and cheap drinks . Decided against it too , didn't want to risk running into any of my people and it can get downright depressing being there late on a weekend nite when it's full of single moms from 21 to 50 who are usually lonely and broke with storys about some scum bag penis person who did them wrong . Good lord that could have been so easily been MY life !
So it came down to taking a chance and stopping by a coffee boutique and maybe stumbling in on something interesting or in particular going to our one of our friend Frieda's coffee places. Decided on that , heading to the one she has by the university where I 've worked before. I never went to college ( bet nobody can tell either.............

.

) but areas around schools can be fun . Always something going on week-ends. Driving in right away picked up the real slower than usual summer feel of the 'hood. Downtown may have been hopping but there around the campus it seemed just so slow and easy going . Probably since most students were gone with only a few going to summer school . As I got into the area saw a few partys going on along with student types coming and going .Nice though

After I parked a guy complete with a helmet passed me on a skateboard while a pair of young lovers walked by hand in hand happily looking into each other's eyes .
The university area may have been low key but when I got in to my surprise Frieda's place was jumping ! Full of people and not just customers but a actual party was going on .The lites were dimmed , music was playing and there were a bar and buffet table . Moi was so surprised that like a dear in car headlites I just stood there glaring in disbelief . A real lively crowd talking & laffing away too .With most being in there 20's and 30's but with a few as old as 65 or so . A few set of my gaydar too.

Just as I was about grab a drink and some munchies and book a even more hectic and stressed looking Freida popped up out of nowhere with tray of canapes saying something like 'god your here , I'll pay you $5 to stay and help with this party " I laffed at first then thinking 'why not ' put my purse in her office and went to work as server/bartender for the next few hours .
Although it was work wasn't as demanding as the hotel or country club or even Frieda's place when I've worked there days or at the poetry slams . The crowd was having so much fun I got off on there vibe often talking and laffing along with them . They were all from a community theater group that had been putting on a play for last 2 days . About everyone seamed obsessed but in a nice way with putting on pays , had everyone there from the actors and director ( the 65 year old lady who I also heard had financed the whole thing ) and crew from the set definer to make -up people .Even the ticket taker , a nerdy looking white guy about 25 with greasy black hair and huge dorky black rimmed glasses but who was having the time of his life.

Always like seeing fellow losers happy ! But even more liked the mix and fun both the straight and gay people were all having together .
The last partygoers left around 2:30AM leaving me , Frieda, and for awhile the other server a eastern European girl named Barbara sitting at a table having left over wine and munchies. Poor Frieda, the scheduled two other servers had not shown up ( which she says is alway a problem when dealing with help who are students ) and she'd been left up the creek having to run run run . I know the feeling , get that way when the bar is swamped. So she was right happy to see me walk in ! Makes me feel so appreciated

! But I still joked I have to stay away from the place since whenever I walk in soon wind up working .

She thought that was as funny then added she almost forgot to tell me that the two older professors who I talk to there have been nagging her about when the next time I work , they can't recall my name but just call me the barefoot princess since I think have always been barefoot when they've been in . Something against the health code but that moi likes doing and fits in with the beatnick atmosphere Frieda wants for the place.

BTW Frieda has jury duty wednesday so guess who opens up and runs the place most of the day ? Happy to say will get paid !
