Well, I’ve survived so far but I still have Sunday night to go. Here’s how it has been so far.
Decided to start my Saturday on the town with some food in my belly, so Sit-n-Bull was my first stop.
I was disappointed my waitress friend and potential future date, Samantha, wasn’t there. I sent her a message and she confirmed she was taking the night off. Alrighty then, saved me the cost of the lady drinks she would have consumed.
A couple of beers later I’d seen enough so I moseyed down the street a ways. Where was I headed?
A bunch of Hashers came in and occupied that table a bit later, but I maintained my counter seat where I shared company and drinks with Roan and Agnes. Always a good time with Roan, lots of laughs. Wish I could get her interested in something more than being a bar friend, but she’s been honest and upfront about her lack of desire for anything else. No complaints about that.
It was getting close to 9:00 and that’s when I generally shut things down, but I decided to up my game and have one for the road at Cheap Charlies. The place was really busy and that’s good to see. Well, all my favorites were otherwise occupied. Still, I didn’t have to drink alone.
When I got out of the trike at home I saw this unusual sight:
So, I pushed the envelope last night and wound up going to bed at the ungodly hour of 10:30! Wowza! Slept in until 5:00 this morning though, so all is well.
I did my solitary Sunday stroll this morning. Decided to do one of those “photo every 1000 steps” so I could get some practice with the camera. Here’s how that worked out:
You can always Relive the stroll if you have the gumption:
I made a discovery as I sat down to do today’s post. I always check to make sure I have a unique title. In doing so I came across something I had written back in November 2007 called the Korean cookie lady. I had totally forgotten about the events described in that post. So, maybe my blog isn’t totally worthless after all. It is a repository of memories from a life slowly fading away with the passage of time.
No idea what is in store for tonight. I was hoping for a first date with the teacher, but we are having a difficult time getting on the same page. So, it looks like another evening of beer and loneliness. Not that I’m complaining!
Club sandwiches make me hungry.
Looks to have been a good 10,000-stepper. Thanks, as always, for the pics.
Nice write up from 15 years ago. Do you still keep in touch with her?
Very rarely. We are FB friends but she is rarely on FB these days. I did send her a message with a link to that post, so we’ll see.
What’s funny is that back when I wrote that I was Deputy Director. A year or so later I became the Director and wound up hiring her as my Deputy. When I retired she became Director. What goes around, comes around!
