Actually spent the waning hours of last night chatting up my favorite bartender, all the way to closing time. Not sure if I should have made some kind of radical approach before leaving. She really seems to like sidling up next to me and talking, but maybe I'm just an interesting guy. Did I overhear her mentioning a boyfriend when talking to one of the other patrons at the other end of the bar? So hard to be sure in that hubbub.

Had a nice afternoon yesterday, even if the snow made the roads nigh impassable. Took a friend to see an art exhibit, but she was more interested in the new consignment store next door, especially since she might be able to sell her jewelry there. I was interested as well once I find out they have a wine-beer-and-food party there every Thursday from 4 to 7 p.m. They're practically on my walk back to my car...

"I've never gambled in my life," she told me after I related my plans for Vegas this weekend.
"Nonsense," I replied as I lit her cigarette. "You're gambling right now."

So my friend and I (and possibly her roommate...a dude, drat it) are driving to Vegas, where she intends to spend a lot of her time drinking.
"I have my hip flask," I said, "in case you want to be discreet."
"Fuck that," she replied.
"I like that," I said. "Discretion is the better part of Fuck That."

Woo hoo! I've made it all the way to Silver membership! Just proves what the application of a little hard work and paying attention to the rules will get you. Enjoy it while it lasts, I know I will...

Great poker game last night. Oh, I didn't win, but the bar had a Wi-Fi connection, so I got to play with my new computer and show the bartender my movie. Then I gave her my card ("rsbrandt44, Manos Historian") and suggested she call me sometime and maybe I'll show her a real movie. She seems open to the suggestion! I may have to go there every Tuesday night. Well, after next week; the commute from Vegas might be a drag...
That's assuming the Vegas trip is a go for Friday, of course. It's been postponed three times already and I haven't been able to raise my travel companion on the phone for a day or two...

I now have a spanking (heh heh...he said spanking) new IBM ThinkPad so I may be able to access my blog a bit more frequently (including letting you know all about my trip this weekend to the fleshpots of Sin City...woo hoo). Still can't connect to the wireless network at my apartment complex though...somehow I can't get it to give me an IP address. Will soldier on regardless.

I slid on that big slab of black ice at the entrance of Albertson's that the store still hasn't done anything about. For some obscure reason, when a couple of people trotted over and asked if I was all right, I didn't answer, "I'm not sure, but can I subpoena you later?"
Damn. I walked away from millions. Well, limped away.
My left calf is a little sore and so are some of my toes on my left foot, but fortunately I drive an automatic. I'm motoring out to Las Vegas next weekend for a Super Bowl party. (Actually that's just incidental to my trip but it sure sounds more impressive that way. "Hey, hon! We've just been invited to a poetry reading at the Sorbonne! Let's hop in the Airstream and go!")

Went to a meet and greet for one of the local groups last night. Met some very nice folks and did a little karaoke (one song was even in my key). One attendee made of me the following observation:
"You have kind of a Bob Newhart sense of humor. If they aren't intellectually challenged, they'll get it."

Sorry if I haven't been as loquacious of late, but suddenly Tranny FriendFinder has dumped me directly into a streamlined Mobile version every time I log in via my iPod Touch...and by "streamlined" I mean "gutted," as in: no blogs, no groups, no magazine...none of the extras that make the entire Tranny FriendFinder experience so worthwhile to me. Oh, there's a link I can click on to get to the full version, but as soon as I log in, whammo! I'm back in Mobile again. (With the Memphis blues, too. Or not)
I've complained to whoever is listening at Tranny FriendFinder support, but it may just be something I have to deal with until I get my new laptop delivered Monday.

Because I had a Victoria's Secret credit card, I would occasionally get an offer in the mail for a free pair of panties. And because I was a single guy, I would have to find one of my lady friends who would get all excited over the prospect of a pair of panties from Victoria's Secret. (And who wouldn't? Heck, I was taking a girlfriend shopping there once and the cap came off of a bottle of eyedrops on my pants pocket. For a second there I thought I'd got overexcited just walking through the place.)
Anyway, the time would eventually come for me to hand my friend the shopping bag from Vic's (yes, time was they were Vic's and Fred's to me; I saw so much of those stores we were on a first-name basis), at which time I'd routinely say, " You know, used to be when I handed a woman her panties it meant something else was happening."

Spare Room to Rent

Got a call from my friend the Catwoman, who may soon be free to move down from Littleton and is keenly interested in renting my now-available spare room. We've actually been through this before, and she was really just interested in using me as a stepping stone on the way to getting her own place. I suppose I knew the jig was up when I visited her and the following exchange took place as we hugged goodbye:
Me: "I love you, Catwoman."
She: "I love you too, friend."
Naturally the first two thoughts that flashed through my mind were:
"Oh, great. The F word."
And:
"Damn. She doesn't even remember my name."
Anyway, I have no doubt I'll be taking her in if that's what she wants; I can use the money, hers is as good as anyone's, and it might be refreshing to have a lady friend again who has her own income.
