Thank You Marilyn King !

Wound working a double shift last nite since I am greedy and a fool who can get in over hear head real easily with everything from sex & drugs to over working . First bartending from 4 pm -12 AM then being room service waiter from midnite to 7:30AM today . Made money , saw some interesting things , and am EXHAUSTED . Currently am downing black coffee so I can make it to the country club to work there................


Did have fun yesterday walking in the rain . As I always say water seems to have a magical effect on me , wiping away depression & anxiety as well as warm inside . When I was out in the rain came across a senior walking a old 3 legged dog name SAM that looked very cute together , a po'd looking mail man who you know wanted to be inside where it was dry , and a very full of herself /deep into macho yuppette proudly jogging no doubt looking forward to telling all her friends how tough she is for going running in the rain ........ Moi gave some thought to shoving her into a puddle but passed . In addition from what I saw yesterday about half of all cars in America have to be silver SUV's too..........


My 18 hour shift at the hotel really wasn't all that bad . It certainly began good enough . After getting there was able to take a long hot shower in the locker room . The water pressure is intense and the hot water never stops . Also was able to pleasure my self as well. The combination of the fantastic shower and self sex experience had me in a good mood . It was fun dressing up , first the flesh tone undies then matching garter belt , followed by the nude stockings when as I pulled them up and snapped them in laffed thinking about how much fun I have had in the past wearing them . That's included everything from just feeling sexxier in them , how much they added to sex with men and the one butch I have slept with , as well as just doing amusing things like accidentally on purpose exposing the stockings tops or snapping a garter .......... :lol :Must say pantyhose have there good points but have never really been able to have as much fun in them . After that putting on the black cocktail waitress dress and a dark silver chain feeling very pretty and slightly dangerous .


Picking up my shoes went into the employee cafeteria and was in such a good mood even the dismal ( new word ) food they had didn't bother me . In the hallway saw my buddy Bob in security and hugged him then gave him a kiss on the left cheek which made him happy . April who was MOD saw all this and looked surprised then joking she'd leave so we could be alone . We both laffed so not to have her feeling left out I hugged her but didn't kiss her . She's a great but still a boss and my policy is to never to do anything with my mouth to a manager unless it 's to save my job or make more money .It's a long story I'll tell here someday ................... After that Bob walked me and my bank up to the Concierge Lounge where I spent a few hours , including breaking the rules and having a snack of some caviar and 2 merlots . The Chang/Chong / Chung crew and all the other guest for the same wedding were staying on the Concierge Floor and a few dropped in . Including Xena Chong with freshly done hair , the crew had spent most of the day getting there hair and make-up done . She was very excited , and not just about the wedding but the army guy she was talking with on her phone . The red head Cory popped into to with who I guessed was her bf , a tall thin good looking guy who you just knew was bound for success. No surprise heard him say he's off to Duke University MBA school this fall. Hope he stays away from strippers there after that one dancer got all those rich boys from there in trouble with her lies of being raped. Cory was bursting with pride at having such a up and comer for her man too .


A few of the other people drifted in a long with some regular guests and it was all so civilized , management should have had a photographer in to take pictures since it was perfect for the classy but relaxed image they want for the hotel But the calmness and sophistication were demolished when the one girl Betsy Chong came running in with a beautiful bouquet of gorgeous red roses sent by the nerdy looking 1st lieutenant . She was awe struck with happiness about getting them , it just jumped right off her . In fact she was so happy she could barely speak All her friends gathered around to admire the flowers and enjoy her happiness about getting them . One 40 something guest not with them joked to his wife " Ah young love , what can be better " with his wife being so happy about it she was grinning from ear to ear even though she'd probably never seen Betsy Chong before.


Then the girls got in a big discussion about what Betsy should do next , it boiled down to either sending him a e-mail or calling him to say thank you and open the door more. Betsy thought calling might be to forward but most said she should call. At 1000 miles a hour she was going on about how Chinese women aren't that aggressive ( although she seemed as American as me ) and what wud her folks say , and it was all happening so fast she didnt know what to do . I just smiled being very happy for her but kept my mouth shut since as a peon it's not my place to get that friendly with the guests . Speaking for myself I wud have invited him over t the wedding or met him later for some mutually enjoyable 'pleasure'..................... Moi has a habit of getting laid at weddings anyway which is something else I will have to post about soon . No decision had been reached by the time they left but did learn more this morning ...............


Those women's reception was at the classiest country club in town and I was sorry it wasn't here so I could see. For awhile was stuck in the Concierge Lounge since the management trainee who was supposed to relieve me didn't show and wasn't answering his radio phone . Don't know where he was but he did show up after almost a hour . Cassady ( her daily new shoes were orange stilettos ) and I working a 150 person wedding which was the same old same old .Cassady did manage to tell me she's cheating on her married 38 year old rich married bf with a 20 year old black guy who she giggled is hung like a horse . She honestly thinks her older bf will ditch wifey when the kids get older then marry her and also she'll be able to keep up the extra fun with young meat like the latest guy . Good lord , she makes Chandra Levy look smart ...............


As we were leaving the somewhat stressed out nite manager Jim asked us if one of us wud stay and work rom service since the usual waiter had not shown up . Something that does happen on week-ends since there all young and get caught up in partying . Cassady looked shocked/angry that they'd ask saying NO 1 but then in typical neurotic Cassady fashion got paranoid asking if she'd get fired for turning down the offer. Jim reassured he saying no . In seconds the relieved Cassady was out the door climbing into her huge ' look at me ' candy apple red SUV no doubt off to copulate with Mr. Money or her young stud . Jim didn't 't say a word , just looked at me with this ' It boils down to you M'linda ' look in his eyes and seeing how it was moi just shrugged her shoulders and said OK . Since Karin was working had nobody to go home to anyway and the pay is good , $13a hour plus tips . we need the money for vacation too. Easy work , except for the door to door at 3 AM you don't do anything till 6AM when the kitchen opens .


Was easy and fun too. Down in the room service office managed to watch some tv , have a few more merlots , and eat some chicken Caesar salad . Arnold Haynes the security who is a huge loudmouth who moi has told to f*ck off more then once (it's not just me , a bellman & 2 other securitys have slugged him too ) dropped by with his usual sarcasm asking me how things are in "lesboland " and calling me 'barefoot princes " then joking about hillbillys not wearing shoes . I just looked at him saying to get on with his business or f*ck off since I was in no mod for him being a asshole and wud report him .He joked about it as if it didn't matter then calmed down and got normal . When he's like that he's not a bad guy at all. Very smart too. We go back in a few ways , he's been at the hotel as long as I have and went to the same high school but 10 years or so before. Now I see were both for Obama and heading out on vacation , he's going to a family reunion in Mississippi next week-end .


During the rest of the shift moi killed time by going for a big walk around the hotel . The place is so quiet and peaceful , totally different from the madhouse it is when I'm usually there. Stopped into talk to the 2 Pakistani contract workers who do accounting , nice guys but they kept staring at my stockings feet though Don't think they understood when I told them am in the midst of a barefoot phase, had to bite my tongue from innocently adding "Just like when I was in a undies free phase last year " The front desk was slow , they had 2 check in's but Jim and clerk Melissa ( who has a college degree in hotel administration but they won't put on days since she weighs 200 plus pounds ) were trying to keep busy . In security Arnold Haynes and Charlie whose something like 70 and was a police for decades didn't have much going on . Charlie told me how they had to chase a wino out who came into sleep in the lobby , handle a noise complaint , and like everyone else black or white who works with him what a jerk off Arnold Haynes can be . All he time in the back ground laboring away keeping the hotel so clean were the 4 Mexicans and there new American born a retired air force guy named Marvin . They'd just waxxed the floor so moi took the opportunity to slide across much to the Marv and the amigos delite ............


At 3AM did the walk thru to pick up any menus left on door knobs .First with Charlie who turns out to be a lovable old codger with fantastic family . Has a son whose a minister , a daughter whose a doctor ,and another son who sets up restaurants for PIZZA HUT .Also a grand son whose going to med school . Lost his wife 5 years ago . He started acting like my granddaddy letting me know 'You know kid your not that bad " Then Arnold Haynes took over and he wasn't bad at all . Infact we had fun . Went by one room where we heard a couple making plenty of noise, that kind of noise . Arnold Haynes and I joked it sounded like they were making a porno movie inside. At another room the door was open and stepping in saw the guest sleeping with the tv on . We shut the door and left , old Lena wud have gone in and found money in his wallet . On the Concierge floor heard more love making noise and when we checked out the room found out it's where the blond woman who was part of the Chang/Chong / Chung crew named Rain was staying . Must say I was jealous of all the fun she seemed to be having . Those college women are as wild as they say .................


Deliveries stated at 6 AM and came across Candy & Myrtle 2 hookers who work the hotel . They both came out of a room laffing telling whoever was the john what a great time they had and to cal them again when he's back in town . Although once the room door shut the excitement sudenly shifted to counting there money then the guy it came from , his money not his gizmo was what they really loved . Was glad no one from security was with me since the girls wud have been whisked off to the calaboose. As they moved pretty quick to get out the girls spotted me .Candy seeing me barefoot and still in my uniform started laffing and blurted out " Hi Shorty , see your making some extra bank " and laffed some more . Myrtle whose always thought I was once a coyote who worked on Roy Wilkins street was very happy " I knew you were that snowbird who called herself Tasha or Sasha" I started to say no , just stayed late to do room service and they laffed more joking about how they could tell I really was doing room service . There was no point in arguing so nodded my head , congratulating them for catching on . They were real pleased with Candy pecking me ( she 's good kisser but the again that's her job ) with Myrtle smiling away now sure I was Tasha or Sasha , asking me whatever happened to that albino girl who called herself 'Star ' I shrugged my shoulders saying I heard she went up north .............. Heaven help me if somebody security I don't know or a vice police picks them up and they say I 'm doing tricks .


While that was all funny the best part was when I was about to leave at . Walking across the lobby saw Betsy Chong looking very co-edish in a pink sleeveless button up top and white capri pants .She was obviously very happy and excited . She said hi , thanked me for being so nice during their stay . Said she was 'waiting ' for a friend . I wondered who ? Maybe a certain 1st lieutenant with horned rimmed glasses ? As curious as I was just wanted to get home but then just as I went thru the secure door from the lobby to executive offices saw Betsy run and jump into the arms of the nerdy looking but nice soldier who'd sent her the gorgeous bouquet of red roses. He was in his cammy's too ................hope it works out for them !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Today heading out in a white Lacoste dress ( from a yard sale ) and at the country club there uniform of a white blouse, Kelly green jumper drese, with nude thigh tops and brown flats .

Back less then a hour ago from vacation . Am such a addict had to post right away . No sooner then we had the car unloaded ( having to be very quiet doing it since most of our neighbors we're still sleeping ) my gf is sleeping and I am here typing away ..........


Had a great trip , may not have been Kinghelfer's big motor bike adventure in Europe and Morocco but still a fantastic time on the road seeing a whole different part of America.We were mostly in Boston & it's nearby Cape Cod with one day micro trips in WASHINGTON DC & NYC . Am exhausted and sore from all the walking but renewed & feeling very good .Can't wait to do it again . If I ever win one of them big lottery's definitely wud quit my job and head out on the road for a few years too see whats out there and have all sorts of fun


Will tell about it all for the next few days . Saw plenty of gorgeous scenery from blue grass country here in Kentucky to the hills and mountains that seamlessly blend into West Virginia along with the Shenandoah Valley there . The road from NYC to Boston was mainly thru rolling green hills and you'd never guess you were surrounded by tens of millions hyper yankees. Water too, like when we went on a 3 hour boat tour of NYC's harbor and rivers and another boat tour around Boston's harbor and of course the ocean which is unbelievably gorgeous



Along with my little KIA we also used other ways to get around .Like the subway in WASHINGTON DC which is very space age and clean .Along with the subways in NYC and Boston which were on the other hand old & filthy but in there own way WONDERFUL ! Ships too , like the ones we were on to take harbor tours in NYC and BOSTON and out to the island of Nantucket .While on the last one we ran into a storm complete with this amazing but scary lightning and big waves that had this one middle aged guy who looked and being so hyper & selfish reminded both of us of WOODY ALLEN who was convinced the ship was going to go the way of the TITANIC . Anchors away me heartys ................ Buses too from DC to Boston and even from the campground on the cape to ferry to Nantucket .


Interesting people that sometimes proved surprising and reminded me again that as as much as it seems at times the human race is not domintaed by assholes . At a rest stop on the road from NYC to Boston saw a beefy 50 something who looked like a police who you wudn't think wud be to nice but to our almost shock and joy was a nice guy who had driven all the way from Colorado taking his two adopted daughters about 10 & 12 from China or someplace else in Asia on a big road trip . He was real nice ( had been a soldier not a police so I had been partly in the right ballpark ) , said there mom was flying direst from a business trip in LA to meet them in Portland Maine which I hear is beautiful .Then there was a Polish couple in there 30's with 2 small kids who couldn't have been nicer and even knew about the Kentucky Derby who helped chase away some of the contempt I had for all things Polish after a disastrous experience at work with a bunch of them here on contract . They always seemed to brag about being Polish and trash talk America Glad to see there all not like that . Have a free place to stay if I ever get to some place called Cracow . Also pinicing at the Boston Common park some Canadians who usually tend to be nice folks , this time a 40 ' ish coupe from Toronto ( the wife was German woman complete with blond hair & blue eyes with her husband was a tall muscular black guy who looked like a professional athlete ) who told us they expect the population of Canada to triple to 90 million people in 30 years .That was interesting , also logical since Canada is such a great country . Could see myself living up there real easily . Not just since they allow same sex marriage but since there smart enough to have national health care and realistic gun control and like I wrote Canadians seem so nice. Some other nice and stimulating people too , like the 2 guys who were Boston fireman we met at famous Irish bar and the lesbian couple we met on Cape Cod a week later . More on those very very stimulating experiences later


Still am tired and need more napping . Have to work tonite to at a big wedding at the country club of all places. Today probably in lite blue T shirt and with jean mini and at work there happy uniform of a white blouse , Kelly green jumper dress along with nude garter stockings & brown flats .

[Lena]

Does feel good to be home although if I had the bank wud gladly give up the place for the life of a professional traveller The apartment even with the 'vintage ' or really junk 5th hand furniture looks & feels wonderful .There's a nice breeze blowing thru the street window now which may not feel divine like a ocean breeze but still feels pretty good. The cats won't leave us alone , Marie says they really missed us . But we don't need anyone to tell us that since both critters have glued themselves to us . as I type Fritz the usually alpha male macho type is curled up right next to the monitor and after eating Agatha went back to sleep with Karin .


A few of the neighbors have dropped by , Fawn and John the 50 something worldly couple who stay to the penthouse came by to talk , naturally they've been to everywhere we were more then once too. I felt so sophisticated talking to the likes of folks like them about NYC's little Italy and the Boston Common . Marie too who was the person who mainly took care of the cats . She liked he scarf we got her as a thank you gift at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts . Karin took her camera next door so Belinda could print out the photo of the famous Apollo Theatre in NYC . It was quite the chore to get there ( NYC has a very complicated subway not meant for simple minded people like moi ) but from what Karin said all worth it since it made Belinda real happy . A great auntie or something like that of hers had been a chorus girl there way back in the the 1930's or 1940's so growing up Belinda heard her storys about all the famous people she worked with and others who wud come in to see the shows . Haven't seen Steve the macho rail police from upstairs but am sure he'll love the NYPD sweat shirt we got him , it's double X so it should fit him .


It's sort of funny thinking how in less then 24 hours we were swimming in the ocean and after a 15 hour drive ( made good time , the computer said it's take 16 or 18 hours ) we were back here in the landlocked Louisville Going from the land of clam chowder to the land of the mint julep . About the only bad traffic we had was leaving the Cape when we ran into the spillover from Boston's rush hour . Except for that it was smooth sailing all the way across the rest of Massachusetts and New York state right down thru Ohio . My only complaint was that we missed out on some of the scenery , the sun set about 2000 and we missed out on seeing more of the Catskills mountains But what the hey we made good time and didn't have to wait in line at any of the bathrooms at the rest stops/gas stations along the toll road . It was funny listening to the radio since it often reflected the mood of the trip . Coming into WASHINGTON DC heard of all things a concert by the US air force band that included patriotic music .Then after our 12 hours in NYC on satellite picked up the very New York songs of TAKE A WALK ON THE WILD SIDE and something called YOUR A NATIVE NEW YORKER . In Boston we naturally heard some classical music since the town is so highbrow and eggheadish . As we got into south Ohio I tuned into country gold soon hearing Elvis's KENTUCKY RAN ............


Managed to nap on and off all day but at 4pm or 1600 had to get ready to go into work at the country club . Thought I'd be working a wedding but actually it was a engagement party . That's where the brides family has a thing sometimes s with a band to introduce the soon to be hubby to there closest friends and family .Usually there semi-formal but last nites one was very informal with about only the soon to be bride's mom and some of her generation in dresses and like wise her dad and the middle aged guys in sport coats & ties . The engaged couple were dressed very down , her in a yellow blouse and lime green skirt and the guy in a polo shirt & jeans . All totalled they had about 100 people and I handled it all by myself . After almost 2 weeks in jeans or shorts did feel a little odd to be back in a uniform but it didn't really bother me . Moi is pretty refreshed mentally and the party's atmosphere was so relaxed it spread to everyone even us peons working it . Even my baggy stockings didn't bother me , there from a thrift shop and from the package they date back to the days before spandex was added for a better fit . My legs looked like bones in half empty nude bags since there was plenty of open space between my legs and the nylon themselves and ofcourse there was also sagging making it look like I had elephant legs . But feeling so renewed from the trip and the very informal vibe at the party I didn't really care ..........


Will write some about the trip tomorrow . Don't worry I'll get to the sex parts if only since I want to brag and know more then a few of you are eagerly waiting to hear . We're taking it easy all day today , Karin's going over to her folks while I do errands and nap some more , moi did 9 of the 15 hours of driving back home the other nite so am still tired .Tonite we go to a wedding reception for someone Karin works with , a straight f/m couple no less but hope to get out early enough to hit a girl bar and there's talk of dyke party at a loft down on the river. So during the day will be in a slate T shirt and gray cotton gym shorts and my Scholls while tonite a lite blue with a white floral print dress that has a sweetheart neck and hem just below the knee with nude stockings & white heels .

[Lena]

A nice brite and quiet sunday morning . Life is slow and easy which is perfect as far as moi is concerned .Been up for about 25 minutes, checked the tv for news, fed the critters, and made coffee. Now being the FF addict I am sitting in front of the machine ........................


Things are quiet outside, even though this is a big city there's a real low key slower then molasses southern atmosphere . Suits me since I am still tired from the trip and always love slow sunday mornings . Your whole mind and body can feel relaxed and you get happy just for being alive .Do wish we could be at our tent there along the ocean back to Cape Cod since a sunday morning there wud be like being in Heaven but being here in our little condo is good enough for me . Both cats are now giving themselves there usual morning baths while Karin is still sleeping .


The wedding reception last nite was a bore, really just one of those social things you have to go to for the sake of your spouse. Everyone should know what I mean . Karin had gone to the actual wedding sitting with other people from work . The reception was at house they rent for partys , in old Louisville which is very nice. They even had valet parking which always makes little person me feel rich and important . The brides a attending Doc Karin worked with in the e-room and the groom sells medicine , both about 35 .Seating can be very political at receptions and right away I knew where we stood being at the next to last table in the place.This one full of himself Doc and his peppy wife both about 35 too at our table didn't seem to like that either and looked a little shocked /annoyed when I said being shoved someplace to the rear or where you can't be seen is the story of my life. Karin was embarrassed by my ironic humor and made a joke about it . The husband of the head of medical records though got a colossal hoot out of it though .


Dinner was good, lamb with a jelly type sauce & dark rice .The bar was free and moi had about 5 merlots .Talk at the table was a little strange , the full of himself Doc and his energetic wife more or less only spoke to another couple who were doctors and to a female Doc and her teacher bf ignoring us. It wasn't what Doctor full of Himself said so much as the message he and his wife were trying to send out they had perfect lives.Both going on how they vacation in Miami , have 3 perfect trophy kids all doing great in school and also at there tennis lessons /language tutors, and own a Hummer .Must be nice to be perfect ............. I bet he really beats her and she's a dope fiend. Everyone else was more low key and guarded about what they said , a little stiff but still better. When Karin said how we just got back from the east coast the lady who was head of medical records named Renata brought up how she has a cousin in Boston while her husband this construction foreman named Jack talked about being in the army in Washington DC and loving it since there's something like 4 women for every man there back then . Nice enough . They have a son whose a state conservation officer stationed right by where I was born too .


Once the music started everyone was of dancing or socializing .Our table son filled up with mostly other nurses talking shop with Karin . Right away knew I was on my own since Karin gets caught up in shop talk .So after siting there for awhile smiling & nodding like a robot headed to places where you go when your alone at partys : the ladies room .,the bar , and outside to 'get fresh air ' .Passed by Doctor Full of Himself talking to some other men about making a mint in a real estate investment while his wife ( who had the muey cool name of Morgan ) dancing trying to look youthful and just oh so happy . Alot of kids all having fun on the dance floor ,especially when the band played that Chicken dance song where everyone gets to make a fool of themselves shaking there bootys .There were plenty of adults on the dance floor too. But just like high school nobody asked moi to dance ....................


Felt more then a little left out ( especially after looking over at Karin caught up in a intense talk with the other nurses ) until out of nowhere came Beverly Krusell whose about my age and the cousin of my friend Ronnie Raye who I have written about here. Nice to see a friendly face and also Bev herself, haven't talked to her in years . In fact we hadn't spoken together since before she went into the navy .Still has alot of attitude with to much make-up just like when she was a kid and in low cut purple dress that she seemed to be bulging out off . We hugged and pecked, met her bf who was named Rico ( no surprise since he looked like a Mexican ) then sat down to talk .Both of us were surprised to see the other at such a classy event , after all girls from the slums and rich doctors classy wedding receptions don't exactly go together . But Bev was there since she was a medical transcriptionist in the navy and is now the office manager for the female Doc .


Nice to talk together , nothing like a friendly face there with all those people I have nothing in common with not being rich and also not being in the medical field . Nice to see Bev has made something of herself too , good lord at 13 she 'd run off with a musician who was something like 10-15 years older and later was a major doper . But now there she was maybe with way too much make-up and in look-at me flashy & revealing dress but still with a decent job you know they can't export to Asia and seeming a whole lot calmer/more mature then when we were kids .We really caught up .......she hadn't seen Ronnie Raye since the fall but was happy to know she and Tom & the kids are fine . Although like me Bev was worryed about Ronnie Raye going to the museum of creationism which is a hotbed for right wing religious fanatics . Was happy to I was with Karin , saying she always thought I was gay . Didn't go into how I don't see myself as gay but as a pomosexual since deep talk like that really doesn't go with partys and drinking . There was nothing serious between her and Senor Rico though , just a date . Although she did proudly showed me how long he could get with her hands............... He saw it all looking over from the bar knowing exactly what she was talking about smiling from ear to ear too . What penis person wudn't since there so vain about there gizmo's ....................


We really caught up about people we knew. Looking back two things really stood out about that . The first was that it was all so different from the talk I'd heard from the other guests .Those people and me & Bev were for all practical purposes from different planets . Doctor Full of Himself and his wife may have really pressed the envelope trying to paint a picture of having the perfect life but whenever you heard others talk it was in the same ball park .I passed by 3 men talking about there yachts one even had satellite tv and Internet aboard , another pair of middle aged couples planning a trip to Greece, and this one 50 something lady happily telling a table full of other women about her recent combination face lift & boob job . All of it generally saying money and the good life.


Now with Bev and me it was usually the other way .............a longer then long list of storys about wild times when we were kids and sad to say also a longer then long list about the sad fate so so many people we knew had waiting for them .Among them Larry Tatum who was a grit , now find out he died from a OD years ago. A friend of Bev's who I always thought was nice named Brenda Wager is now fat and a single welfare mom staying at a SRO in a crappy neighborhood by downtown and , Bev's own sister Jeannie was just diagnosed as a paranoid schizophrenic which means her life is over at 23 . I know it sounds angry and mean but when Bev told me a really vicious guy named Dave Irving wound up meeting the grim reaper at the business end of a pistol in Arkansas moi could only nod her head and with a little joy in her heart say how it only made sense he'd go that way ............


The second was how both Bev and I as imperfect as we is really are survivors from that world where most guys end up dopers then inside ( prison ) or dead with women tending to become single welfare moms except for a few times when they have some worthless and abusive man in the house . After we finished going over the sad fates that were waiting for so many of the people we knew think we both tryed talking about some of the others who are doing allright to not be so gloomy . The list was shorter but still was happy to hear how some are doing real good in spite of coming from hell . At one point Bev and I were both dating guys from the Mays' family who were black . Steve who was my squeeze now has a used car lot up to Indianapolis ( he alwasy liked business even back in the days when he was selling weed ) while Greg who was Bev's bf works at car factory near Cleveland making that still big autoworker pay . Marika McCoy this black girl who was real smart but nobody liked since she was so loud & angry & pushy who I thought had blown her life away having a baby at 16 , dropping out of high school , and having another kid at 18 is now believe it or not in her last year of dental school back east . While Danny Brewster a fellow 'billy who seemed dumber then a stick & had a hair lip is now a sergeant in the marines . Three cheers for all of them !!


I'd hoped that wud have wiped away all the talk about the bad stuff that happened to so may people we knew , it was just so f*cking depressing . But after some small talk Bev took a long slug from her glass and said how her , Ronnie Raye ,and I are lucky too not to be stuck back in the West End and not getting wiped away like so many others from there.. I smiled and said yes suddenly feeling very grateful and lucky and also as strange as it seems humble . After that we sat there silent but definitely in sync...................


Soon Senor Rico was there smiling from ear to ear , still pleased at Bev's bragging description of his long as the Mississippi River penis . In it's own ay it really was kind of cute, the guys up in Boston were long to but not neither stretched that far ! Good for Bev . He and I made chit chat , Bev may not see him as serious relationship material but he seemed like nice enough guy to me . Works for DHL which is a big delivery company . I pecked them both ( wonder if he got even longer if that was even possible from Bev's description , after sex with men last week moi has penis size on the brrain ) and headed back to get Karin . Later she told me how she was glad to see me , was worn out after the long bout of shop talk We try keeping the physical stuff low key at straight events especially when there kids around but last nite since it was late stood there saying good -byes either holding hands or with our arms around each other's waists .


In the car home Karin began to go on and on about all the work talk she'd heard .............the personalitys , storys , and rumors. All moi could do was ask a few questions and think just how lucky I am ......................... I feel even luckier this morning looking around our home too. Will tell her all about my talk with Bev later.


Today in my seersucker dress that white with a lite blue pinstripes and a button up front . Have to work at the country club again today , naturally in there uniform of a white blouse & Kelly green jumper dress along with nude thigh tops and brown flats .

[Lena]

Just back for a few days but feel like I need another vacation . 6 hours on my feet yesterday at the country club done did me in . . Everything from my toes to lower back are sore .More soaking in the tub later today .


But luckily don't have to be back to the hotel until wednesday That's always alot harder then the country club with more people and more noise.Of course after being on the crowded and noisy east coast I should now be immune to crowds & noise............. The hotel being the hotel am sure much has happened since we left the other week .People always get fired, there's scandals galore and ALWAYS a million stories about the guests


All that will be fun but still really not enough . Coming back from such a stimulating trip ( and I don't mean just our cheap tawdry but oh so much fun sexual encounters in Boston and Providencetown ) but whole thing of travelling without a whole lot of money , seeing so many interesting places, and coming across some good people .Real life back home is anti-climactic really !!! Don't want to get stuck in a rut , have to find something to keep the excitement & stimulation keep coming . Now have to start thinking exactly how to do that ...............


The country club went all right yesterday .Meghan and I worked the big lunch then stayed to work a private party . They all love the server May Wah whose from China and going to law school but she's gone for the summer . Now back to China being the translator an guide for some rich members at the Olympics.yesterday someone brought in a laptop and they had a video phone call over the ' net with her which a big crowd wanted to see. All this May Wah worship can get on my nerves even though I do like her . I don't need anyone telling me in another way how I was born under a bad moon . Even normal people have to get irritated at this taking another person and making a star out of them forcing us all to worship them . But what can you do? Besides I do actually like May Wah and she's always been good to me . May Wah too does look alot less formal and tightly wrapped being on the road , good for her .


After leaving went home to find Karin and her folks chatting away . Moi was more then a little embarrassed since I came in barefoot with both both thigh tops around my ankles . Although it's always accidental I often end up doing something embarrassing/low class /too informal like that when I see them . Diane gave me a shocked look while Brad suddenly realized he had to go to the bathroom .All was fine after I kicked off and threw the stockings inthe garbage and oh so politely & briefly pecked Diane on the cheek . They were nice enough , wanted to see there eldest daughter after she'd been gone . They even brought us over this huge dinner from this Italian restaurant theye've been going to for years .Lasagna , antipasto salad , penne pasta ..........we have enough food for the week . Some nice small talk , they liked the pictures and home video that we took on the trip . Naturally we didn't show them our 5 minute amateur porno movie with the 2 fireman in Boston . . After they left we joked " Here's Karin at the USS CONSTITUTION at Boston harbor, oh look here we are on Beacon hill now . Ooops there's your daughter is being sodomized by a Puerto Rican fireman with me masturbating while watching "


They were all real happy about Karin's dad not having had a heart attack 2 weeks ago , it'd been a severe case of indigestion which still got disgusting . After his stomach cancer 2 years ago there always worryed about his health . Can't blame them . Moi was even upset about Brad since he is after all my gf's dad and has been decent enough to me .he's now on a special diet to prevent anything like that from happening again .In lite of his strict new diet we held off pigging out on the delicious Italian food till after they left . Karin's sister's baby is due any day ............everyone is happy about that too. Although knowing what having a cocksucker for father is like moi worrys since the daddy Matt is such a selfish angry overgrown child ............. Oh well can only hope for the best .


After some mroe soaking we're going kayaking today which will be fun and fits in with my wanting to do more with my life after our stimulating trip . My white bathing suit is in the washer now , got dirty on the trip and very mildewy on the way home packed under the luggage in the trunk .On top will be a lite blue T shirt & falling jean cut-offs....................


Tomorrow will start telling about the trip or as I call it BIMBOS ON THE ROAD . Starting with leaving here and driving across Kentucky then West Virginia to Washington DC . Spent the nite at one of Karin's cousin's in Mount Vernon Virginia then the next day hit DC .

BIMBOS ON THE ROAD IS IN MY OTHER BLOG IN THE REGULAR BLOG AREA............



Didn't think I 'd make it on the machine this morning . The computer was acting funny not letting me connect to Yahoo.Really was annoying But before I called India and had to waste several hours and get a headache from those people's high pitched stinging accents experimented ( I'm good at that , at least with sex, drugs , and alcohol ) unplugging and replugging the modem and router and low and behold was able to get connected .


These computers are really voodoo , there supposed to be so scientific but in the end it can be black magic dealing with them when they don't want to work . I wonder how many other women have broken down into tears like I wdid when I started using one having all kinds of problems and how many fights they started between husbands & wife's, bf's & gf's ......................so dam frustrating !!!! In the end calling India and getting a ear ache and head ache or spending hard earned money for a repairman can be the only answers .


There's also going to a witch which I bet some people however logical and not superstitious they usually are were so frustrated they wud try . I wonder if back in the hills people also call Marla Hobbler who was this crazy woman who thought she was a real live witch . As I recall as much nonsense as she was some folks wud call on her for things like love potions/spells or to cure them of some sickness or get rich . Even to make sure there old 15 year old beat up pick-up truck or heap of a car started in the morning . I can just see some yuppy type showing up at the door of her insulbrick cabin with there computer that isn't working and 'ole Marla doing something she claimed wud get it going again like putting the machine in the middle of a hexagon and doing some chant or maybe speaking in tongues then cutting a chicken's head off instead to get it back working ? The computer will drive you to desperation !!!!


But mines working now and all 's fine . Yesterday we did go kayaking , twice no less. In the afternoon we went down to the Ohio River and headed out for a few hours . Was fun , we passed by barges , cabin cruisers, canoers & a few other kayakers. Most were nice, have noticed boaters can be a right friendly bunch . A couple of yuppys passed by who told us about a moonlight run there kayak club was having hat nite and invited us along . A whole bunch of people get together and with lit up boats at the front and rear or in sailor talk bow and stern paddle down the river at twilight seeing the whole city lite up as nite fell. Sounded fun so we committed then went back to shore to do some err ands. Amazing how people can stare at you at the post office just for mailing bills, especially when your 2 women both in only swimsuits .


We made it back to the ramp at 7PM to find about 25 people mostly in the 20 -30 something age range with a few 40 somethings and this one senior trying to be young & cool with his white hair in a pony tail and gold stud in his left ear . A little too inbred for our taste, most were only interested in talking to each other not the 2 new comers. But the president a heavy set guy named Eric and a thin intense looking woman about 30 named Rhonda more then made up fro them by being real nice. The guy who invited us named Mitch eventually showed up and was nice too . Anyway after explaining how we all had to go in a line and stay within the two lite boats at the front and back we headed out .People's personalities at least as kayakers came out right away , some joked , a few name dropped about past kayak trips ,and one guy looked very very committed if not slightly fanatical about being in his boat .


Everything was gorgeous from the river. The city looked magical as the lites came on , even the neon signs were pretty . A few boaters passed by and were real friendly too. Mitch the presdent of the club went up and down the column checking on everyone sharing his enthusiasm about our little expedition . As always I felt happy and at peace on the water , actually having more fun with more people around .Karin liked it too The old guy trying to be young & cool was funny in a weird way , his idea of being cool seemed to involve trying to get everyone to sing KUMBAYA as we paddled down the river. There were no takers though , no surprise.


Back on shore the crowd broke up real quick , no time to linger or go out for a drink since tomorrow was a work day . The old guy was trying to get everyone to head out for some herbal tea but we passed , wasn't our thing and we worryed about ending up all sitting around singing geezer folk music listening to him go onabout soemthing like having been a hippie a jillion years ago . Instead going to a girl bar for a few drinks ( in moi's case numbering 5 merlots ) and late dinner . Ran into a few friend and talked about the summer , I think boring them with the news about our vacation too. By the time we left it was about midnite . The boats stayed on Karin's car all nite and are still there this morning .Guess it wud be real hard for a thieving junkie to run off with a boat .


Work later today at the country club again , my 3rd time since saturday .Tonite bartend since Carlene is taking the nite off .I have to wrap up the final details for her wweding shower today since it's this saturday afternoon .Really do have my energy back after the hard trip . Feels wonderful to have one's mind ( or in my case what I have left of a mind ) and body charged up ready to take on whats the other side of our front door .


Today in pre-fadd brown tank top and lite grayish green canvas short mini . At the country club there uniform of a white blouse and Kelly green jumper dress with suntan thigh tops & brown flats .

[Lena]

Did manage to get BIMBOS ON THE ROAD...... up in the regular blog area , it's there for all of you to see This is a G-rated edition , no sex just a wholesome description of our drive to DC going thru beautiful country , having fun in the car , and meeting some nice people .The writing about our cheap & tawdry but oh so so much fun sexual encounters is coming up .................


Worked at the country club lat nite bartending . Easy enough , maybe too easy since most people don't stay long and don't drink much . Alot of the time I am either just standing there smiling or trying to look busy .You get the after work crow when some come in after a hard day at there law firm or doctor's office wanting a drink to chill.Hardly anyone has more then 2 drinks.Then there's the folks having a drink to kill time waiting for someone to have diner with in the dining hall. At the most there may be 2 hangers on , always divorced guys I think there not so much to drink but just to not be alone . Last nite had this 4 something guy Al whose the manager of a high tech factory who is divorced and while real friendly and a good tipper is pretty sad . I also get drink orders from the dining hall,have benthere long enough to know whose in for dinner from the combinations of drinks . When I get a order for a martini and Singapore Sling you know the Mc Michaels are in , likewise 2 sherry's mean the Goddard sisters ( 2 60 something spinsters ) are there and a beer and Vodka martin tells me the Sorenson's are around . Haven't been wrong so far .


All the last minute details for Carlene's bridal shower are wrapped up , thank the stars ! It's this saturdays at Tally's ( a server on days ) cabin on the edge of town , should be pretty . I pick up the cake that morning from this new french bakery . It's a FARBERWARE shower , Carlene says she always wanted kitchen full of Farberware but could ever afford it but now she's getting it . Moi got her the frying pan . Meghan won't be coming since she has to work which will make me the baby of the group ,since all the other women are 30-40 somethings . Hope they don't mother me ..............


My old friend Ronnie Raye called too after her cousin Beverly told her at a family thing sunday how she's run into me at the wedding saturday . Ronnie Raye sounds good, says she's lost 5 pounds and things are good at home with her hubby & kids. She told me all about the big trip to Creationism land with Corvah and her kids along with Leslie and baby Grady . Sounded hectic , but you know anything involving 5 children wud be . She said it's a nice place, dedicated to saying evolution never happened . Good for them since there were places for the kids to run and play . But moi warned her not to make a habit of going there or the next thing they'll all be watching the 700 Club on tv which is a fundamentalist right wing spectacular involving all sorts of mumbo jumbo that gets so insane it's hard to describe , sending hard earned money to those religious con men on tv, and claiming to be holier then everyone else. Ronnie Raye laffed at that ever happening but then ominously ( new word ) offered that some of the things she learned at Creationismland made alot of sense ........................


Go back to the hotel tonite after 2 weeks . Have divided emotions about it .....................am rested and up for more work but really wud rather not be going back there . Moi does have a pretty good schedule and plenty of friends there but at 28 want to be doing something more then bartending . For the time am stuck there since selling real estate now is impossible since the housing industry is in a depression . Also eager to hear all about what happened while I was gone . The place is a more then a big hotel but a huge soap opera with crazyness always happening . After 10 years in the saloon business have heard it all but still can get a good laff as well as good shock hearing about wild events . Only hope nobody I like got fired or is in trouble .


Today in T sirt ....shocking pink with old jean cut-offs however sans undies . I feel sexual and recall the time I came when just walking around undies free in jean cut offs and hope it happens again today ................... Tonite at work the black cocktail waitress dress , nude garter stockings , and black flats and also UNDIES free.................

[Lena]

Almost unbelievable ..............yesterday this blog that usually gets 100-150 hits a day got only 40 something hits. My devoted readers /audience where for art thou ? I checked twice to make sure and had to swallow my pride and realize how we didn't get much traffic . But right after was down right amazed to see how in the last 24 hours my latest entry in the regular blog area had 585 hits ! Good lord, that has to be some kind of a record for this site . Even the attack threads against me have never gotten so many hits in such a short period of time ................. THANXS !!!!!


Whenever either blog does so well I start thinking of trying to be a real writer and get rich .To me at least I am as fascinating as the HARRY POTTER storys are to so many people . I can dream can't I ? More entrys to come in the regular blog area , the trip really was fun and I want to share it and do know for a fact many out there are waiting to read about our cheap and tawdry but fantastic sexual fun with both men and other women . A teaser being how I teabagged one of the fireman and nurse practitioner Logan sucked my toes then gave me a pretty naughty gynie exam ................


Before going to work again sans undies went out for coffee while Karin slept . Don't know about STARBUCKS employment practices but nobody who was working there 2 weeks ago is there now . A whole new crew except of course the dickhead manager who get down on me for coming in barefoot . Just my luck . Moi had her usual medium with cream & sugar then sitting down in the overstuffed leather chair to people watch . The usual crowd of yuppys , stay at home moms with there babies often trying to impress each other with talk about what geniuses there childrens are , having the best strollers & nannys , there husbands careers,and clothes . Thank the stars I am not one of them ! Also the usual pack of retirees who seem to live there. All part of getting back to normal life for moi . Sad to say even though I wasn't wearing undies and hoped to have a repeat of the time I had the big O I didn't . Even though when sitting in the leather chair there and when getting into/outta my car could feel the seam from my jean cut -offs cut into my pussy which can feel very very nice !


Going back to work was bittersweet .On the positive side was almost jumping for joy discovering my uniform fit looser . Not that I need to lose all that much weight but realizing you've dropped a few pounds is ALWASY great news . The cocktail waitress dress was loose on the side and in the shoulders making me very happy . Today plan to celebrate by having a double dip ice cream cone .In the locker room 2 of the Mexicans girls giggled seeing me put on the garter belt and stockings sans undies . Bet I will be the talk of all the illegals who work at the hotel now .Got nice welcome backs from several of my friends . Including huge hugs from my Barb and Bob in security , along with Rosalind at the front desk ( whose baby is really showing now ) , and Rafael in the bar . Capt'n Tom head of security didn't hug me ( think he feels uncomfortable about that since he has daughters my age ) but was also glad I was back .Most saying how I looked so refreshed and happy , vacation will do that to you ! Even Arnold Haynes the dick who works security on midnites was happy to see me sparing me his usual wisecracks , will wonders never cease !! .


Amazing storys while I was away as expected .My favorite hooker Candy got in a fight with another coyote complete with both women pulling blades out that they only dropped when Capt'n Tom took out his pistol . Both went off to the calaboose .While going to clean up the room Housekeeping a found a guest dead , like Elvis he went while sitting on the toilet .......... what a terrible way to go . Somebody too paid for there room and food with counterfeit money so the hotel had to eat the loss and fedderal cops impounded all the cash receipts to check if they were counterfit too . Naturally none of the bartenders and servers offered up any of the tips to be impounded & checked , I wudn't have either . Also a big sales meeting got out of hand when after too much drinking some of the men stripped down and streaking thru the guest floor they were on . In what was either a blow for sexual equality or to show women can act just as stupid as penis people some of the women who worked for the company soon joined them being nekkid and streaking .


Some fun news too. It's the state fair so we get all kinds of entertainers , some big some used to be big and some up & coming . I think friday nite we have Boyz 11 Men and also several old c & w stars like Jim Ed Brown and Bobby Bare along with 2 of the Gatlin brothers .Not Larry Gatlin though , that wud have been a hoot. My insane and I do mean (((insane ))) auntie Margaret is convinced she'll end up marrying either him or Paul McCartney. In her drug and alcohol soaked mind they will somehow to find there way into the slums of the West End and sweep her off to there mansions to live the life of a queen . I know it sounds crazy but what can you expect from the woman who brought that slime of slime cousin Gaylord into the world ?


The bad news included we may be losing the general manger whose talking to another hotel chain .The managers come and go and to me being the boss are in the end the enemy . But this guy has been pretty fair and good to everyone including moi , he OK'd my 4 day 40 hour week which I really like . So wud hate to see him go . Worst of all my boss and friend Brendan and his wife Marla are having troubles .We go way back to when we all worked the bar at the MARRIOTT , even getting fired there the same day . And in case any one is wondering NO moi never went to bed with them . Over the years they've always been there for me and are a model of what a good relationship should be . Now the word is Brendan has moved out and is moving around between the hotel and a subsidiary property here and in Indiana . Nasty !!!!!! He was there yesterday and while we hugged didn't want to talk about it . Have to wait and see but do plan to do all I can to help . Maybe call Marla ?


Looking deliberately slutty today for fun .......... White sleeveless T shirt that will show off ( ?) the big tattoo of the sun on my left shoudler and jean short shorts . Sans undies again too . At work the black cocktail waitress dress, nude garter stockings & black flats .

[Lena]

Dressing slutty in a sleeveless t shirt & jean short shorts yesterday was fun . Leaving the undies at home also gave me a psychological boost and added to the fun of it all .Being barefoot added to the overall sluttyishness of my look too. Got a few 'looks of lust " from men ( peaking down to try to see if I had anything bulging ) and also a few looks that said ' Good lord , such white trash " from some seniors and women .


At one point I even thought of going over to this bus stop on Roy Wilkins where the coyotes come out early evening asking men driving by if they " want a date " .Didn't plan on going off with anybody just pseudo w.horing for attention and tbh to be a bitch saying " Just joking " .But passed on doing that , worrying what wud happen if someone we knew saw me and told Karin or if I actually got cracked by some over-eager vice police . Sad to say I'm 28 and too old to do something like that anyway never entered my mind .......... When I got to work my friend Bob in security had me laffing when seeing me looking like that asked if I just come from a part time job at a massage parlor ........... Actually a long long long ago gf actually did work at a massage parlor but thats a whole other story moi will save for later ............


Wore the black cocktail waitress dress again. Underneath no undies either making me feel very free Saw Cassady for the first time since I've been back and she was nice enough to tell me how I look so relaxed and tanned . Then being Cassady got picky and competitive asking why of all places did we go to Boston since she's never heard of anyone going to Boston for vacation .I said to see a big city and all the historical things but she just stared blankly back at me . Then was good enough to tell me ( ) how she could never go to any place like Boston but a bf once took her to Reno Nevada which is a mini Las Vegas where she said there were plenty of casinos and great restaurants & rich and sophisticated people . I smiled saying sounds like fun . Then after she turned around I just looked at her thinking how all this acting sophisticated and classy means so much to her but she's a definite flop at it .Goodness me even a ridge runner like moi can see that ! Also told me how weird Norm used to be in the CIA which sounds like something that semi -psycho conspiracy nut wud say and the always naive Cassady wud believe . Wonder if she'd fall for it if I told her it as Loretta LYNN'S granddaughter , from a relationship she had with say SAM GEEZENSLAW ? I bet she wud ...................


But must say despite her competing with me and moi laffing at her pathetic phonyness we did bond and feed off each other 's happiness when we left the locker room and 'paraded' in the gorgeous cocktail waitress dresses to our stations . Guys from our co-workers to guests always leer which we both love . We both smiled all the way too She worked the bar then a big private party while I handled the Concierge Lounge then took over from her at the bar . The Concierge Lounge was easy , no one there till about 5PM or in Euro time 1600 .Then it got hectic with all these exhausted business travellers in for drinks and a snack to recoup . Always hear then saying how hard things are getting and it was all so much easier in the past .No surprise since there's a big recession . You can see the nervousness and fear in some of there eyes . Just like blue collar folks there all scared of being out of work .Moi always does everything with a smile and tries to be attentive ( new word ) sice even though my job is recession proof getting nice tips is another matter . These people so worryed about the economy are not about to just go and leave a 20% tip so I have to go the extra distance to get them to be generous . Believe me if I didn't think it wud get me fired to make more money wud not give a second though to telling them I wasn't wearing undies or showing my stockings tops ..............


The bar was a zoo and the emotionally as fragile as egg shells Cassady was more then ready to book . The place was crawling with people , too many being real loud and some swearing s if they were 12 year old boys trying to sound macho or that one skank Randy who used to be here before being banned who loved cussing .. Cassady also had a running argument all nite with one group how they couldn't smoke . Moi wud have never let it get that far , instead wud have bounced it to the MOD . Bob and Bard from security dropped in and both noticed what a noisy crowd I had with law school student Bob joking how I may be able to file a workman's compensation claim for hearing loss . But I still had to deal with them and others, the 'ole saloon didn't calm down till about midnite when we close m-r . I left pretty tired myself but at least the tips were good It got to me more then I thought , woke up at 3:15AM dreaming the noisy crowd had followed me home and was whooping it up in our living room ...................


Today have to run then get out so Karin can sleep . Will be very very hot today . So after running in a ankle length tank dress, white top and lite blue floral pattern on white skirt that is cool and airy . No undies too . Tonite at work the penguin suit and orthies along with nude knee highs .

[Lena]

Busy but nice day ahead . Moi's tired ( or in hillbilly 'tard ' ) but in a good mood . Maybe since some good things happened yesterday , nothing major like a wild sexual experience or seeing a good movie but wonderful small things that combine to make a nice day . Maybe getting so much happyness from little thigs is because I am not the sharpest axe in the shed but it's good enough for me.


Had a good run getting very sweaty which makes me feel like a super jockette and also like all the impuritys are being drained from my inside . saw the cutest little white dog too and wud have given thought to bringing him home if he didn't already had a owner . Did like going out in my tank dress, it's the coolest as in comfortable not being hip ( something I was never good at anyway ) piece of clothing I own . . The air seems to breeze right thru it which is what you want a 90 plus degree day made all the worse by crippling humidity .Went by the coffee boutique and had a black ice tea which felt like medicine for the nasty heat & humidity I really hope they do something about global arming since having hot summers all year round wud he hell.................


Got to work seeing Capt'n Tom at the employee entrance who shook hs finger and frowned at me trying to come in barefoot which he's told me is a major no no so being diplomatic and also not wanting to get on the bad side of someone whose always been good to me pulled the flip flops out from my purse and put them on to get inside and to the locker room . After I came in like that Capt'n tom smiled saying " Now that's my girl ! " .I smiled back , I honestly don't think he cares but it's company policy or something to come in with shoes . The big problem about the dress code is some of the young black guys coming in doing some macho thing with there underwear exposed .Even I think that's ignorant & immature . Changed into my trusty penguin suit ( white blouse with black bow tie, vest and pants ,all you'd need wud be a cape to have a uniform for a bartender superhero ) and made my way up to the bar . Then was told by Rafael my old partner and now head bartender I was working the Concierge Lounge so had to march right back to Uniforms and pick up one oft eh black cocktail waitresses dresses since the general manager doesn't want us wearing the penguin suit in the Concierge Lounge since he doesn't think it's classy enough for the place. Whatever ! Also since I hadn't shaved went by the gift shop to pick up pair of thick suntan support pantyhose to hide the stubble . You could see it all as a big pain and stupid over-complication but moi took the attitude it was me dealing with crap thrown at me which actually started feeling nice .


On the way up to the Concierge Lounge passed by a older guy in the lobby who seemed familiar............. in a white cowboy hat and a loud red & white Hawaiian shirt reading that WALL STREET JOURNAL and when I looked the second time it was none other then C&W legend BOBBY BARE . I just stood there for a few seconds watching him since he's always been one of my favorites .Even though don't think he's had a big hit record since I was a baby . Some of his songs are funny , some stupid and some serious .In the end he's always a great entertainer whose music leaves me at least feeling good. . On the serious side his songs DETROIT CITY and 5000 MILES AWAY from home are hillbilly folk songs that are about real life . Being about ' billies who go up north for work and get home sick real bad for there people and way of life back down south . One of my uncles said when he first got to Detroit that he was so lonely & feeling out of place those songs reached right into his innards . I gave some thought to asking him for autograph but passed , didn't want to bother him or seem like a hick ( which is what I am anyway ) but now wish I had . Oh well............


The Concierge Lounge was dead and I got bored . But having a few merlots and some of the cavier did wonders for my attitude . Later shifted to the bar which was pretty steady with a singles & young marrieds crowd , the hotel was offering cheap package and we got plenty of couples for a romantic get away .Overheard one 30 something couple say they were using there stay to try to conieve another baby . My favorite customer Mr . Dyson came in too, looking rich & classy in a tan poplin suit . But what else could you expect from a man of the world type like him ? Leroy the doorman told me later Mr . Dyson pulled up in one of the first T-birds which probably costs more then I make in 2 or years combined and like inthe bar tips onthe good side . He's a real interesting mix of blue collar and sophistication , anything he says sounds smart . Our conversation last nite amounted to " Your looking nice tonite Miss" ( ) , " I'll have a boiler maker " and " Take care of yourself " when he booked .


All totalled last nite's tips weren't bad at all. The security Donnie walked me to my car , nice guy about 22 but I felt like his mother .He wants to be a border patrol police so is busy learning Spainish . Back home was able to have a few more merlots then fall soundly asleep getting one of the best nites sleep I 've had since we've been back .


Karin should be getting home soon . Should I try getting her to have some fun of a sexual nature ?


Have to be to Tally's cabin by 11:30AM to set up for Carlene's shower. Even before that have a jillion things to do like stopping for the flowers and cake . Then head to work , another wedding reception tonite . So will be dressed up all day , including for the first time this week wearing underwear . It will be a white polo shirt and tan khaki mini with brown flats for the shower along with the black cocktail waitress dress with nude garter stockings and black flats for work
