Saturday - Fun & Prizes!
I was charged up Saturday because I cleaned a bunch of stuff off of my to do lists. So, I cleaned up, sprayed on some Joop! (my favorite hot weather scent), and made for the BS for a ****tail reward.
When I got there, there was a band from a neighboring town there. They were super loud, and they must've brought half of that town with them. As I waited for the bartender, I scanned the scene. The place was jam-packed with fatties, but on the other side of a supporting beam across the bar sat a black haired chick. I only got a glimpse of her, so I couldn't tell if she was an FUG or not.
Judging by the crowd (fat heifers, noone I recognized), and the loud, sucky band, I didn't want to stay. I finished my ****tail and split for the WC.
The WC was dead as fried chicken. I recognized a couple faces, so I parked it at the bar. It turns out I sat next to Tall Dude (TD). He was dissapointed with the crowd too, and said that he was going to head to another venue. I asked if it was convenient for me to tag along, and it was, so we headed to another place back in Madison that I've never been to. Coolness! Along the way, and at the next place, we chatted and I found out more of his background. It turns out that he's 29 and going through a divorce/has a kid. Ooops... but, I think he'll end up being a formiddable wing: he's my age and single, not to mention not a dumbazz.
That place had a suck tribute band, and the crowd was light, so we headed back to the BS.
The band that was there had cleared out (thankfully). Guess who was sitting at the bar: HBUma. The first thing that popped in my head was that she didn't return my call - NEXT. But, the "small town boomerang effect" put her back in my face, so, I'll play out scene 2. I headed straight to her:
V: *grabs arm, leans in to speak in ear* "Are you here alone?" (I was going to pull her out of the bar directly, no jacking around, just yank her azz outside/isolate/makeout)
HBUT: "I just got here, my friend is coming." *Door opens, friend walks in*
V: *I turn around and meet up with TD without another word*
FYI: Her friend steady "mean mugs" me. That is, she gives me the stink-eye whenever I'm talking to HBUT. Her friend is about a 3 or 4, so, basically she's a FUG/coxbloxer.
Well, well, well... it turns out TD has cozied up to a black-haired HB8 and was playing one of the nudie touch screen games with her. So, I slid up on TD's side. Dangit! It's the girl that was sitting behind the post! Grrrr... I'm all about the black-hair! Phooey! And SHE's playing nudie games??! Suh-weeet!
I didn't know the background with him and this chick, so I didn't want to game her outright. From what I could tell, they had a good raport. Since I didn't know if he had been working on her for a while, I didn't want to interfere. Again, I don't want to step on toes.
They invited me to help with the game, so I was leaning in across TD to reach the screen. He didn't dig that, so he prompted me to move across to the other side. (I was thinking: uh... you sure? Ok, if you're cool with me rubbin' up on your girl.) I did, ordered a drink, and played with them. We were joking around and having a great time. At one point, I noticed that the black-haired HB8 had a rose tattoo on her chest. I reached up and slid her shirt back to check it out. Uh... she didn't flinch, made strong EC, giggled... you know, gave off IOI's. I really didn't pay much attention because I assumed she was out-of-bounds. This chick will be known as HBRose.
HBUT's FUG friend hit the bathroom, so I strolled back over:
V: *stands next to HBUT*
HBUT: "So, how's you're weekend been so far?"
V: "Glorious. Yours?"
HBUT: "Ok, blah blah blah drivel."
V: "Okay, so, you're obviously pissed off. I was super-smashed the other night... hey, booze happens. *shrug* I remember you coming over, but all I remember about it is you leaving in a tizzy."
HBUT: "You got all creepy."
V: "WhaaaaAAT?!?! I don't DO creepy. That doesn't sound like me at all."
HBUT: "You were trying to get me to spend the night."
V: "Well, THAT sounds like me. I try to discourage drinking and driving. How's that creepy?"
HBUT: "Well, I guess not then. But, I was petting your cat, then all of a sudden you were on top of me. THAT's creepy."
V: "Oooooh, haha, yeah, yeah... I totally remember that now. I was taking off my shoe and since I was so loaded, I couldn't keep my balance and basically fell on you. Hahah"
HBUT: "Oh... I thought... " *she trails off and looks at FUG who gets back from the can, immediately starts stink-eyeing me*
V: "Well, I can see how you'd get the --"
*FUG cuts me off, talks right over me*
V: *heads back to HBRose and TD*
Rudeness. It was harshing me, so I headed back to where it was fun. I was playing the game with those two for a while.
WTF? HBRose is IOI'ing me like crazy. I'd make a wisecrack and she'd giggle and reach up and grab my forearm. She was kino'ing ME! I'd nudge her when I'd make joke, and she'd giggle and grab my arm... like, 4 or 5 times. I thought it was all in good fun; Hmmm...
HBRose: "Ok, who's got Joop! on?" *leans in and smells me* "Mmmmm...*
V: "Joop! is my favorite. I love how it smells in the summer; I don't care what anybody says - I wear it for ME, haha."
HBRose: "That's how it should be, right? Joop! is my FAAAaavorite." *leans in and smells again*
OK, THAT's fuggin' IT! She's into me hard. Grrr... TD, I'm going to pull this HB right in front of you, dammit! *sigh* Better be cool, Vulpine. We continued to play the game and have a great time and laughing heartily.
After a while, HBUT came up behind me and...
HBUT: "Wanna do a shot?"
V: *didn't turn around, shifted closer to HBRose so HBUT could get up to the bar, motioned with hand for her to come up* "Sure, you can buy me a shot."
HBUT: "So, what do you want?"
V: *still hasn't turned around from video game* "Whatever. You're buying, you call it."
HBUT: "So, what's up with you running away?"
V: *turns around, locks eyes* "Running away?"
HBUT: "You were over by me before, then, when my friend came in you took off. Then, she came back from the bathroom, and you did it again."
V: "She's rude and is steady giving me the evil eye."
*Pause*
V: "Besides... *pause* ...you don't want to talk to me anyway."
HBUT: "Huh?!?"
V: "I called, left you a message with my number, you didn't call back. You don't want to talk to me. That's not exactly running away." *turns around and resumes playing the video game*
HBUT: *stomps off*
Ahh... the evil games we play, huh guys?
Hey! Beeyatch! Where's my shot?:crackup:
(I didn't say that out loud, but I wanted to.)
So, that's where that's at. Maybe now she'll call. For the rest of the night I ignored her completely because...
TD and HBRose started to play word games on the machine. I was kicking butt and talked some trash:
V: "Anytime now, you guys."
TD/HBRose: "haaha" "Pssshfff..." "Whatever, dude."
V: "Oh, don't sit across a Scrabble board from me."
TD: "Oh, hell no. I'll tear you apart."
V: *LOL* "No, not 'full-contact Scrabble'. You are waaay bigger than me."
HBRose: *LOL, grabs my arm, nods head against my shoulder while laughing, EC's me smiling*
TD: "No, I'll kick your azz for sure."
V: "Don't be so sure, Slick. I came from a family of Scrabble cut-throats!"
TD: "Oh... OH... It's on. HBRose, when are we having the Scrabble throwdown?"
--Note: Uh... that was an obvious "bring in", he's surely gaming her, right? Er... is he helping me game her? Is he winging ME? Ugh. It's too hard to tell.--
HBRose: "I don't know..."
(It happens that HBRose is a friend of the bartender this night at the BS. There are two hotty bartenders at the BS, the one tonight shall be "HB-BS1A" for those who are following the soap-opera, the other: HB-BS2S)
***LAST CALL FOR ALCOHOL!! LAST CALL!***
