It's Not Your Grandma's Bingo!!

Thought I'd support a worthy cause, enjoy a night out with my gal pals and play a little bingo.  I'm usually pretty lucky at bingo so I thought I might win a few prizes!

The charity we were going to support was for death row dogs.  I guess they save dogs who are on the docket for being put to sleep.  The event was being held at Hamburger Mary's, some place in downtown Kansas City.

After last night, my husband says I can no longer accompany my friend, Lorrie, on any gal pal outings!!!

The evening started out with a bang; a crash bang!  We were almost hit by a truck trying to escape from the police.  Upon entering a highway ramp, the guy flew by us followed by 2 cop cars, sirens screaming.  More cop cars coming from all directions.  Lorrie slammed on her brakes and we wondered if we might want to change our route.  After the coast cleared we tentatively made our way downtown.

It took a while to find the place, so we had to whip out the old GPS device.  (Lorrie thought she knew where she was going----but I guess not!!!---in more ways than one!!)

Well we got to Hamburger Mary's just in time.  Walked in----only to find ourselves in a GAY bar!!!!  Oh it was a-swing-in!!!  We were greeted by a lovely hostess.  Patty turned to me and asked, "Just tell me, is that a girl or a guy?"  Yes, the lovely transvestite asked us if we were here to play some BINGO!!!  The place was hoppin---so we ended up in the back sitting at the bar.  Ordered up our drinks---thought we might need a few before the night was over---payed our $10.00 for our ten bingo cards AND proceeded to play GAY BINGO!!!

Our hostess chose the type of bingo, proceeded to sing and dance for us, call out the balls---with many side comments-----and I won!!  TWICE!  Each bingo round was based on some type of sexual connotation---many of which were unknown by me :)  But I caught on fast. 

We played for about 2 hours. Half way through, our hostess needed to make a costume change.  Then she proceeded to sing a song while mincing around the bar, ending up on top of the bar right in front of  us.  Damn, she had good legs!!!

Well, we stumbled out of the bar after a night of debauchery and lots of laughter.  I won a $20.00 Pizza Hut card and a t-shirt.  And we raised about $700.00 for the death row dogs!!  All in all---a win-win evening.

After sharing my evening fun with Wayne, he told me the police chase was on the news and then he forbade me to hang out with Lorrie without prior vetting!!!  (Actually, if we ever go again---we plan to bring our husbands!)

So, I know you want to know about the police chase......but that's a whole other story!!!  And not as titalating as ours!

It's Official! I Am Now Dangerous!!!

Yep, today I moved into a whole new dimension in my life!!  I manuevered a BOBCAT! 

This old broken down granny has found her new career!!!  When I retire from being a teacher-librarian--I'm going to be driving the big earth movin machines for some construction company!!!

It's in my blood now!  Today it was scooping up gravel in the loader, moving it around the community garden, and then dumping the ole bucket.  If only I could have gone faster!!!  (Where's ole Tim the Toolman when you need him??)

From here, no machine is too big.  The bigger the better I say!  (or am I confusing machines with ...........  :)

Anyway, I have found my inspiration.  Now all I need do is convince some construction company to hire me.  I figure I'll get me one or two of those low-rise pair of pants, hang a cute, low-riding toolbelt over these ample hips and wha-lah!!  I'm in!!  Them tools will be a swinging in a way that those men have never seen.  Mesmerizing......simply mesmerizing!!!!
