The Girls Will Play

My weekend flew by with Ando not in town. After my great date with Mo I did a little yard work on Saturday before it got too cold. Plus I had to cut the grass before leaving for Vegas. I then went and got my hair cut. My original appointment was at 4pm, but then it got moved up to 1:30 because of a cancellation. After my hairs got cut I went sopping for some shoes and a nice light weight jacket. I didn't realize how hard it is to find a jacket especially this time of year. Needless to say I didn't find a jacket, but did come away with a new pair of shoes. It was almost two pairs, but I stopped myself.

That night Mo, Jenster and I went out to eat at Kona. Just three lovely ladies out on the town together. I hadn't been to Kona in awhile and remember not liking it that much and thinking it was overpriced. I came away with a different feeling this time. It was good and I didn't feel like I paid too much either. When we were all finished with dinner Jenster and I met up with my cuz and some people he knew to go to Mainstrasse for a night out on the town without the boys. Well there were boys with us, but Ando and Teed weren't. I think Jenster was a bit overwhelmed at first, as was I really, but once some drinking took place it wasn't quite so bad. I have never seen people take so many pictures. I think a flash went off every thirty seconds the whole night. I must be in 50 pictures and I think Jenster is in 75.

Did some boys try to pick us up you ask. Well as a matter of fact, what a good name for a band, some did. This guy, TimTom, who was hanging out with us, he was a friend of a friend, I really didn't know who he was, was trying to pick Jenster up the whole night. He wasn't Jenster's type at all and wasn't getting the hint that she wasn't into him. I got hit on by some old dude, by old I mean 45 or so. He came over and said I see your not married. I should have said that was a sore subject, but I didn't go there. Luckily cuz saved me and we got away from the dude.

This was only my second experience at Mainstrasse, it's really not my scene, and I went to the exact same three bars as I did last time. For some reason these three bars must be the most popular that everyone goes to. After my small, same tour of Mainstrasse it was time to head home, but first there was a pit stop at Steak 'n Shake. Jenster and I split a burger and some fries. I haven't had Steak 'n Shake in ages plus I was a little drunk and it was 2:30am, all things that lead to a pleasant experience.

Sunday I didn't do much of anything. I wanted to start some laundry so I could start packing for Vegas, but I had to wait for Ando to come home since he needed laundry done as well. I did a little house straightening instead so the place won't be a mess when we get back. I had my birthday dinner with the fam at 5pm at Brazenhead Pub in Mason. It was my first time there. I would say it was similar to any other Irish Pub and Grill. It wasn't anything special, but it wasn't awful either. I got some more presents from my parents, brother and Grandpa. It was mostly money and of course a Reds schedule, I get one every year from my dad, and a new sewing machine. I have been asking for a sewing machine for a couple years now and finally got one. It is time to try my hand at some curtain making and a few other small things I need to sew.

After dinner I had a 10:30 soccer game to attend. I almost didn't go, but there really was no reason not to go. Ando was at work and just sitting around waiting for laundry didn't seem like much fun. I didn't play so great last night, but our team still came out with a........tie. Yep yet another tie for our soccer team. When I came home I finally started packing and getting ready for Vegas. I went to bed later than I wanted, but hey if you look at in Vegas time it was a reasonable bed time. I am just getting accustomed to the time change early.

Since I am headed to Vegas I don't know how much time I will have to blog this week or if I will have internet either. You'll have to keep yourselves entertained without me and be sure to check back Saturday when I tell you all about Vegas.

Ando went to Chicago; He didn't bring me back a souvenir like a ring.
