Couch 174: Good Lord, Those People

I had so much fun!! I went down to the live lounge and danced my *** off and loved every minute of it!! Danced one song with some dude who was dancing one song with every woman who was by herself lol and mostly just by myself all around the dance floor had enough wine that wasn't self conscious I just had a freaking BLAST!! then came back up to the room and fell asleep for awhile. h just got back and woke me up he finished 5th in the tourney & played live poker for awhile. he said he saw me dancing with an oriental woman i was like oh yeah she was a lot of fun he said he thought 'she does so much for me i should go dance with her but i really don't want to' so he didn't. i didn't even see him at all. it was pretty crowded. i didn't do anything stupid i just had a TON of fun. L will be so proud haha i'm going back to sleep just thought i better report in after the what happens in vegas comment lolol

It sounds like you had fun, Art. Good. You deserve to.

W says her ancestors thought her breasts were bigger than a "nice" girl should have, and that she should strap them down.

Wow. I'm speechless, CE. And Una, your comment too! Because I heard similar things in my life I know how much it hurts. And because I understand biology it pisses me off!

Art I'm glad you had a great time!

@@, I'm sorry about Piaf, and I admire your restraint because I would have been tempted to deck her.

Anyone I missed, I'm sorry it's pre-coffee and my two functional brain cells are overtaxed. Happy Friday couch!

It's honestly really good!

Evidence of brainlessness. Today is SATURDAY rofl! I'm going back to sleep.

Yay I'm uber happy you had a blast! The dancing sounds fab and I'm glad you didn't feel self conscious.


5th is pretty good out of 30 players!

Is 5th good enough to get your entrance fee back, I wonder? Or is it winner takes all?

I track my emails ever since @@ mentioned it previously. R is in Belgium. I thought it was Germany because he posted something on Tripadvisor. At least I know he read the original email though. It makes me feel safer knowing where he is as well.

I think it might be, prizes might be awarded to maybe the top three though.

Hi Couch,

Looks like you have been having fun. Proud to say that last night was really good - an event I've been waiting for, for eleven years. (My favourite guitarist was playing half an hour away from me in 2007, and I completely missed it.) Last night, a friend drove two hours away so that we could see him together for the first time.

I really needed it - and it's levelled me out a bit. I'm still frustrated, but I can kind of live with it now.

Hugs and headnods to all who want.

I'm glad you had a good time lost, your friend sounds awesome.

It was, the entry fee was $80 and he cashed out I think he said $97. He's good enough he cashes out at least the entry fee about half the time i'd guess. Doesn't play a whole lot anymore.

So glad you had a good time, Lost!!

My X therapist tells me I should meet nicer people. What he failed to say was that HE was more evil than the ones I already knew (or maybe equal to). A warning should have been posted.

I'm glad you went dancing, Art. I have to admit I don't know what the term woman centered means, but dancing I get. It can be freeing and life affirming.

wait what does that mean? Oh. I just looked it up. Maybe it was, but I'm still a big fat chickenshit so I wasn't gonna do anything stupid. I wasn't that drunk....

Not to mention, women our age are nigh on invisible. Plus we're not men.

so anyway i had this dream a couple nights before i saw t the other day. also helps explain why i was safe from doing anything stupid last night.

The dream: a woman came up from an underground cave like thing and gave up her life there to be above ground with me and at the end of the dream i wrote 'i love her so much'.

when I worked on it with L on thursday I was like OH! she's me huh, the real me I've 'hidden underground' for so long. That felt SO right. Anyway last night it was that inner wilder-from-the-underground me, when she got a taste of the wine said "Oh hell no we are not going to just sit here. Get up off your butt and put on your short black dress. We're going down to the club!" So I did. I really needed her back in my life... I'm really proud of myself for doing that totally without h, without even running it by him or anything. I wanted to and I did. Go me.

girlfriend i was not invisible last night bahaha

i don't know what it means to me either really yet but i'm figuring it out because when L suggested it thursday while we were talking about that whole sexuality thing, it really resonated.

ok for very briefly here was me last night
ack! that was long enough.

I'm glad you had fun last night, Artie.

I feel so sad this morning.

Pretty glam!!
