Title: What a hoot this evening!
Post by: monrein on October 29, 2008, 06:59:44 PM
Well, what a fun birthday dinner with my two girlfriends.  We went to a small restaurant right near my house and had a nice round table for four (only 3 of us), settled in to order.  Then in come these two guys (around 40 years old) who walk right up to our table and one guy pulls up a chair from the neighbouring table and says  "Sorry we're late but finally we got here".  We all just look at him for a minute and then he says  "Oh, weren't you expecting us?  Aren't you the German escorts who are supposed to be meeting us here?"  Well, interestingly enough, I was just in the process of using my knife to give my friends a taste of my Benson's salt substitute sample (you know, small plastic pouch with a pale coloured powder in it) and my one girlfriend was busy examining the new "blunt" cannulation needle that I'd brought to show her.
So I tell the guy that we're actually in the middle of discussing needles and a fabulous new powdery substance we've discovered that's quite the little miracle.  This takes them off guard for only a second and he shoots back with "Geez, I haven't done drugs since the meth lab blew up".  Anyhow, they leave to join five other guys at a table down the way.

Ten minutes later, the whole group comes over and occupies the table right next to us.  Good grief we think.  Three times during the meal the same guy turns to me and tries to strike up a conversation, asking me where I live, blah blah blah, do I come to this restaurant often, blah blah blah.  My friends are dying over all this and whenever he turns away they're saying things like  " Oh cool Gail, you can show him your fistula and say..hey, wanna get a buzz?  Or you could show him the fistula and burst into singing...Hot blooded, doo doo doo doo".  We died laughing.  Afterwards, one friend commented to me..."Well at least he was younger than the usual old guys that try to hit on you". 

They were all kind of arrogant financial advisor types and they were getting pretty loaded but it never hurts to be mistaken for a German escort, especially at my age.   :rofl;

No to the escort service, but I'm thinking about phone sex instead.  Much less tiring and I'd save so much on the clothes end of things.   Disease avoidance has always been a fetish with me too.

Sorry this was meant to be funny.

it is from a song from back in the day.  A very good song as well.
Wasnt meant to be suggestive...  Or crude..

867-5309/Jenny" is a song written by Alex Call and Jim Keller and performed by Tommy Tutone that was released on the album Tommy Tutone 2, on the Columbia Records label. It peaked at Number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and Number 1 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in 1982

Just to set the record (get it record) straight. :-(
