The event I went to last night was very nice. It started really early, five o'clock, and was still going on when I decide to leave. They had hired a singer that went on forever. People were getting up and leaving after two hours of her being obsessed with her own voice. Sitting at the same table from five o'clock until ten thirty, was also butt numbing, to say the least. There are only so many converstaions one can have with people you don't know.
The food actually was good, chicken corden bleu or beef bourginon (probably not spelled correctly) and considering it was done by all volunteers it was surprisingly very tasty. Lots of talented people in the world.
Today there was a tea that I decided not to attend. Several hours ago I had a phone call from the manager of the club wanting to know where I was. Nice to be missed, but since I was out Thursday, Friday and Saturday, it was time to stay home an regroup. I think everyone forgets I'm going to be seventy two. How did that happen?
I sent Desi an email after our Friday night together thanking him and telling him what a nice time I had with him. He responded with "It was FAB! You looked great!! I figured that would be the last I'd hear from him since he is working seven days a week and heading North again. However, I just now received a phone call from him asking me where I would like to go for my birthday. I mentioned a couple places and I will email him the information. It is very hard to find a place in Orange County to have a good dinner and dance.
So another week starts with God knows what in store. I really have nothing on my plate at this time except for one meeting. I did hear from the Dentist by email and the Veteran man is lurking, so I'm sure the week will bring a few outings. I go out with these men just to keep busy until Desi returns. Pathetic!
