Rockin at Rock's Lounge

Thursday after Sherrie left, Malachi and I ran a few errands and then I took him to his dad's house. They were going to make a trip out to Barstow, CA to visit Matt's grandparents. His grandpa hasn't been doing too well and they all thought it a great idea to spend a few days with him, 3 generations worth.

This allowed me to catch up on chores and also catch up with some girlfriends.

After winning BIG Tuesday night, I wanted to hit the tables again. Christina was game, so off to the Red Rock we went. I should have known better! I ended up loosing $40!! Stupid game!

On our way to grab a bite to eat we were approached by two rather good looking men and they asked if we would like to come see their band play at Rock's Lounge at 11 and handed us tickets. We politely agreed and then again headed towards the food.

After food and walking around a bit, we decided to check out the band. It was still relatively early and I was in a good mood.

As soon as we walk in we brushed past this woman dressed in red velvet pants, red shoes, a black and red bathing suit top with a cropped red jean jacket, and enough make up, collegian, and silicon for 10 woman to share. I immediately turned to Christina, who apparently already knew where I was going, and said, "that's got to be a man!"

Now I can see going out with your friends all 'hoochie-mamaed' out but not by yourself! And there was NO ONE around even remotely dressed like her. PLUS it's not like we were down on the strip or down town, we were at the bloody Red Rock. So my conclusion was that it had to be a man dressed as a woman, that's the only way this would happen.

So Christina and I made our way closer to the stage and dance floor, found a table and got cozy. Then all of a sudden the light went out, the music started, and out walked lady in red!!! Ok ok, I'm sorry I judged! I should have let the possibility of her being a performer cross my mind. She was accompanied by 5 men, including the 2 that approached us earlier. Amazingly 4 of the 5 were extremely good looking. The drummer was in the shadows, and Chris and I decided this was because he wasn't as good looking as the others. Later, we found out we were right.
The night went on great. Between the hot band, the interesting woman, and the good music I was very entertained. I just kind of leaned back and soaked it all in... including my captain and cokes.

A while later Chris decided it was time for a restroom break. I thought that I should stay so that we didn't loose our table. About 5 minutes later I decided to check phone. I had had it crammed in my purse all night. I had a missed call and a voice mail from Clarice. Oh shit!, I thought. She's in labor! Why else would she call me at 1045pm on a Thursday??? I couldn't hear the voicemail and I couldn't call her right back because it was entirely too loud. I had to wait for Christina to return, who by the way was taking a very long time. What the hell was she doing. We hadn't had nearly enough to drink for her to be sick in the restroom.

Finally she came back, and not alone. I didn't have time to inquire to who the new people were. I just told her that Clarice called and I had to call her back and ran outside of the lounge area.

I checked the voicemail first. All that she she said, crying, was, 'call me back when you get this.' Oh my goodness! What on Earth? I returned her call only to find probably some of the worst news a could have her baby any minute woman could get from her significant other. (up to her to share that story)

After I calmed her down I joined Chris and then got the scoop on our newly found friends. Apparently Christina was approached by a large man right outside of the restroom. He told her that his girlfriend was inside and asked Chris to check on her. As she went inside, she was greeted by a tiny lil woman. She told Chris that she heard the man outside and that she is not his GF. She then went on to explain he was a friend of her actual boyfriend. They had came out to have a few drinks and she apparently had a few too many. He then was trying to take advantage of her and the safest place she could go was the woman's restroom. She went on saying that she was waiting for her man to come get her. Chris told her that until that time came, she could come sit with us and when she got a text to go, excuse herself to the restroom.

AWWW!!!! What a good woman Christina is!!

After another 5-10 minutes I notice the big man with his hands all over our tiny friend. I leaned over to Chris and suggested it was time to hit the dance floor. She agreed. So we did for the next 15 minute. Finally our tiny friend got her cue and she left unharmed and untouched. Thank God!

However, WE were now stuck with the creep! After listening to him make up stories about being an army ranger and being good friends with Floyd Mayweather, I think he finally got the clue and bounced. Yes! Finally!

Chris and I soon made our way to the dance floor again only for her to be stocked by a somewhat good yet very creepy dancer. I unfortunately wasn't a good friend and could do nothing but laugh. I finally found a nice man to sneak in and steal her away. She almost killed me. After we danced all the liquor off and awwwed at the band members we made our way out to the car. The nice man made sure to walk us the entire way so that we weren't harassed anymore.
