Went to Target to shop for a present last night, then headed back Downtown. “I’ll hang out at McGuinness for a couple of hours,” I thought, “Then I’ll head over to the Saucer.” Well, what ended up happening was that I had so much fun at McGuinness that I never made it to the Saucer. Yes, you read that correctly. I had so much fun that not even waitresses in miniskirts could pull me away.
Met several of my blog readers last night who I learned were also McGuinness regulars. One of them wanted to be mentioned in the blog, so I pulled out my camera and took a picture of us. Here ya go:
She asked me to guess her profession, and apparently my guess (“Dancer at the Pony?”) didn’t go over very well. She’s actually a special ed teacher. She had some comments about my blog which are worth a separate post of their own, but I’ll save that for later as I’m trying to get this done in my lunch hour.
Nice meeting you, Taylor, Leigh, and all the other people whose names escape me 12 hours later. Great group of people to hang out with. Glad you find this blog entertaining.
I also came away from the evening with possible plans for New Year’s Eve (Sunday brunch crew/trivia team: details on this to come).
I’m really starting to warm up to McGuinness. If I continue to have fun there I will grant the place co-equal status with the Saucer.
Plans for tonight: A beer at either Saucer or McGuinness (whichever I feel like going to) around 7, then Hoop’s Bar/EP’s at 8 and for the remainder of the evening.
