Monday....how the rest of weekend went Saturday was good work wise. we were steady all night and everything went right, no mishaps, had the night dishwasher I wanted back on nights again (he works at applebee's (where josh works)during the day and my boss realized him being there at night made things go better, so the problem dishwasher is back on days and from what i hear, wil be fired come Wed if he don't improve. sucks to be him). so things just went well.
the german bar didn't have karaoke so after meeting Josh and becca, tim and karen and Jason at the german bar, we all had one drink and went to bronco billy's for karaoke, pool and of course, drinking.
as soon as we walked in and got settled at our fave table we noticed nobody was shooting , we never got around to laying as we all were just bsing and laughing so no biggie.. "Maybe Tomarrow" played and Jennifer looked at me, "someone knows you're here" she said smiling. I smiled back and said "yeah I know. I was telling the guys the story of we have these people from poland working for us. One girl was joking with me on things and I had said something about my attraction to women. so the girl says "You don't like polish women"? I told her I do but I'm more attracted to Latino and native american women. so the girl anna says "oh, so you like her" Pointing to Jennifer...so I said what I told anna..."well..score one for stating the fucking obvious". everyone busted up laughing and that's when i noticed something about jennifer. when she laughs, she smiles and shakes her head, just like someone I used to know. I can't place who does that exact same thing. but it was someone I knew somewhere. i wish i could pin it..maybe it's best I don't, lol. I don't know but it was quite the coincidence for me to see.
Jennifer was going thru the song book and this one special moment came. Barb the dj after some dance song ended..it was a hush between songs and then Barb said. "This next one is for Biker Bill...you know why Bill". She played "Black Coffee" by Lacy J. Dalton, and anyone who reads this journal knows why that's a special song I dedicate to a special friend, sadie, who recently passed away. when the song started the guys looked at me and I knew why it was played. the special moment was ALL OF THEM joined in singing it with me, right there at the table we were sitting at. even josh and jason who don't sing, joined in. when the song ended they all did what I do every time at the song's end. they a;long with me, tapped their heart three times and pointed towards the sky, up to sadie.
I almost broke down at that moment. Tim's girlfriend karen was the one who noticed tears coming to my eyes. it was one of them times where, you know who your real friends are. they never knew sadie but they respect the fact that she was special in my life and paid their respects the one way they thought they could at that moment. I never asked them to do it but they felt it was the right thing to do. now there's some friends for you. how many go that extra mile?
Jennifer got called up next. she didn't even put in a card yet I laughed and said "Kamakazi karaoke". Barb wanted to hear Jennifer sing "rhiannon" by fleetwood mac(the version off of "the Dance"). I can see why. she does that song so strong and she had the crowd in her hands again she sings it that good. while she was singing Tim said "she does do that song well. you two look so well together, in my opinion, better than you and Julie did. you going to keep this one"? I laughed..and jokingly said "as long as she don't fuck up like the others did". I knew tim was trying to be serious and was trying to get thru what I heard somewhere called the "fortress of feelings", lol. I looked at tim and said "we do get aong well, maybe it's the chicago thing with her and i, i don't know..but yeah, this one i'd like to keep". jennifer knows where the line I have drawn is at and I had shown her al the shit debbie had put me thru, along with the shit julie said when sadie died. Jennifer agreed with me that I have done the right thing in getting rid of them. so we'll see.
Karen went up and sang "16th ave" by lacy j. dalton which i thought was cool of her to do. I didn't even bother writing out a card. I knew Barb had something in mind for me when it came to my turn. My turn came and I sang a song I haven't done in quite awhile. "Forever in blue jeans". Jennifer really got into it so I know she likes the song. I got a rousing ovation but not lkike she does now, lol.
1 am came and we all went to that hole in the wall over in north freedom to shoot pool. as soon as we walked in the crowd parted ways so we could walk thru. Josh mumbled to me "You know I did enjoy that when people move out of my way". I chuckled and said "I've been enjoying that for years, it never gets old for me, lol". we turned the format of the music on the jukebox from country to rock and metal again. the bartender joked and said "you guys are multiplying". tim was like "huh"? and she said "two of you guys were in here last night, now there's 4, i get the reference on the four horsemen motorcycle club now".
bartime was close so josh and becca went home and the rest of us roared back to the city of tourist hell, i mean the dells. and landed at the sandbar. thank God no idiots were trying to start shit. I had the pistol woith me, which I call "the widowmaker", cause if i ever really HAVE to use it. someone's gonna be a widow, LOL!.
after bartime we all parted ways and we all smoked the ties before letting the ladie's on our bikes. I landed at Jennifer's place and we had "fun" of our own.
last night was cool work wise too. not real busy but not real dead. so it mostly goofing off and wisecrack night. jennifer and I had acouple drinks at the sandbar after before going back to my place. have to be off to work in alittle bit. this is my "friday" so I know I'll be out til bartime tonight. When you can life in the fast lane like I can. you just do because you can. that's what seperates the men from the boys. see ya.
go aheah and join my community askbill. there will be more topics and stuff added there in the next coming days no that the noimbill journal thing is dying down. they just don't have anything and never will. so chumping that fool so easily has become old.
