Bathroom Bayne, Whimsical Wednesday

Aiight - once again I've been inspired to write. I just now processed fully what happened over the weekend in time for my blog entry Bathroom Bayne, Whimsical Wednesday.

Tacoma, WA - Historic 1625, a wedding. With open bar, basically declaring open season on the kegs of brewage. You know I'm gonna rock that ISH!! Of course, consumption of brew will lead to the following ... 1) fun 2) great jokes 3) hilarity ensuing 4) bad life decisions 5) coyote-ugly hook-ups and the list can go ad nauseam!

One of those, not listed, is the sudden urge to use the restroom. Simple enough in civilized society, right? Wrong! Below is a photo of the restrooms:



I discovered quickly that down that hallway was a family bathroom, and a women's bathroom. No men's! The family restroom is occupied. The women's has the door opened, light's on, and not occupied. Upon asking out loud where the men's? A catering staff member answered by bellowing, "It's located downstairs!". If the reading audience knows anything about me... yeah, eff all that. I bomb into the women's, shut the door, and lock it. Not more than 30 seconds later, the door handle is jiggled. I blare out, "Occupied!"

I followed the decorum in these situations; lift / put down the toilet seat. Wash hands. Knowing a nice lady is politely waiting her turn, I knew I had to have grand exit. So I tear open the door that would make Kramer proud [ala Seinfeld] to find out who would be looking eye-to-eye to. It's the lady at my table that I've been verbally sparring with.

A shit-ass eating grin splashes on my face, as I quip, "Yeah, that HAPPENED! It's open now." I strut by like a BOSS. By the time I returned to my seat I was amused by it all. She's gonna say something upon her return.

And she did, as expected.

Some many questions:
  • Would you do the same in my situation?
  • Have you already done the same?
  • Have you ever bombed into the "wrong" restroom? What did you do?
  • For bros only - have you ever invited the totty at the club waiting in a long line for the ladies to the men's bathroom stall that was unused?

Let's Dance

The other week, I was driving to my 2 nd job at Malarky’s Sports Grill. Wednesday to be exact. I noticed a man standing at a bus sign waiting for a bus. I recognized the man right away. It was Kenny, The Dancing Wild Man of Factoria. It’d been a minute since I’ve seen him on the streets of Issaquah, I was growing concerned that something awful happened to him. I was thankful to find him once again, and within the same area I “met” him the first time… hilarious story. I remember distinctively. It was my first summer I spent in Issaquah. The sun was out, so relatively warm. I was bombing around in the Sapphire Sled [an arctic blue, 2004 Acura RSX Type S] with the windows down, the tunes up. I was stopped at the traffic light on the corner of Front Street and NW Gilman Blvd; the busiest intersection. From out-the-cuts, I heard someone screaming! I pull off my shades immediately. I whip my head around trying to seek out the source of the noise. I turn down the radio as I desper

Manic Monday, Terrible Tuesday, Wonderful Wednesday, Throwback Thursday, and Finally Friday

What a roller coaster week I have had! To start off the week was a manic Monday. After work on Monday , I did a WinCo run with WCP. Always entertaining. Tuesday was terrible. Started off by being tardy for work, so I treated myself to Tully's before posting up. And... in my experience, when you start off a day like that, any attempt to speed up or make up that half-step, half-tick, never happens. For inexplicable reason, you are now out-of-step with the Universe, and like fucking hell you're gonna make it back up. Never. Fails. I was late to meetings, I was late to a gym class I'm regularly early for, and the list goes on. In fact, I decided on that day instead of seeking out my dream girl of a svelte body, superior intelligence, endless energy, and with a litany of characteristics to make any fairy godmother proud I made the wide-sweeping declaration that I wanted this instead. A 2-ton, yoga pants wearing, 45 year old, bitter, divorcee that is one more named cat f

Cinematic Carlos - Seattle International Film Festival 2014

Last night started the 2nd year of my annual tradition (?) of screening several movies during the Seattle International Film Festival. I've known about for years, even a short stint in managing travel during the 2001 SIFF (that's even a longer story!) However, I had zero to little interest in it. I had no good reason either way. Last year, my dear friend, Cindy, invited me to be her movie buddy for SIFF. I accepted because I had no honestly good reason to refuse. We ran around the city tracking down movies that we wanted to watch, others were forgettable but that's the point! Some of these films will hit the mainstream. Most do not. Through the movies, misadventures, and mischief, we had a blast. So, it goes without saying, she invited me to repeat the feat. It continues to teach me: Despite how 'busy' you are - slow down and cherish the time with friends, family, and loved ones That as you grow older - invites should bear more weight than when you were y
