anyone have a new years eve story?...i do and its a doozie!
I tried to talk my wife out of spending new years eve with her little click of friends at their favorite little dive bar,where one of the click bartends.
i eventually gave up and gave in....i wasnt about to let her go to this particular bar with this particular group with out me...as you the reader may remember the "pub crawl" i attended with this same group..so i got my drivers license renewed and made sure my insurance card was current...roadblocks are inevetable here in chicago on new years eve.....we parked at a friends up the street and walked 2 blocks to the bar..it was about 12 degrees farenheight....anyway.here comes the good part....already you say...ya thats what i said too......anyway...we had a drink...i wasnt drinking so her friend behind the bar was making me "kiddie cocktails"..no booz....there is a no smoking band here so being close to tge barkeep ..she directed us to the back office/bedroom... ..where you can smoke..its like a very small flat.....there was a coffee table ,a daybed,and a couple of chairs....i sat down to smoke and noticed a whole pile of playboys on the coffee table....there where 2 girls in the room already talking ,drunk.......when my wife ,her friend,and i sat down i turned the playboys face down so we didnt have to look at that nonsense while we smoked and talked....one of those 2 girls in the room noticed that i had done that and noticed my cross necklace....she literally attacked me....ok first i should say ..this girl was abhout 6' tall and weighed a good 200-215 pounds...she was my equall at least in size...and get this...she's a construction worker who spends all day busting up concrete
so she noticed and attacked me..."you got something against playboy?..(insert word for cigarette in UK)"....she wouldnt shut up about how i was a hypocrite and on and on..insisting that i wanted to look at them....i finally cracked.....i verbally ruined this woman......i can not post my vocalizations here but those that know me know how bad it can be and i tore her up....she leaned in real close ..i thought it was going to come to physical blows at this point and i may have lost ...but i sat there waiting for the legal ability to smash her face and it never came...she angrily snuffed her cigarette out and left with a slam of the door to the room...everyone was staring at me like "wow...where did that come from"......and then thats when they told me she was a real hardbutt..
this was a "broadzilla"...if she would have stepped into the arena of fist fighting by hitting me i would have put her down....for real i think she had me by 20 pounds and would have probably done well
so long story short the last bit of 2008 i spent in a "hooker loveshack"..sober ,and almost got beat up by a female construction worker for being a christian.
thats about right in the life of Steve
