Not exactly how I had planned my comeback but what the heck! Lets Recap.
Got there at nine skipped out of the taxi and climbed the steep curb turn leading up to Mateos, I wore that facial expression that people usually put on when expecting to meet a distant relative or a long lost friend, you know the one that’s half way between a forced smile and feigned surprise.
Well that expression turned into utter bewilderment when my eyes scanned the entire pavement seating area and finding no one closely resembling a blogger, several thoughts raced through my mind one of which was that I had been away too long that the entire blogging fraternity had metamorphosed into a different species all together with altered DNA.
I was just about to turn and head back home when lo and behold his Majesty King of Rogue materialized right in front of me and promptly dispatched me to a table inside that had several emissaries standing around it, the estrogen kingdom ambassadors in the form of Darlyene, Helen, Doreen and Xiona were very much in attendance doing justice to colorful, attractive, futuristic cocktail drinks.
The beer swigging blokes that hung around the princesses of cocktailia were the towering Normzo and Jny who looked like they had just closed a multi billion dollar takeover of Google and were celebrating the success of months of hard sweat and toil, King and Street were deep in conversation when I walked in so I didn’t greet street till later, although when I did I made the blunder of reminding him of his screwed up laptop, what a way to ruin a guys night, it’s just like when you go out to get over this chick and spot one who looks just like her standing in the opposite corner of the room. I spoke to Rhino who apparently thought I write for the paper, I was like hell no, if I did I’d give all my assignments to my 15 year old kid brother while I played pool all day.
Darlyene was sweet, I was loading a kalukumi AT of UTL and she gave me this look the said ‘poor thing’ and reached into her bag for a 2000k AT which she handed over to me, and just to rub it in some more she said she had simply bought it to get change, I said it then and I’ll say it again, DEE for PRESIDENT.
Dear Blogren, I hung around sipping my Club for about 45 minutes before saying my goodbyes.
Jny works less that 50 feet from our building so am gon hop over there and ask him for some help coz I seem to have forgotten how to upload a post.
CIAO.
