So, I got a really cool tablet for Christmas from my husband.
I was so excited to bring the Pokeno Rag into the 21st century by
taking notes on there instead of my tried & true pen/paper method. You know
what that got me? I sat down to start blogging. I typed 1 line. I went to
delete what I thought was only 1 line in my notes. It turned out that I
actually deleted the entire entry! So…since I’m working off the top of my head,
this should be interesting. Sit back & enjoy my wandering thoughts…there
won’t be many.
The first party of 2013 was a comfy party. Everyone came in
jammies/sweats/etc. The weather people were calling for “significant snow” the
day of our party. Rather than have everyone risk the storm (they said we were
gonna get), we decided to change venues & move the party to Marge’s place. It
made more sense for everyone to drive 30 mins or less (except for Patt) than to
pack everyone up, drive all the way to PA & hope the roads would be
alright. As it turned out, the “storm” wasn't very bad at all. But, it’s always
better to be safe than sorry!
We ordered food & Phyllis made a lovely snowflake cake.
There were even decorative silver balls on there. I had the word written down,
but it got deleted. Phyllis said she learned the word from Miss Piggy (of all
sources)! We thought our food was here, so Marge went downstairs to meet him.
Marge left the door cracked when she left. Sassy the dog saw this as a good
opportunity to take a walk. When we noticed she was missing, Peg started down
the hall after her. I went to help. For a dog w/ such tiny legs that she needs
steps to get into bed (that she doesn't use) & a stroller for walks – she sure
was quick! I did my best impersonation of “The Flash” & hauled ass down the
hallway to catch the runaway dog. I found her at the elevator. I picked her up
& she proceeded to piss all over me! This is the thanks I get for saving
you? I carry the little furry piss bag back to the apartment & try to clean
myself up. Peg says, “Did you bring a change of clothes?” Just like most of you…I
do NOT bring spare clothes in my Pokeno bag! Maybe this should be a word for
the wise in the future – you never know what might happen, so you might wanna
bring a backup plan! Anyway, I dried off the dog pee & borrowed Patt’s
Tide-to-go pen. Luckily, she still had it handy after spilling Vampire merlot
on her shirt! The pen covered up the smell for a little bit, but by the time I
got home, I smelled slightly better than a port-o-potty & immediately ran
upstairs to change.
Not only did I get pissed on, but I also got dry humped by
my aunt! Marge was playing her new stereo that some wonderful people got her
for Christmas. Not sure what channel she was listening to, but they were doing
double shots. This was all well & good until Marvin Gaye came on. The song
was “Sexual Healing”. Now, I don’t know about the rest of you, but my immature
brain can’t handle this song. Every time
I hear it, I bust out with a terrible case of the giggles. So, I’m sitting in
my spot – chuckling to myself when everyone starts asking what’s so funny. I
told them I can’t handle the song. That’s when Patt thought it would be a good
idea to hump my arm. I feel so violated! Now I’ll really never be able to
listen to that song the same way again!
Debi won a bunch more dimes this month. I think she may have
won the first cover all? Or was it the second? Maybe both? Damn tablet… Either
way, she won a bunch & we got disgusted, so we flipped off her & her
stinking dimes! I swear, Debi’s gonna be able to retire on some nice beach
somewhere & it will all be funded by our dimes… So, we played one round,
then Peg & Lori left. The rest of us stayed & played on for a little
while longer, wrapping up the party around 9:30 or so. It seemed everyone had a
good time (except for me – thanks to all the pissing & humping) and we went
on our merry ways until the next party.
MYSTERY BOX
Peg gave out the first Mystery of 2013. Lori was the winner!
It was a super cute plaid box chock full of snacks! Now Lori will do double
duty of hosting & providing the Mystery for March.
MARCHING INTO MARCH
We attempted to plan a party for February. However, it
seemed that everyone was busy & we just couldn't get our schedules to sync up again until March. For the first time ever, Lori has offered up her place to
play! So, get your green on & head over to Lori’s house on SATURDAY,
MARCH 9 @ 5:00 for a St. Patty’s Pokeno. I will provide her
address & phone number in a separate e-mail so you can get directions from
wherever you’re coming from. Lori will be making ham; Patt will do (everyone’s
favorite) pineapple pudding; I’m doing spinach dip (because it’s green); Kate
will be making Irish soda bread; Peg’s making her delicious mac & cheese;
Phyllis is bringing fixin’s for a salad bar; Marge will bring snacks & Debi
will pick up some sort of dessert on her way to the party.
FINAL THOUGHT
Now that I know how to work my tablet (don’t delete anything
until I’m totally done & send a backup to my e-mail acct), the Rag for
March should be a bit better put together (I hope). My apologies for not
covering all the news that was fit to print. Maybe you remember some of the
highlights…or not…probably not. I know a lot of you depend on the Rag to fill
you in on stuff that you missed. So, hopefully you didn't miss anything
important! Until next time, may the foxiest bitch win!
