City Club Aftermath 9/2


Recommended Posts

After some at-home drama that delayed us getting out the door until almost 1:00, we did indeed manage to make it out for the first time since probably April or so.

It was exceptionally nice to meet some people, some new and some not-so-new to whom we never managed to be introduced. This included HipsterDufus (Thanks kindly for the offer of a drink, perhaps a rain check?) and Sarah, his lovely wife, and BrassFusion - girlie, I hope you got home o.k....

Candy & Odins, I'm so glad we were finally introduced. Candy, it was a fine moment in Critter conversation comparing your "assets" with a painting at the DIA - "lovely to look at, but you don't HAVE to touch it to appreciate it." :shock::laugh:

Bav - I'm SO sorry we got cut-off so briefly upon meeting. It's been too long coming, meeting you in-person, and I wish circumstances had allowed more and non-interrupted conversation. Looking forward to seeing you again for less hectic "getting to know you".

Hooked up with a non-DGN member or two, and it was nice seeing those faces again.

Good seeing old friends like Rambo, Crank, Phee, Rayne, Jennifer, and others whom I'm sure I have misplaced in memory land.

I wasn't drinking, didn't feel like it. But I was still feeling somewhat, well, not quite "anti-social", more like "un-social". I didn't feel very eloquent or anything facilitating good conversation, so I did a lot of sitting and observing. If you met me for the first time last night, please don't take my demeanor as at all "normal". Just stretching some social muscles that appear to be somewhat atrophied.

Heh. I was also breaking in the first pair of heels I've worn in over 8 years, 4-1/2" ones at that. Platform heel boots are surprisingly easy to walk and dance in, but different parts of my body, from the small of my back to my ankles, calves & knees, were protesting the new "arrangement" mightily.

Interesting note. Some guy who claimed to work there saw me standing by the speakers on the ballroom, noticed my "pussy" shirt and cat ears and said, "You like cats, right?" I said yes, and he told me to put my hand around his neck and squeeze. I gently recoiled, as I'm not real prone to touching strangers at whim, but he was reassuring, and I was intrigued, so I did so. HOLY FREAKING SHIT - I couldn't hear if there was any resulting sound, but he could make something inside his throat thrum & vibrate EXACTLY like a cat's does when it purrs. What a curious moment for someone who can't even roll her r's. :shock::cat:

It was an interesting night. I went with Brassfusion. I saw alot of people that I already knew and I met some new people from dgn like Hipsterdufus and his wife. Even though I was hurt(emotionally) and rejected I still managed to have an okay time.

I was very glad to meet everyone despite a ?slight? overindulgence in alcohol. Meeting Erin, Phee, Missie, Camille (spelling?), and gothmama was a great experience. I can see how some people don't really love city club (wtf was up with the sound system?), but it was definitely a new experience for me. =) Sometime, we'll have to do something where I can hear everyone talk and actually see the people I'm meeting. Overall, a good time. I would say that I was half-in-the-bag, but I was full-in. Next time, I'll try to leave one foot out so we can make some good conversation. Thanks again everyone!

I agree with that one cause it would be nice to see who I'm meeting.

You mean I'm not the only one? Maaaaaan... If there wasn't any background noise, you would have heard a very realistic purr. It's done with the voice. Usually easier to do with a deeper voice for obvious reasons. :cat:

    • Been on auto insurance quotes for the past 7 hours trying to  assist my niece in finding affordable coverage.  This sucks for young people in Michigan.  Then it's compounded by living in the city of Detroit. 
    • Is this @cthulhu63's doing? I remember the FB post gauging interest but I didn't realize it was big enough for Mlive to catch it.
    • ~~~~~ What angers me the most about the entire incident is that it shouldn't have even been a thing.  I take my vehicle in for service every year and they are supposed to do specific point inspections for each maintenance check.  My brake line was completely rusted through and finally gave up the goat.  When I mentioned that at the service center and also how they said I was supposed to have an undercarriage zinc wash, the first thing the rep said was, "Well, you know how the weather is here and how the rain water and salt can corrode the underside of vehicles."    Yeah, I almost lost it.  That was the reason for me having the anti-corrosion wash done!  Literally, all 3 brake lines were 100% corroded on the external with the one eaten completely through.   I told them that thanks to this, when I get my vehicle back, I'm going to be under there with my inspection mirror because now I don't trust anything.  She then goes on to tell me that I hadn't been there since September of 2022.  But a service should last longer than one month and my vehicle started slowly losing break fluid less than 6 months later with being driven half the usual time and distance due to a change in Trene's doctors being closer to the Detroit city limit.   I have always worked on my vehicles myself.  Growing up, my father was an off and on mechanic and my brother was a military mechanic, so working on vehicles is practically in my blood.  The only thing I don't do is undercarriage stuff because I do not have the equipment for it, but I have a shade-tree mechanic neighbor who is willing to help me out with that.  My dealership warranty was up in 2019, so I have no issues with handling things myself going forward.   ~~~~~ My sister's situation was caused by an accident and the last thing I need is for her to lose faith in my abilities due to someone else's inability to properly do their job because auto places generally have an unspoken rule that they can get more work and money of off female drivers because we don't understand our vehicles and need their assistance.
