Day 84

Well I am trying to figure out how to sell items on ebay.
I am trying to get over it all.

Story time.

The first time I went to a strip club. If I recall I had just turned 18 which means I had also just graduated from High School. I had no job. I went from being bound for Hawaii to being bound for around the corner school. I had no girlfriend. I just got my job at Baskin Robbins. I had never done a drug or had a drink. The only naked female I had ever seen was on a TV screen. I hadn't even kissed a girl at this point for Pete's sake. How did I end up at an adult entertainment facility? My friends didn't tell me where we were going.

I am trying to remember the details. I want to say my friends Jason, Brandon, Corey, PJ, Phil and Duncan were in attendance. I am not sure if it was just an effort to get me to a strip club in particular or if it was just a nice excuse for these guys to hit the place up. We just got in a car they said we are getting something eat or going to watch a movie or something lame. I fell for it. City Limits off Auburn Vlvd. I do remember them buying me a lap dance though, so I tend to think it was a goof gift factor there. Get the virgin a lap dance. Her name was Ryan. She smelled delightful. I didn't move an inch. I was sure I wasn't suppose to do anything outwardly aggressive towards the exotic dancers, so I just kinda put my hands by my side and let her do her thang. It was the only dance I got that night. I was still broke after all and strip clubs suck when you have no money. I was entertained though by the fact that I ran into two old friends at the place as well. At the time they were accomplished high school football players in the Sacramento area. Winston and Avery. Those two were acting a fool. And I also remember that PJ decided to get a lap dance without any money in his pocket. I believe Phil had to ante up on that one after his error in judgement. That made Phil slightly upset. :) Other than that it was a short night. We weren't drinking up a storm. I had some soda. And for some reason all this time has gone by and I remember her name. My first lap dance. Ryan.

The reason for this post? Anyone else have something they remember that really has no place being in their memory? It wasn't exactly a memory burn or anything, but I suppose it had a few reasons to stick out in my mind. Just had to share a fun fact from back in the day. Don't think Mr. Manuel made this trip out. Not sure if he was 18 at the time. Plus my memory is bad causing me to guess at the members of our party. Money is Power. Rabble Rock!

Ah Rich, I know that story well. Isn't that where PJ said, "I thought she liked me!"

This early in the morning I can't think of a memory that has no place being there, but I can share my City Limits story...

It was my birthday a few years ago - 25th? We went to dinner at Biba's, we were dressed up and looking good. We got home early and I wasn't ready to turn in for the night so we decided to go to City Limits. We called a bunch of the guys to see if they wanted to come but everyone already had plans - it WAS a Friday/Saturday night and short notice, afterall. So it was just Manuel and I and we went and got a table and drank soda (that's all they serve so the girls can get completely naked) and the girls danced on the stage and came over and talked to us and they were all ok but nobody we really wanted anything from. Then we saw her - Christy. She was dressed like a school girl. She was cute. She danced on stage and Manuel and I agreed - she would be the one the give me my lap dance. When she was done she walked by and we called her over and told her it was my birthday and told her I would like a lap dance. Know what she said? "I'm straight." I lifted my left hand and pointed to my wedding ring and said, "So am I." That seemed to make it better for her so she took me (Manuel followed)over to the bench and did her thing. And you know what's funny? I remember her smelling delightful as well.

I can't think of anything either but I can say I've never been to a strip club. I've never even seen porn! I can actually say, though, that I don't really feel like I'm missing anything. I hear fun stories like that but I would rather hear them then live them. I've done plenty of "fun" things in my life, some I regret now, and other things I would do again. I love hearing your stories!

Yeah, I think my invitation to that party got lost in the mail.
