Every few months at Clem’s, there is some werid drunk loser that
approaches me/us. Last night, I was sitting in the parking lot waiting
for everybody else to arrive when this extremely drunk lady pulled up
in a pick-up driven by her possible boyfriend. She practically fell out
of the damn truck. She was shoeless. She saw me sitting in my car with
the window open. I, mistakenly, looked in her direction. She stumbled
(and I emphasize the word stumble) over to me and asked what I was
doing in her car. Normally, I have a smart ass response for drunk
people, but I had nothing, as she seemed sorta pissed. I just said
something like “uhhhh………ok?” She wobbled there for a second and
laughed and said she was kidding. She then held out her hand and I
shook it, although to be honest, I think she was just using my hand as
balance. Her boyfriend came around and walked her up to the door, which
appeared to be quite the struggle. Later on inside the bar, she had
made some really crazy remarks to Scooty, but I can’t remember what she
said.I have been waiting for today for most of my life. Today, my 2 favorite
teams played each other for the first time since 1918, and since I was
born in 1919, as you might have figured it out, I have never seen them
play each other. And today, my beloved Cubs put quite the hurtin’ on
the Red Sox! I have been very suprised by the Cubs thus far this month.
They have really played much better than I expected. They have a rough
schedule for June and have gone 6-3.Anywho, today I went to the Foundry on my lunch to watch some of the
game. I swear, if it weren’t for sports, I wouldn’t go to this place.
The food is expensive and only average. The bartender lady that I
always order from is not very friendly. And its dark in there. They do,
however, have OTB, which I did not play today. Instead, I just ordered
lunch and watched the game. There were a decent amount of people there
for a Friday afternoon. And pretty much, all of them were there to
watch the game. Anywho, I had some sorta of chicken tacos. They were,
average and sure as hell did not taste like $10 tacos (after tax and
tip). If it weren’t for the Cubs, I wouldn’t even go to that place,
although, it was named the best sports bar in the midwest by the
Chicago Tribune.Didn’t do much tonight. Cleaned the house in preperation for tomorrow night’s big card game here. Should be fun. Should be.
