Recognized for the first time

 Wow! I've found even more stories in print and online and I'm having the time of my life.

 
My friend Linda and I go to the Dockside Grill in West Covina for dinner and music. We sit in the bar and enjoy the sounds of The Subs, a local acoustic rock trio, as we sip soup- clam chowder for her and lobster bisque for me. Yummy!


The Subs introduce me to the crowd and ask me to stand up and tell everyone about the parade. I do my thing and then turn to the band.


"Carry on, as you were," I say adding a dismissive wave.


It's 10:30 p.m. and I'm sleepy. I stand up to leave and The Subs stop and ask everyone to bid me goodbye. Many stand as I make my way out of the restaurant.


This queen stuff is getting better by the minute.

Michelle Mills aka Naughty Mickie

I am a features staff writer for the San Gabriel Valley Newspaper Group, and after seven auditions resulting in five consecutive years spent as a runner-up, I finally, rightfully, became the Queen of the 31st Occasional Pasadena Doo Dah Parade 2007/2008. I love rock n' roll, motorcycles, swords and sushi. I hate sitting still. Read my blog regularly to bring some excitement into your otherwise dull existence. Oh, and you may stop kneeling now and carry on -- as you were... ~ Follow me on Twitter @ Mickieszoo ~
