Party princess... errr... Queen
It's the holiday party for the Star-News and we're going across the street to the Ice House for dinner, drinks and a comedy show. I've changed my clothes, fixed my makeup- adding glitter as always and am ready for fun. I've invited local singer/songwriter/guitarist extraordinaire Joe Walla to join me as my guest. I love hanging out with Joe, as always makes me laugh!... ummm, not because of his music, but because of his personality~ he's one happy, easygoing guy.
Dinner's great, but the co-worker chatter is better. I really like the people I work with, they're sooo nice.
At one point, Mike Moreno from sales stands up to make announcements. I prepare for the usual, good work guys, we appreciate you, blah, blah, blah. It's fine, but I'd really just like to eat my dessert.
"I'd like you all to know that the Queen of the Doo Dah Parade is here," Mike says.
What? Oh boy...
He encourages me to stand, so I do and blow kisses at everyone as they clap. Then I use my dismissive wave, entoning, "Carry on, as you were."
They laugh. I sit. 'Nuff said.
