Remember when I was talking about this? I said, there are 3 majow shows going on in Michigan next weekend. I had an "invitation" to do all 3, but I didn't send in the money or application right away. I figured they would book up.. and my plan was to see "Motley Crue" (at the Crue fest), if I couldn't. Damn, I was so hyped up over that.
What I consider the TOP show in the state called today. The one I was told they were booked solid (Johndude, this is the one you were talking to me about near Ann Arbor MI). They had a cancellation, and called to ask us to come. So of course, I gotta do that instead of the concert. I just now have to order about 300 more chains monday, as I am certain I will go through them. This (I expect) will be the busiest show I do this year.
This weekend. Well, right now I am in "Oxford Michigan" (Near Detroit). I was gonna share a booth with my friend Paul. I am staying at his house, on his computer right now. It was supposed to be a big event at "Canterbury Village". This is a show I know nothing about, but in a busy location". I know of the "village", it's like a tourist trap.
We got here, and it was pouring down rain. Weatherman said.. rain all day. Vendors were all setting up, and I thought to myself "no fucking way". For one, I knew it would rain all day. Another, although this is a tourist trap.. I seen how it was set up. Nobody would make "nothing" today. Paul was like "what you wanna do Gary" (I think he was still wanting to set up). I said, I really don't care, but we won't make crap here. Do whatever you want.. I sure won't set up.
So it was decided. We'd go set up at the "Biker event" we plan to do in the morning, Set up tents.. crash there for the night.
Plans change.. lol. That's the most simple way I can put it.
Roxann had my van, so I was with Paul. Paul's truck broke down. It seems to be his "voltage regulator". It's getting way too much voltage. It blew out both his headlights, and the CD player caught fire. We went to "autozone". He knew people there, and the came out to help him work on it. I did too for awhile, realized there was enough help. I spotted a bar down the street. I gave him most the money I had for parts. I went to the bar.
Don't tell "Roxann", but damn this bartender was hot! (Kidding, Roxann and I have a good relationship, I hide nothing from her) she had tatoos on her arm. I was admiring. Soon, this 24 yr old was "exposing" all the tatoos all over her.. lol. I'm cool with that.. lol.
Turns out.. she is a major model, but a bartender too. She has been on the cover of many major magazines. She makes money modeling, but needs to work too.
So I ask her, "Where do you do most modeling". I know you are on some magazines.. but that can't keep you in money all the time?
She says to me, I mainly model for "fettish sites". WOW! She suddenly got "way more cool to me"! Do you have a "website". "No, mainly I am just on "Myspace" she says". "Can you give me the address?" "SURE", I'll write it down...
Now before you get all "Bitchy" at me over this. Consider. One thing, the chances of me banging something like that are "nill". I wasn't trying either. I'm coming home to Roxann as always. But it still was fun to talk to her.
Paul walks in. Gary.. I got a few more problems. Is there anyway you can lend me more money? I basically gave all I had.
So we worked on the truck the next few hours. We had ALOT of minds on the thing, but it still isn't fixed. I'm not going into all that stuff here today, I'll just say it pretty much consumed us. Plus I worked on both his computers. I gotta go to bed soon, and will do the "Biker event" tomorrow.
You just have "no clue" how many I meet in my travels...
"A Journey into my life".. as my blog says..
Gary :)
Well
