Journal mcgrew's Journal: Angie 5
Angie, Angie, when will those clouds all disappear?
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here?
Angie, you're beautiful - ain't it time we said goodbye?
All the dreams we held so close seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear.
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here?
Angie, Angie, ain't it good to be alive?
I can't get that goddamn syrupy pop song out of my head, and I didn't even hear it. No, those aren't all the words to it, either. I hate that fucking song.
It's in my head because I met another woman, and her name is Angie.
Annie called to chat. She's been calling me about every day; She stopped "turning tricks" a few months ago, and I've been giving her moral support. She doesn't seem to get much from her boyfriend.
He's part of the problem - she met him prostituting; he was a "trick". If a hooker says "trick or treat" to you tonight, it means you don't have to pay her if you don't want to, she's treating.
Ann wound up moving in with the boyfriend, stopped hooking, but he still treats her like a whore. I'm surprised it's lasted as long as it has; they've been together over six months.
She hasn't been faithful to him (well, I know THAT for a solid fact), but she's not soliciting nor taking money for sex, either. She's pretty sure he's been seeing someone else too. Goddamn Peyton Place around here!
I offered to take her out for a few drinks after I went grocery shopping.
Then Charlie came by wanting to borrow twenty bucks and my car - twenty bucks then, the car later, as she had a house to clean. I told her I may be able to, but since I was taking Annie out for drinks...
"WHAT???"
Damn. She hates Annie. I think Annie was one of the ones she used to run off from Ralph's. Oddly, she seems to hate her even more now that Annie's lost weight and stopped whoring.
It seems Charlie was afraid Annie was going to con me out of my money before I got the mortgage paid. I told her I'd break my date with Annie, and did - she told me if I went out with Annie, she'd never speak to me again.
Women.
After putting the groceries away I went to Felber's. Ruthie was tending bar, and her mother was there drinking. I chatted with Ruthie's mom for a while, and she told me I owed her a drink, so I bought her one.
The phone rang; it was Tami. "Watcha doin'?"
"I'm at Felbers having a beer. What're you doin'?"
"Staying sober, I've been drunk for a week."
After talking for a minute, as I was getting to go back inside a not too bad looking woman came out with a cigarette in her hand.
Guys, ALWAYS carry a lighter, you never know when you might want to set something on fire. Like a not bad looking woman's cigarette.
"Here," I said, lighting my lighter. "Let me be a gentleman."
"Wow", she said, "There's still gentlemen?"
"We're almost extinct," I said, "but there's still a few of us around. Hell, I'll even open a car door for you."
"Wow!"
We introduced urselves; she said her name was Angie. We talked as she finished her smoke and went in. I offered to buy her a beer, and she declined, saying she always bought her own.
We clicked. I liked this woman, and it was obvious she liked me.
And then a big mean looking ugly guy came in. I'd seen him there before; he was always frowning. I could have sworn I'd seen him with a different woman.
Angie went to the restroom, and Big Ugly explained that she lived with him, and he was the father of her nine children.
When she came back she was with him; I started taling to Ruthies's mom again.
Big Ugly went to the restroom, and Angie asked me to marry her!
"I thought you had an old man," I said, looking towards the restroom.
"He's an asshole, I'm trying to get rid of him. Do you like kids?"
I went home early.
Why does Charlie (Score:2)
Why does Charlie get to veto your dates? Unless and until she spreads them legs, the doesn't get a vote.
Or, wait. You did say you were bangin' one of your boarders, but you did not mention whom it was.
Carry on, then.

She owes me money, and even though she's always paid me back, if she gets pissed it takes a little longer, and this is the mortgage paycheck. I'm going to be broke in a week, and don't get paid again fro two.
I'm kicking myself for loaning her the money. I loaned Linda some money too, and I'm kicking myself for that as well. At least I didn't loan Tami any.

Don't worry. The government will bail you out.
If they'd get around to legalizing prostitution, this country wouldn't be half bad.

They would if I was a multimillionaire. Only the rich get government help these days.
HEHE (Score:2)
I had a quick look at that jps guy.
LMAO when I saw his only freind is "Whineymacfanboy"
But he has 10 foes.
Somehow, that seems appropriate. (-:
At least my govt is going to bail me out, December this year, like all disabled pensioners in Australia I will get a $1400 cheque! WOOHOOO! I love living in a compassionate society!
