Neighbors Christmas Dinner at the Mecca

Whats wrong with me?

I go to a Christmas party at the Mecca Restaurant with friends and I leave early.

We arrived at 7pm and the bar/restaurant was not very busy.

The 14 of us were seated at a long table.

We had a pre-dinner drink, ordered our meals and had great conversation, curing all the problems.

At about 9pm, a few had to leave.

The rest continued to talk and a few started to go to the bar.

As soon as we walked away from the table, it was cleared off by the staff and moved from its location.

Almost instantly, the crystal mirrored ball lit up, spot lights pointed in a ever changing directions.

THE DANCE FLOOR WAS OPEN.. Only 5 of us stayed at the bar and were bumped over and over by folks walking past us to get to the dance floor.

It wasn't too soon after, that the joint was filled up with kids, you know the under 40 set.

Sad, Frank Sinatra's and Beyonce's soon blasted from the speakers.

Its amazing what a cheap Karioke machine makes people do.

It got so loud, I said good-nite and told Karolyn to call when she wanted to be picked up.

I went home and to sleep before midnight...I heard her come home at 2am.

Laughing and joking with those that drove her home.

I was so glad she had a nice time and I enjoyed the peace of my home and bed.

SO WHATS WRONG WITH THAT PICTURE, NOTHING.

We both enjoyed the evening.

Oh, it was her 58th bday dec 10th, and a couple rounds of Happy Birthday made her night.

Thats all folks good nite c'ya jim
