Sunday Funday

I slept like the pillow held my face captive! Sometimes I awoke for a phone call but went back to sleep. I officially woke up around 4pm eager to go to dinner.  Carolyn had invited me to a going away dinner for Chaz because he was headed to LA to shoot a pilot. I was the first one there. Go figure.  I got there a 8:10pm.  The Carolyn told me they were running late and to have a drink. (I did not) Apparently this is her's and Peter's spot. The bar tender and manager knew them very well.  As I was told to wait because the table was not yet ready, I was told to stand with the rest of the party. I didn't know the people there it appeared to be two white couples. I spoke but did not introduce myself yet.  I wanted to wait. after we were seated I introduced myself to the lady closest to me and then the rest of the table. it turns out that their parents were visiting from Marietta Georgia. we SAT and talked and laughed for maybe 20 minutes before I got suspicious. I was asked if I was meeting someone there that night. I said don't you know Peter and Carol and they replied no! that sent the whole table laughing. while we were talking they called over a waitress and told him of the mix up. they are really nice people. I told him why I was in New York and gave them my card. they suggested a church for me to visit. I think the father was a pastor in Atlanta. not long after that my party arrived.
I told him of the mix up that happened previously and we all had a good laugh. Carolyn instructed us on what to eat and order because she knew the whole menu. She even had a special drink which I did not partake of. only because it was said to be spicy. I ordered a mojito mango. it was so good it had a sugar Kane in it! while we were waiting for the drinks a friend of the guest of honor shows up. he was one of the lead actors in psych the TV show. it still blows me away that I come here to this city shunned by the people I know I like to end up in a much better crowd of people by actions and positions. I love it! We talked about shows we loved and both of them with new shows. after dinner we left to go to the village underground which was down the street.
As soon as we come into the place we are seated with the host Kim Davis and her guests Peter Guns. It was a right In front of me stage!  I asked if I could squeeze in on the list and was told yes. there were some amazing singers there!  as the night rolled on it became apparent to me that I would not get to sing. but as I look at the table across from I see Derek Luke from Empire! he was sitting with his wife and family and I couldn't wait for him to get up so I could get a picture. I was a little salty about not being able to sing but seeing him made it alright.
