I’m sure EVERYONE was insanely curious…..
I wore the yellow tie.
Knowing that black, while classic, made me look like a secret service agent or a Blues Brother – that wasn’t the look I was going for last night.
My friends hadn’t showed up yet when I arrived, and while I wasn’t overdressed by any stretch, was the only guy wearing a tie and a jacket. Which I kinda liked. Getting a chance to dress nicely every once in a while is fun. I stood around for the wine tasting, then commenced drinking water – while my friends weren’t there, I tend to get myself into trouble the more I drink. I guess you could call it hyper-socializing or something. My friends arrived and I have to say, we were the best dressed bunch there. I took the swing lessons with his wife, which were fun. The regular instructor bailed, so we learned the basic swing, and we didn’t do too badly – it was something I could see myself doing for a night out.
Then poker began, and long story short, I won the tournament. I did get extremely lucky once and knocked someone out when I should have been knocked out, but I rivered her to get three of a kind. My Buddy played very well, and I was impressed.
All in all, a fun evening – thanks everyone for your suggestions.
