Drinking and dancing and cops. . . oh my

Last night I took Bibik to the Owl & Thistle to share with him my regular Wednesday Night swing dance scene. He had driven back from Spokane in the afternoon and was ready to party. You got to love a guy who fills up his pockets with tricks, gags and assorted nonsense when getting ready to go out. We had a good time, drinking, dancing and making people smile and laugh.

Emily was there and in rare form. I love watching her dance and I love dancing with her. Her lipstick had broke and she was applying it with her finger. She looked at me and asked if it was on straight. I wanted to press my lips to hers to adjust it just a tad, but instead, simply said, "It looks perfect". I got an evite from her inviting me to her house warming party Saturday Night. I'll be at the Fenix till close to midnight but told her I'd call to see if it's still going on. It starts at 7PM and will involve. . . you guessed it. . . drinking and dancing.

Bibik got in a dance with Katie and surprised me as he knew his way around the dance floor and had some nice moves. I danced a bunch with Julie, Katie and Emily. Overall a very pleasant evening among friends. We didn't stay for the drunk set. We were going to another club when we got pulled over by the police. I couldn't imagine what I had done wrong, we had been in the car less than a few minutes. While Julie & I had our seat belts on, Jeff did not. The officer started by telling us that this was being video and audio recorded. He explained that the reason that he pulled us over was because Jeff was not wearing his seat belt. I explained that he was from Chicago and that I had neglected to tell him about the mandatory seat belt law in Seattle. He asked for Jeff's license. Jeff pulled out his fire wallet and said this sort of thing really burns him up. As he opens the wallet, flames leap from it. He then looked at it with disgust and said I hate it when that happens as he pulled out some burnt cash and a melted credit card. . . . very funny. After running a check on the license he let us go, Jeff got off with a written warning.
