So, is knowing how to play pool one of the requirements for being an official card-carrying lesbian? If so, I'm getting there! LOL
Last night was our social group meeting night. We had a nice time again. They are now renting out the cafe section of a gourmet coffee/tea/food store. So we have the whole place to ourselves. Last night the weather was gorgeous, so we sat on the patio and chatted. There weren't nearly as many people there, but that was nice because the atmosphere was very relaxed and we got to talk more in-depth to some of the ladies. I think there are a couple of people Caly and I will try to hook up with for dinner.
Anyway, afterward we migrated over to the gay/lesbian bar we've been going to. Caly's been wanting to teach me how to play pool, but I really didin't feel comfortable trying to learn in front of all these women. But, as the night was dying down, Caly and one other woman coaxed me into playing. I didn't do half bad, although at the end of the game, they let me practice shooting the balls that were left on the table. It must have taken me 10 minutes to get the last one in! Oh well!
Just wanted to share. Hope you all have a great day!

We would love to just drop in...That would be so nice to sit and join in conversation ..

Yep, the requirement is that you must AT LEAST enjoy attempting to play pool ;)~
And you Cat.. you can't tell me you wouldn't enjoy an attempt again, maybe in quieter surroundings, right?
Lou and I play every now and then. LOL, I used to think I was a pretty fair shot! We had a big table in the house when I was a kid and I used to kick the pants off everybody. So I thought I was going to impress my gal, you know? Come to find out, she's a pistol at pool, dead on. LOL, she can be SO butch sometimes, the wee one!
I am envious of your social group ... and it's meeting place *eyebrow wiggle, or is that just a Pavlovian/caffeine tic at the 'gourmet coffee/tea/food store???* This all sounds fabulous, and I'm pleased for you both!

Whew! Well, I pretended to enjoy it at least! LOLOL Seriously, I really did enjoy it, and with a little practice I think I could hold my own.
Thanks for your thoughts, Nony. Yes, the meeting place is perfect! hehe They have wonderful southern pecan coffee, and it's free on our nights there.
I'm glad we took this step in finding some friends here. It is a pretty closeted community for the most part, so I think we have found a little gem. Even if we don't make any long-term close friendships, it's good to hang out with family sometimes.
Hugs!
Thanks, Cat. I was very shy about playing too, but there weren't many people in the bar, so that helped ease my nerves a bit.
Hugs,
Wow, that all sounds like soo much fun.
