Luncheon

Hello Everyone:

I would like to start off by saying I had a restful sleep, but I can't.  A honking car alarm get going off in the middle of the night.  This morning it was the battle of the car alarms.  It was like the slightest breeze is setting it off.  At least it's not a talking car alarm or worse.  I take that back, they're all pretty bad.  For my next car, I'm spending the extra dollars on a LoJack system.  Not annoying car alarms for me.  In other news, I have to start getting ready to go to this luncheon in a short while.  Fortunately, it's close by so I don't have to rush.  I figure I'll just stay long enough to be polite and leave.  Between us, I'd rather forget the whole thing, just hang out and write all afternoon.  However, I did say I was coming so at least I can make an effort to show up, look pretty, and be civil.  I just hope no one gets any strange Ida's about match making.  I know mom wouldn't be too disappointed if someone set me up with a "nice Jewish boy."  Bonus points if he's religious.  Please.  Of course I could let slip into the chitchat the fact that I have an Afro-Brit, non-Jewish guy whom I love dearly.  I wouldn't be making up anything or crack wise.  It's the truth.  At least it would throw any would-be match makers off the the trail.  The flipside is it could backfire and send every would-be match maker into overdrive.  I could just flash the extra piercings and see what happens.  That might get a mild rise out of this conservative crowd.  Come to think about it, I haven't lobbed any live verbal ammo in a while, so I'm due.  Anyway, got to go.  Later
