Mama Blu's

Cover Charge Mon Apr 27

Hey y'all been a long time but I figure it's time to dust this bar off and get back to cover charges and fun. :)

So cover charge for today.... **

What was your last dumbass moment? You know the moment when you realize you just fucked up and now don't know what to do. Come on share with the class.

Mine was today. About 30 minutes ago. My dog is constantly licking her paws, so I have to put medication on them and wrap 'em. Well she tears the bandages off. So I invested in bitter spray to spray on the bandages. Smart move right? Unless in the spraying of the bandages, you unknowingly get it on your hands. Which, it seems, I did. Wanna know how I found out? You guessed it, somehow I brought my hands near my mouth and now it's on my lips. Hubby comes into the room and I'm spitting and throwing water on my face like a madwoman. Ugh. Dumbass moment for the day.

**
Now as every good business needs to earn money (and Mama’s House of Blu ain’t any different) there will be a cover charge. Each night you will be expected to do somethin’ if you want to hang out in my place. So be sure to check for the price of admittance which is usually in the form of a question to answer.
 
Ummm...welllll...lemme see......hhhmmmm....kinda been too busy to do anything dumbass but you know...something will come up....sooner then later ;)

Lol. I'll let you come back to it. I need to get better about posting cover charges on a more consistent basis. I miss the discussions.
 
Cover Charge Sun March 21

Wow! So I've been a very bad bar owner. Can I blame COVID for shtting me down? Today I've had the pleasure of charting with Dazer and Nyx and I remembered how much fun it used to be to come to Lit, have a drink, and just shoot the breeze. So I'm dusting off the bar, pulling the cloths off the tables, and opening back up.

Actually, I've done something really exciting recently. I've been fat most of my life and no matter how much weight I lose, this stomach is wrecked! I've been talking for years about getting a tummy tuck but life tends to get in the way. Kids need shit or I can't set aside 4-6 weeks of recovery time. Until now that is. I've made the appointment to go for a consultation at the end of Apr. and hopefully have the procedure done in the fall. Cross fingers, please!

So that seems like a good cover charge. What have you done that either fulfilled a long time dream/goal? Or if you haven't, do you have a big time dream/goal that you are working towards?

Hey Blu!

Welcome back! I've also started hanging around here a little more lately, posting a little but mainly messaging with a couple cool people. I've been wanting to see the Grand Canyon my whole life, and I think I'm finally going to get to later this summer. A couple days there then to the Pacific Northwest...She has friends there and that's also another check off the bucket list for me. I'm glad you're getting what you've wanted too!

Ohmigod! Hey hey hey!!! Oh I'm excited for you! I admit the Grand Canyon is on my list of places to see before I die. Not top of the list but definitely on it. Lol. Oh I'm so happy to see you hanging out here again. I'm a bit sporadic because my life is fricking crazy but I miss it and the old gang.

I miss those days too! Playing Hearts and talking smack into the wee hours....Glad you and yours are doing good, I'll be checking in more often you're gonna be around!

Hearts!! Haven't played in forever! Not since you guys. Damn it.
 
Ken and any good bourbon over a large ice cube.

Thanks for asking blu!

Did I get the right cover? You been gone a while...

I have been gone a very long time. :(

Today's cover is "What have you done that either fulfilled a long time dream/goal? Or if you haven't, do you have a big time dream/goal that you are working towards?"


Answer that and I'll get to work on that bourbon. ;)

Well this is awesome...and way to go for doing something for you! Fingers crossed :heart:

Without going into too much detail...I put together my own business doing something that I love to do. It doesn't feel much like work most days and that was the goal for me. Sometimes I dream about relocating in the future...somewhere that's warm all year round...but most of the time I'm pretty content right where I am... so we'll see about that one.

That is fantastic!! I am always amazed by people who really go for what they want and make it happen! I admit I get sidetracked a lot and end up not following through. Or maybe it's just that I'm lazy as hell. :D

Okay, Boss Lady! What's your pleasure?

And what made you actually do it? Did something happen that made you look around and go "fuck it! I'm doin' this!"?

I actually have socks that say Boss Lady...or Lady Boss depending which feet I put them on :D I know it's a little boring but I think I'll just have an iced tea tonight if you've got it...extra lemon please : )

In a nutshell yes!! I had what a lot of people would consider a very good job but I hated it and dreaded going every single day. I knew what I was drawn to and thought about it for years. Then one day it just occurred to me...nothing is stopping me besides the thought that I can't and my own insecurities...and it just wasn't true...and so I started to change my way of looking at things and I did it : )

One iced tea with all the lemons! Girl after my own heart! :heart:

So how long did it take before you knew you had made the right choice and the nerves died down? And was it a gradual change where you worked it on the side until it was feasible to go full time or did you have a "bye, bitches! I'm out!" moment at work?

That looks divine...thanks Mama :heart:

I said "Bye Bitches" :D That part was easy. I actually knew in that moment that it was the right choice....it just felt like such a relief. The first 6 months were a little uncertain and a huge learning curve but I haven't regretted it for a single second. Cheers :heart:

Easy, I'd like to travel to the ruins at Petra, Jordan. Planning to go as soon as current world events allow.

Now. About that bourbon.

Nice!! I love to travel. I had so many plans before COVID hit. This was gonna be the year for me. So why Jordan? Is there a sentimental reason?

Ah yes...your bourbon. Well I have been told that Pappy Van Winkle is THE drink. I am not much of a bourbon drinker, so what do you think?
