Well! The open mic was a bust. No electricity tonight...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

So, I came home...

Just subscribed to a new poetry magazine...

And decided to settle down here and see what all you good folk are up to tonight...

I hope nothing you wanted to do tonight got stopped in its tracks!

:hi:

1. Couldn't turn it into an Open Talk Real Loud, huh?

:P

[CaliforniaPeggy]

3. My dear Iggo!

Trust me, sweetie!

We talk plenty loud, the experienced folk, anyway!

But without lights etc, it is difficult ..


:P

[Iggo]

6. Lights! Of course!

Silly me.

[Ptah]

2. You should remember that Abraham Lincoln watched TV by candlelight.

:hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. My dear Ptah!

LOL!

He did?

Wow.

Learn something new every damn day, right?

:o

5. Should have had some flashlights.

Then the people in the front row could have shown them on you!

That's a bummer, though. Hope the next time goes better.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. My dear SeattleGirl!

Well, we could have done it with flashlights...

But the coffee house would have had trouble blending their fancy drinks without power!

I've been going there for about a year and a half now, and this is the first time this has happened...

The whole block was out...

Who knew?

I'm sure it'll be fine next week!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

8. That would have been difficult!

Wonder if a transformer went out, though they usually take out a larger area when they blow.

[Iggo]

9. No fancy coffee?

Well now that just wouldn't be civilized!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

10. Well...

Some people do like their coffee, ya know!

:P

[Strong Atheist]

11. Sorry about that...

:hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

12. No worries!

I'm sure it's fixed by now...

I'll get my open mic next week...

Thanks, sweetie...

:hug:

13. Peggy

Have you considered joining the local Toastmasters Club? If so, you could pick up tips on what to do when you are supposed to speak and something goes wrong......

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. My dear Dyedinthewoolliberal...

Nah...I have no problem doing public speaking!

I think most folks would have problems speaking in a room w/out electricity!

There was no open mic...we all went home...

:shrug:
