Good beads on dead Tuesday

"I noticed that several of you took the weekend off!” Was the first thing that @owasco said when we stepped into Jerry’s for a quick drink. “I’m sorry Stacey” I said “It was a weird weekend, I felt robbed."

@wakeupkitty was actually the one who had an encounter with thieves. There was a break in at her house and they ended up stealing some beads, toys and a stuffed animal from one of her daughters. The stuffed animal hurt the most. It was a great one, a German Sheppard.

Luckily, the police were able to catch the burglars quite quickly. One of the toys was a present from @balticbadger and he was able to track the location down. After filling some paperwork all the stolen items were properly returned. He was still feeling good about himself. What at the start seemed like a major crisis that would forever scar @wakeupkitty’s daughter, was now turning into a minor bump in the road.

I asked @balticbadger if he would join me for a #Seven77 workout session at the @actifit gym down on @nathanmars boulevard. “I don’t do these short form - 280 - workouts” he said. “I’m going to find a way to get you involved” I laughed.

I took sip of my SBI and looked at @owasco. "I think I should do something back for the #mmfan family. @theycallmedan has really motivated me to do something back for the community." "I got your back" she said "I hope you feel my love and admiration.”

I did.. the mood was good at the @freewritehouse on @mariannewest boulevard. It was good to be back, people kept coming in as the sidewalk chillings at Jerry’s was about to begin. @emms had joined our table as well.
"Remember when we had so much fun together?”

Yes. I thought to myself. Last time was at the Freewrite 500. @improv had been on a road trip and missed us so much he gave everyone present a free SBI. Good times.

The mood kept improving. @botefarm stood up and grabbed the mic. The jukebox started to play a Cat Stevens instrumental.

And there was my Lucy
Bum bum shaking, teasing us all
Gorgeous, lovely, elegant
Taking the class, so full

Whoa, where do you go?
When you don't want no one to know?
Who told tomorrow Tuesday's dead
