I had to work friday night with the new bartender, Tammy. She's cool. It was pretty busy. The local football team won and everyone was in a partying mood. Saturday was excellent! My pal, Vicki, invited me on a huge houseboat. The thing had 2 bathrooms, a jacuzzi and several bedrooms. It was fun! I ended up going out on the speed boat for awhile. I got to drive it! I drank bubbly and took lots of pictures. I left my car at the boat dock, I still need to retrieve it. I came back to my apt. last night, took a nap and then "O" came and got me. We met up with a cowboy named, Fritz, at my bar. We went out to the cider festival's beer garden. They had a live band and we had fun dancing. "O" and I were both pining for Fritz. In the end, I just had them drop me off at my place. I slept in today and woke up to watch the NASCAR race. Oh, I love watching Dale Jr.! He was having a pretty good day, leading for many laps then his dang engine blew.

DEI had a bad day today. The race was exciting as all git go! I thought Tony Stewart would win, then Jimmie Johnson was leading and BANG! Out of nowhere comes Jeff Gordon to cross the finish line first! Holy Cow! I know a couple people from here who went to Talladega for the race. Lucky, lucky, lucky. I'm going to wear my Talladega shirt tonight at work. I almost got to see a race there back in 2004. Junior won that day. I made it all the way to the Birmingham airport, ticket and pit pass in hand. I was left stranded there, so I never made it to the race.

My ex got me a shirt though. Anyhoooo ~ I had a fabulous weekend. Well, time to get ready for work. Hopefully Ella will come to get me and we can get my car. She said she would this morning but now I can't reach her on her phone. OK, Hope everyone has a wonderful week! Peace ~ Trixie Earnhardt
