Ok so I have Cacharelle all night. I only made some semi plans up to about 11:00pm and Im stickin to em.. We drive off and immediately she likes the Lincoln. "Ooooh is that a TV in the dash?" she says... Im like "No its my Nav and DVD player." She gets all excited "Ohhh snap my manager just gave me my DVD from my last show!! I got right her Hol up!!" Im thinking right her? Why does she sound like Nelly and shes from East Oakland born and raised? Whatever. So she gives me the DVD. All I can say is "Ohhh Damn!!" I dont play DVD's while driving but I swear I almost had 3 accidents on the bridge. Not gonna say what it was cuz yall are grown. Imaginations. Use them. Anyway so we cross the bridge and pull up on the Embarcadero. First stop Sinbad's. I make sure we have a bomb table overlooking the water and Alcatraz and so on. She's impressed except she was like "Aint that Alcatraz? If they was still open my cuzn Boosie would prolly be there instead of Pelican Bay." Keep in mind Im keepin my best poker face at everything she says but making mental notes. Waiter comes up...."Can I get you anything to drink?" Now Im driving so Im taking it easy "Ill take a mudslide and she'll have..." "Yall got any Boones??" she said with excitement.. I was like "WTF??" Waiter says "Let me check." While he's gone I say "Honey dont be surprised if they dont have Boones but you might like a nice wine to go with dinner.." Just then the waiter shows up with a bottle of strawberry boones!!!! I was like double WTF??? What happened to Sinbads?? She was like "Heeeeeeyyyy!!! Thats what Im talkin bout!!" Waiter starts to pour her a glass and she says "Im cool. Just leave the bottle." Im thinking "Oh damn what a night this is going to be." Anyway dinner went smooth. We leave and drive up the Embarcadero and onto Bay St where there is a PG&E substation. I make a call to let the job know Ill be parked inside (right across the street from Pier 39) and will let them know when I leave. I pull in and she says "Oh you make a call and you got it like that? This aint no lot or garage. Whats this?" Im like "This is one of the substations Im in charge of." She says "So you can park for free? Damn!!! Yall got any of these around 850 Bryant cuz I can neva find parkin." Once again Im thinking "Good Lord" but only say "We have parking at the Moscone Center." She was like "Sheeeittt 5 blocks down and 3 blocks over!! You comin with me next time I have to appear." Why I havent acted like I was sick or something by now and had to take her home I dont know. I just said "Ok." So anyway we do the tourist thing... walk the wharf.. throw pennies at the Sea Lions (She liked that a little too much) did the Peir 39 thing... ok wait... why did she kick my arse at Ms Pacman and I have high scores at a bunch of arcades? Anyway again, Im tired, had a decent night and turn to her and say "Its getting late and I have to work in the morning. Hope you had a good time." She says "Late? Good time? Ohh this night aint ova!! Remember we going back to yo spot!!" Just then she pulls out the bottle of Boones and takes a big swig. Im thinking to myself "Whateva!! (yeah I said it like that in my mind) There aint no way shes coming back to Sac with me!! She'll be passed out halfway across the bridge!! Ill wake her up in Oakland!!" So anyway I was wrong... she passes out somewhere around Vacaville.... Yeah Im weak... Just then Ace appears. "Darryl (he never calls me Darryl unless he's bothered by something) when I told you to get out, meet people and reacclimate yourself to society (Ace tries to use big words on me) it wasnt about lust." Im telling you as soon as he appeared I tried to fill my mind with Jeapordy questions... "What is Mt Kilimanjaro. What is the Marrienes Trench. What is the Sea of Tranquility. Who's buried in Grant's tomb?" Ace said "You can try to play Alex Trebek of you want to but Im saying no more. And if you werent driving I would have tazed you back in Fairfield. Remember what I said and I will see you soon."
