First networking event
When a once divorced (allegedly) gay guy asks if you are "ok," make sure he didn't actually ask if you are "gay" before you say yes. He kept calling me honey and commented on the nice condition of my hands.
Later on I was kissed by a twice divorced and over twice my age woman after I commented, "who wouldn't think she was beautiful." Her boyfriend/husband/conjugal buddy watched from the next booth over. Gay guy said, "thanks for reminding me you're not gay." I did it because her card was in my pocket and she was leading awkwardly across the bar.
This was all after we each bought rounds of shots. Their cards remind me of their names, but how does one follow those leads?

HA! I don't even know how to respond to that... But way to go on the 40+ category.
you know. i haven't read your blog in forever and i really shouldn't be surprised by this entry, so i'm not. I think i'm only surprised that the gay guy didn't get some lip action also.
but. i AM surprised AND disappointed that you're not going to be in Dublin. It was one of Nob's selling points.
Hilarious. Better told over the telle.
delicious entry.
i have been hit on by a 40-something-year-old divorcee at a networking event. after turning him down, he insisted on giving me mace.
i couldn't follow up on that lead either. (but i got a self-defense device out of it - score?)
she said that time was unfair to a woman her age...

It should be noted that he evaded my handshake offer and went straight for the hug upon my announcement of departure. My mother didn't even hug me that hard when I got back from Egypt after 7 months.

he must have had beer goggles and beer senses..
unlike you, though, he will never be allowed to pass out on my bed before, during, or after the party.
