The Rest of the Story
also known as be careful what you desire because you just might get what you deserve
Driving toward Fells Point I check my cell phone and have a message from P. saying the restaurant/bar I chose for us to meet at was closed (still from storm surge from the hurricane) and she let's me know of another restaurant where we can meet.
I call her cell, she answers and I say that's fine I'm on the way and running about 5 minutes late
Get to Fells Point and there's 20K+ people at the Street Festival and .... the restaurant she suggested is closed
So I call her cell, leave a message and walk around for about 30 minutes, I head back to the restaurant she suggested still closed and I check the restaurant next door. Don't see her. I wait a little longer (total wait time 1 hour to be extremely courteous) and take off.
I'm back home by 3:30 changed and at the RenFest by 4:30

and making merry
and ..........
as this thread/story is getting a little long I left the end ambiguous. You can make up your own ending, please know I have a weakness for Redheads
