The annual home show at the Minneapolis Convention Center has always been a favorite of mine. I like how vendors assemble their booths with building and landscaping samples. However, I hadn't been since I was a kid and frankly, I was a bit excited! However, I had NO IDEA, there would be so many hidden places to explore.
Chuck, my 50-something boyfriend, and I had free tickets and it was a nice sunny, albeit cold day to go somewhere. We parked in the garage that was hooked onto the skyway that led to the convention center. We weren't meeting up with any friends, but we knew we would make some, because we give off positive energy to all those around. Random strangers will comment to us about our energy or what we're wearing or whatever.
Something seriously funny happened as we were riding the escalator down from skyway. It appears that the escalator going up was stopped. There was a sign that it was out of order and you could use the elevator if you needed. Well, a couple got to the base of that escalator as we were getting to the bottom of ours. They looked sincerely puzzled at the stopped escalator, which honestly, if you think about it, just looks like stairs. Anyway, they pushed the "reset" button a couple of times and decided that since it didn't move, they would have to leave and find one that did work. When Chuck was telling me that he had observed this, I just cracked up. That's what I like about Chuck, he amuses me all the time. And, we find the similar amusing, which is why we have such an amazing sex life ..... as you will get to know if you follow along with the skyway scribe!
OK, on to the sh"O"w ....
The hall was crowded with a lot of do-it-yourself-ers eyeing the latest materials and shopping for home improvement vendors. I was a fiend for the candy dishes .... Seriously ... put some candy in your booth and I will come over. I stuffed piece after piece in my mouth and my pocket soon bulged with wrappers. It got to be quite funny. What Chuck didn't know, was that I was handing out my phone number as a little "thank you." I was determined to build up a pipeline of visitors that like to watch hot sex in action.
