If you'll recall, I took over the reins of the Queefs'* monthly roundup a few days ago. Well, the only people who showed were Funny Lady and a certain lovely femme whom I met at the last roundup. Sure, I loved hanging out with them, but the whole objective there was to meet new people. That's always everybody's objective there.
Said Funny Lady, attendance was light because poly people, being heavily scheduled creatures, naturally need more lead time, and things were undeniably a bit up in the air when I took over. No problem. If I can herd my son, I can herd queers.
And Funny Lady had some exciting news for me about other (ahem) opportunities. I'll just have to keep in touch with her about those, won't I?
Oh: while I was waiting for people to show up, I got to talking with the (kinda cute, natch) barmaid at the Wildrose about its reputation for unfriendliness, which in my view is undeserved, and how it's kept some queer women away. She said what I thought she'd say: that the staff shouldn't do anything like that, at least not anymore, and if other customers give you grief, go to the staff. Right on. But what I didn't know is that the 'Rose changed hands a few years ago, and that the previous owner wasn't quite as enlightened as the current one(s?). That would explain a lot.
*Queer Female-Identified, which inevitably got acronymized to "queefs".
