Driving around North Orange County and...

Driving around North Orange County and into the Inland Empire, I had finished up work at about 2:30 and looking to kill some time before I headed home. Since I was in the area, the original plan was to hit the TL because I hadn't been by since February and wanted to see what kind of new talent was there. But then I was tossing around thoughts that the decrease in the VIP's there have not really been confirmed by anyone and at the same time, I would have to deal with dancers who I have no knowledge of and a higher risk of getting burned by them. In the process, stoppping by the HT was more of viable option. So I shifted gears and headed down the 60 to Hacienda Blvd.

Got there at a little before 3:00 and the place was fairly occupied by PL's for a late afternoon. I was surprised. Found a seat on the west side of the building by the exit and kind of scoped the room. I saw familiar faces so I knew it would be a good day. But things didn't start off so good for me since Amanda was the first to approach. Here's how that conversation went:

Amanda: Hi, I'm Amanda. Are you waiting for anyone?
