Wednesday, Wednesday

Arrive to empty tables, silence. Then M and I begin to enter songs. I decide to mainly "suicide" the night. Slowly, other people begin to show up. M keeps asking me what has changed, apparently I have an "aura" about me. He is on high flirt mode. He notices when I am not there. Tells me things that lets me know he is getting attached in some way or another.
R joins us as does his friend J (yet another J). T gives me "eyebrows" from one table over, then comes over and asks if I am going to sing, R jumps in with a reply as he put in a song for me. M keeps touching my hair, saying various flirtatious things and asking me out. J and R get in an inappropriate tangent - I give J a look, he tells me R started it. R is feisty this evening.
M buys me a beer and we all continue singing. Wanted my J to venture out, but he has work in the morning. Thought my family would be coming, but they did not.
R momentarily leaves my table, goes to E's table where her kids were drawing before they left, comes back, "here I drew this for you," setting a small, crayon drawing of an alligator down.
Karaoke ends. R invites me to his house to listen to tracks he has made, he would like someone to write lyrics for him. I would love to write lyrics. He would like to get a cd made this year, perhaps play at the fair. I listen to a couple of songs, he pours us whiskey, I exit.
