esmio06Well, I’m sorry I haven’t updated yall in a while. A lot has been going on. With the uber-success of the first bar, I have decided to open a second location.
We opened the Bar On the Lake what seems like an eternity ago, pun intended. Things there were always entertaining, but my dream was always to have a floating bar, so I procured a barge (don’t ask how, just remember I didn’t make it to hell for my charm). For the past few weeks we have been turning this barge into what will prove to be the happeningest hot spot on either side of the Rive Styx. For that matter on the River itself, since that is where we will be floating come our opening night this Friday.
We had a trial run opening last night. For those of you who haven’t served your time in the service industry, most restaurants and bars do a private opening that is invitation only before the big public opening.
I decided to go cheesy with the Opening and actually had Dennis DeYoung and Styx come play the opening night (yes I know they aren’t dead yet, but I pulled a few strings). So here we are launching out down the river Styx to Come Sail Away.
Everything went off without a hitch. Yah I now that makes for dull story telling, but it also makes for less grey hairs and given the choice, I prefer to experience dull stories when I’m in charge.
Anyways, flashing back a little, setting up over the past few weeks has been interesting to say the least. I guess my oldest and best customer ahs been bored off his ass because he spent just about every moment working on t4he barge with me.
As we were getting ready to open, The Man and I started talking.
“So how do you think the world is doing after these few weeks without you up there?”
“This again? I thought that you realized they don’t need me anymore.”
“That is for the standard SNAFUs, but don’t you still enjoy putting your hand in major things?”
“The few major things that I put my hand in were started rolling a century ago. Now I just get my rocks off on sheet rocking.”
“Well that is good because I sure cant do that crap. Think it will be a good night?”
“How the fuck should I know… running these places is your area, not mine.”
“What exactly is your area now that you don’t have to spread evil?”
“I just told you! Sheet rocking!”
As the confusion over the Man’s wasted talent was just taking full hold on my being, my employees began showing up. Guess I will have to ponder why the Prince of Darkness is so infatuated with plaster some other day.
