Start 7pm End 4 am
220 miles 17 Uber trips , $200 ish
Many smiles, a few prayers, and I almost was a heathen.
- Kendall & Zoe had to drag me out of bed at around 4pm. I didn't get much sleep at all. Too much on my mind. Took Kendall to work. Then to the feedstore. Zoe Joy thinks she is the princess there. All the employees dote on her, and she gets to pick a bone from the bone deli. She always gets a large knuckle. Like any kid it will be gone in a day or two. Then we ran thru the car wash, no fit from the furry one today. Got Chinese food from panda crapper. ( only cause I'm lazy and they have drive thru) Even though I could have been out making money I waited for Dave to get home to get some sugars.
- First ride to Taylor Swift Concert was a 30ish guy and clearly older woman. It was his mom! She is visiting from Canada and he surprised her with tickets to show. Ahhh sweet boy. He is here working on the mega 35 construction project.
- I didn't want to hang around Arlington so back to FW. Lots of quick trips for over privileged TCU kids. Then about 9 40 headed back to Jerry World to wait.
- Took a mom and her daughter Emma (about 10 yo) home to Coppell. Emma thought me saying " Buckle up Butter cup was funny". She passed out half way home.
- Then zoomed back. Picked up Ryan on a corner, he was clearly drunk. He was having a bit of bad night. He and his girl had a tif at the concert and then he lost her somehow. Either way I was able to find her by playing the what's around you game. Got them back to hotel both happy again sort of.
- Back over to stadium had a pick up at new Texas Live complex. Text her she is at rear area where curve is and lots of cars. I pull there. Some more texts back forth. She is actually at the front entrance under the sign. I pull up actually beside the sign. More texts because she cannot find me right under her nose. I get to point where I have two choices A. I get out and find her, throat punch her dumb butt, then drag her to the car or B. I just cancel her ride and move on. Not wanting to go to jail I chose B.
- I decided to head to FW and work bars. ... after a QT break. A few drunk rides. I get to a call 5 drunk girls. One is completely non functional can't talk or walk, the others are barely able to help. They are only going 5 blocks but some guys were being very nasty harassing them. So I pick them up. They hang the very drunk out window, she dry heaves the entire way. I drop them off and my next hops in. I decide it is wise to call for medical check for drunk girl. They asked if I was waiting, nope I'm working. They knew where to go and there were others around. Drop off other passengers.
- Go back to W 7th to double check for lost lambs. Take the cutest bartender home. He is a big guy named Tommy. I wanted to ask if he had a little coat ... LOL.
- My last ride is Jen. I pick her up at her friends more upscale bar on Magnolia. She is a bit trashed but hanging in there. I could tell she wanted to talk. She had a longer ride to Kennedale. Her husband's best friends wife died suddenly and the funeral is later today. The lady was 40 with 4 boys 4 to 14. She was out letting go a bit before having to be strong today. We had a long chat about how quickly life changes, how we are not really in charge, God's plan. We prayed and hugged then I made sure she made it in - she was wobbly and her house is on a hill.
Well that was today's fun. I will need to start extra earlier tomorrow to work the game. Then round two of Taylor Swift and Josh Turner at Billy Bob's ... man he can sing.
Love and Blessings
Traci.
