This month’s Bingo was Halloween themed! So was the sunrise that morning apparently. I went as Mrs. Incredible, and my newish friend Jess borrowed my skeleton “costume”, which was great because she’s a physical therapist.
Jess I met at one of the book clubs, and I basically pulled a “YOU’RE MY FRIEND REGARDLESS OF YOUR OPINION” on her, which I semi-apologize for basically forcing her to be friends with me, but I think it’s working out so far. She doesn’t have kids yet, so it makes socializing a bit easier. She’s also a Navy wife, her husband is a SWO (Surface Warfare Officer). She lives close by. It’s destiny, really.
At Bingo we collected food donations for the Thanksgiving food drive to provide food for military families in need of extra support. I wish we took a picture of the table because it was full and that made my heart warm. I also neglected taking any pictures of us actually playing bingo, but we did! Jess won wine.
The whole night was hilarious, and our table was particularly rowdy. At my table there were two Saras, and at one point they went to high five each other for having that name, and out of pure instinct I interrupted the high five by grabbing the arm of one of them next to me. I do not know what overcame me and I apologized and pray I didn’t scare her away (this was only one of multiple things that happened this night that could’ve). She did not seem to have been bothered by the interaction thankfully! The MC wives are such characters! Gotta have fun together to get through this life.
