Sometimes I love those “Didn’t see that coming” situations. Especially when you realize that you can have a lot of fun with them. Take my current place of employment for example…. I knew when I started that my ex-husbands current girlfriend was the manager, after all, that’s how I got the job….but he and I are ancient history from the last millennium. And, I knew that the singer was his 4th ex-wife, so nothing surprising there…but what I didn’t see coming was just how much fun could be had out of the situation.
So now, the manager is gone. That leaves number 2 and 4, and now I am behind the bar, which is in the lounge where the singer is stationed.
On Friday night, in between songs, I shouted over to Deb, the singer, that I was gonna explain to these three people, who were sitting at the bar, how we were, in some sort of pseudo manner related. She immediately points to the table in front her, where some of her friends were sitting, and tells them, “You’ve gotta hear this story!”
Other tables hear this exchange, turn their heads and tune in….So I tell them the sister-in-law theory I mentioned in another blog….to recap: “Since we were both married to the same man (at different times) does that make us sisters-in-law?”
Everyone ponders this for a moment, (since this is not your average, everyday situation) and then the whole room laughs together, and laughter is a good thing.
