Out on the Town "B"less!

I knew I would be going it alone tonight without my other B, and that meant I had to psych myself up for what would most likely be a flood of unruly boyz to handle! The theme for the event was a "red hot" night so I selected a subtle red sequined dress and diamond jewelry with a little Judith Leiber bag and 4" heels with an open toe and black stockings.   This was an eyeliner night so I stacked on the heavy make-up and wasn't sure who that was passing through my bedroom in the mirrors on the way out!  I grabbed a little black fur to throw over my shoulders knowing that the ballroom would be chilly for my svelte frame and bare shoulders; stuffed the blackberry and bright red lipstick in the handbag and headed out the door.  There were far too few people already in attendance when I arrived to be able to make my usual entrance and I feared that would dampen the night's expectations.  The doorman opened the lobby door as I stepped out of my Mercedes handing the key to the valet.  I winked as I entered the elevator lobby and made my way up to the ballroom where the dim cocktail light always favors a girls otherwise lacking good looks!  I checked in and got my little stickers for my shopping spree at the Silent Auction tables.  I made sure that I had a few blanks as it was apparent I would run out of the pre-printed sheet they had for me.  Mani-pedis, micro-dermabrasions, shiny jeweled baubles and restaurant gift certificates were calling to me!  I was surrounded by temptations everywhere with weekends at luxury beach houses, snow skiing packages and out of town spas listed among the treasures.  The boyz were now beginning to stack up around me and little pink vodka drinks were being placed in my bright red finger tips painted to match my toes!  The buzzing in my ear was distracting me as I tried to concentrate on my shopping while fielding 20 questions from all sides!  I was easy to find in my little red sequined dress and wives were sneering in my periphery as their husbands just had to check out the B at the auction table!  The program got under way and the usual rubber chicken dinner was served to a hungry crowd.  There was a band and they were lining up to take turns spinning me on the dance floor while keeping me plied with the little vodka drinks with the wedges of lime.  Dancing partners took to the floor and the boyz began their steady flow to take turns exhibiting their dance moves, the first of their mating calls which could be heard around the room by now.  I gracefully entertained them with my dance steps, returned to the auction to collect my loot, and departed in the usual B fashion with boyz in tow!  The valet brought the car, and, along with the mirage of men surrounding me, loaded my goodies into the trunk and the back seat, and I whisked away, once again leaving salivating consorts on the curb!
