Smack that

Once again Akon - it's like you're reading my mind!

My last weekend was spent in Dallas. Yep - that's right... again. Only this time it was our last weekend. It had to be. My honey is either on his way or waiting to board a plane to Hawaii as we speak. Or rather, as I type.

And... I'm okay.

I'm also full of shit, but that's neither here nor there.

But, we had a funny moment this weekend and I wanted to share.

Friday night we were hanging out with friends at this bar in Dallas. It's his "Cheers" if you will. You know, the place where everyone knows your (his) name. And no, my honey is NOT Cliff or Norm. He might be more a Frazier, actually. But I digress.

We're at the bar and I sit down at the corner of the bar, next to my friend Erin and another friend of my honey's. He was standing catercorner (sp?) to me and his friend.

About 10-15 minutes after I was settled in my bar stool one of my friends leaned over and said, "You know where you're sitting, right?" and pointed above my head.

Seems I had chosen the seat under the mistletoe. Well, I chuckled and said, "That means you have to kiss me." And I turned my cheek for my smooch. This worked on a couple of our friends - it was all very cute/innocent. That is until some guy (a complete stranger - and not unattractive) came up to me and tapped me on the shoulder. I turned around and said hello. He pointed up to the mistletoe and said "It is tradition." I shrugged. Seems I'd been caught. So I took it very good-naturedly, smiled and said "You're right." So I leaned over to give this guy a kiss on the cheek, more like a smack actually and just as I was about to, he turned his face and I ended up kissing the side of his mouth/lips. It happened with this very loud "mwah!". At which point my honey stopped watching basketball highlights on the big screen next to us and ended up catching the whole thing just as I was laughing at the situation and as the guy walked away to his table. Which BTW was about 2 feet from my chair. He said "hey!?!" then proceeded to "mark his territory" by giving me the deepest, most obnoxiously PDA kiss in history. It was great! And very very funny.

My favorite part was when a friend of ours turned to me, laughing and said "That was hilarious! First there's this very loud SMACK and then he (my honey) just whipped his head around and was like 'WHAT THE HELL?'!"

The whole thing was really very innocent but still damn funny. I only wish y'all had been there.
