ASPEN: "Please God let my car start. Part V
beep beep beep beep beep beep. Radio alarm going off. Then I hear this dorky DJ's voice.
Hello Aspen. It is 6am time to start the day. That light r**n last night turned to snow in the upper elevations. Welcome to another beautiful day in paradise
STFU. My head hurts. I've only had 2 hrs of sleep and for the life of me I cannot remember the girls name lying in bed next to me. But I do remember what we did.
I didn't really have the time for chit chat. I was hungry, hung over, and was about to go work construction. Check that, go try to find a job working construction. So I kissed the young woman on the cheek, and got her up,dressed, then drove her to her home. Her home I later found out was a bed she rented in this guys townhome basement at the edge of town just before the big zig zag in the road leading out of the west end. The guy rented like 10 beds out to all these girls and took pictures/movies of them without them knowing. He sold them in the back of hustler mag it was discovered like 3 years later.
Before she got out of the car I got these really strange uncomfortable vibes from her. So I asked her.
Me: Umm is everything ok?
Girl: Not really.
Me: What's wrong?
Girl: Don't take this a bad way. It was alot of fun. I would really like to do that again with you sometime on a casual basis. I don't want a boyfriend. It was just about the sex.
Me: damn. And here I was getting ready to take the wrapping from my pack of Marlboro's to make an engagement ring for you, then get down on bending knee.
At that moment I wondered if I was going to get the slap slap on the face, you friggen muddaf**ker from her, or she was going to crack up. Luckily she started laughing.
Girl: So next Thurday. Same time then will be ok with you.
Me: Sure, I just need to remember to buy some more nodoz. This altitude marathon sex is draining.
Girl: Ya we all go through it to start with. You will be ok. Where are you going now?
Me: To get something to eat, and then try to find a construction job across from the Airport.
Girl: You will. They pay in cash too. And the Hickory House is just out the driveway to the left. Great food there, and most of the construction guys eat breakfast there.
So I thanked her. She slipped me the tongue one last time and giggled as she walked away. Then I noticed that her white panties with little red strawberries were laying in the passenger seat. I guess she was purposefully leaving something behind so she could come visit soon.
So off to the Hickory House I go. Now if you've never been to the Hickory House in Aspen. It is a must visit. Killer food, killer food, killer food. My two favorite place's to eat in Aspen to this day is the Hickory House, and Little Annies (friday night BBQ country style ribs. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm). Unfortunately Little Annies, Cooper St Pier, and the Red Onion are all closing their doors at the end of the 2006 season for more condos.
So I wait at the door. And it seems like every construction worker in town was in there. But there were not any open tables. Finally this waitress comes up and asks what I want.
Waitress: Are you lost?
Me: No just really hungry. No tables are open though. How long do you think the wait will be?
Waitress: That's no problem. Just pick up an empty chair at any table. We're really informal here. Everybody does it.
So I'm like way cool. I've found heaven. So I see there is one chair open at this 4top. And I grabbed it. I got the biggest breakfasts they had. Pancakes, eggs, sausage, hashbrowns, wheat toast. And coffee. Lot's of coffee.
So I'm sitting there making small talk with the construction guys that I poached this chair from. They all worked for Star Construction. The top guy and two of his supervisors Al (head guy), Kevin, and Bob were sitting at my, well their table. I told them that I was looking for a general laborer position untill the mtn opens. I was in the right place at the right time luckily.
Al: Well it just so happens we need someone just like that. I pay $8 and hour. Do you have a hammer?
Me: I'll take it, and yes I have a hammer.
So I took my stanley hammer out of my belt loop and put it on the table. They explained what was needed of me. And that I would be working in town on this building that was going to hold 6 shops.
It was a sweet deal. I had to bust my asp cleaning up after all the subcontractors, but everybody left me alone because I got more work done all by myself in one day, than what the other 3 day laborers did in a week that just quit.
I ended up being paired up with another day laborer named Chris that was working for a heating duct company from Grand Junction. I was helping him clean up all the tin/insulation laying around, and hauling in new heavy ass'd duct work from their truck. And it was back breaking work. I couldn't wait for lunch to come. With this altitude I felt like I was starving to death and had worked off that huge breakfast I had. So the lunch break came and the other day laborer Chris asked me to join him.
Chris: Hey I'm going to lunch. My sister has this Mexican carry out place. It's just up the alley.
Me: Ya I'm in. I would love a big ass burito right now
So we head there. I was introduced to his oldest sister that owned the place, and their youngest brother who was basically incharge of opening beer bottles of XXX
His sister would not let me pay for the food. Chris and I sat down and started chowing down. That's when I first saw her. This tall 5'9" very athletic hot looking blonde just walked through the door and as it turned out into my life. She had on this loose shirt with black tights on. And the body was kicking.
Me: Hey Chris. Check out the perfect heart shaped asp on the blonde that just walked in.
Chris: Yah nice. But it's my sister
fukk, fukk, fukk. TJ you dumbnuts
This chant was beating my mind to death inside. I knew I screwed the pooch on this one. No way will I ever get a date with this hottie now. And worse no more free meals at his sister's restuarant, could also be part of the punishment of my mistimed remark.
Me: Um sorry man. I shouldn't have said that.
Chris: Don't worry. Everybody thinks Kat is hot. But they can't catch her. She works at a beauty shop and teaches aerobics at the health club up the road. Would you like to meet her. Besides it will be funny watching her shoot you down just like every other guy in here.
So of course I said I wanted to meet her. And of course he is sitting me up for the kill while he was talking to her. I was doomed for sure. He waved me over to say hello. I felt like that 9th grade kid that finally got up the nerve to walk across the lunchroom to ask out that senior girl he has a crush on out on a date. All the local guys eyes were on me. Waiting for me to be put down in my prime by this striking woman just like each of them had been. The dark cloud of "foot in mouth" dating doom was at my doorstep.
So I walked over to the counter. Chris introduced me. You could cut the tension with a knife. Every guy in there was watching me. I could swear that dark cloud above my head was making a tornado at that moment. What could I do, but to just accept my fate like every other guy in here.
Chris: Hey Kat. This is TJ. He thinks you got a smoking hot ass in those black tights.
Me: Hi (gulp). Nice to meet you. And I didn't say that you had a smoking hot asp. I said you had a perfect heart shaped asp in those tights.
tic tic tic tic
It felt like time had stopped. You could have read "War and Peace" it was so bad. All the noise in the place ceesed. You could hear a pin drop. All eyes were on me. Waiting to see how I would be dealt my fate.
Kat: Hi I'm Kat. Turn around.
Me: Uh uh uh. Turn around?
Cat: Yes turn around. You saw my asp and gave your opinion, so now I get to see your ass and give my opinion. Now turn around.
I could hear taps being played in the background. My death was at hand, or so I thought.
Cat: Well now. Seems you have a smoking hot asp yourself. We are going to the Paradise tonight to watch Bobby Mason's band. Would you like to join us?
A sigh of relief went across my face. Of course I accepted. And the look on all the guys faces having lunch in there was priceless. They all had been shot down by Kat before. But I rose to the top and had a date with her. I was a God in that place during my hour lunch break.
Now I just had to watch the time tic by untill later that night Untill my date with dream girl. And so began my relationship with the blonde girlfriend.
