Lot Lizards

Just to tie up some loose ends here. Kathy, as of this past weekend,

is in New York, hopefully in wedded bliss. She plans to be back in

the area later on this month to get her last things and paychecks -

anyone betting that she may not leave again if she does? But that

is cruel on my part, to be such a skeptic when it comes to Kathy,

but her track record leaves alot to be desired. That brings us to

her ex-roomie in the big house, Annie. She finally became a free

woman last week, and has called the restaurant twice to ensure

that she can come back to work in a couple of weeks once she has

her life back on a somewhat normal track. Changing streams, Lola

has left town for now, as her summer job began over the weekend.
She was able to 'educate' me last week, introducing to a phrase I

had never heard - Lot Lizard. I had never heard it before, and

while it did sound sleazy, I never imagined how much! Apparently

a lot lizard is a working girl who frequents large truck stops on

the interstates. Seems that a gal from Lola's hometown has been

making waves with her choice of livelihood. Apparently she had

to be rescued from 2 different truckstops, one in Tennessee, the

other in Maryland, where she had been stranded. As Lola

explained it to me, a lot lizard picks up a trucker, gets out at the

next big truckstop, whereupon she picks up another trucker who

is going the opposite way, back where she came from. Sadly, the

hometown lot lizard gal was unable to find a client to return home

with twice in the last week, hence the calls to be rescued. Guess

those high gas prices are hurting all kinds of businesses!
