My Three New Friends: Xena, Mary & Bingo Boy

In the two weeks that I've been at LMU I've made three new friends that I'd like to introduce you to:

Xena: Warrior Princess

An apparent trend that I've realized I have not been a part of, is the naming of ones car. My white Nissan Xterra has been nameless for the last year and a half which is a situation that needed to be rectified ASAP. As I talked to some of my collegues here I noticed that they were silently, and some not so silently, judging my unnamed car. So it was only appropriate that my car be named so that it could sit in the parking lot with Nitro and Miss Henrietta("She's a Lady"). Several names were tossed around the table but the winner actually came from my supervisor B. After driving around and feeling it out, I am now the proud owner of Xena: Warrior Princess. My Xterra is a warrior! She's a tough trooper , ready for anything and always fierce yet delicate and sleek like a princess...JUST LIKE ME!

Hamburger Mary

Mary, Mary, Mary-Why are you sooooooo CrAzY!!!
When I first got to LMU I heard several colleagues talk about the infamous Mary's in West Hollywood for bingo. I thought to myself, "Bingo? Do I look 75?". Well this past Wednesday I experienced something that is not intended for your typical 75 year old. Mary's sponsors drag queen bingo every Wednesday night to support a local charity and brings out Legendary Bingo to host the event. Depending on the week there is also a celebrity ball caller. Past celeb's include Ricki Lake, Paris Hilton, Ellen DeGeneres and in a month the lovely Jamie Lee Curtis. I really am making it in with the "A List".Well let me tell you-this bingo is not for the faint of heart! If you're going to go you better be ready for some profanity, some insanity and some trash throwing at winners. It's intense and so much fun so get your bingo card and daubers ready :) I love Hamburger Mary's, I love bingo and I love playing loudly!


Bingo Boy

Bingo Boy owns and operates Legendary Bingo. As much as I would love to show you a picture of him, I couldn't quite find something appropriate for your delicate eyes! Nonetheless, Bingo Boy is the third friend that I've made this week and he is quite the character. He is very well known in the LGBT community and he is fantastic.

If you're in LA and want to meet my new friends you should know that there is a strict application process to get in with my crowd. Peace!
