Intimidated by the blue haired ladies

Big Bird, Double V, Top & Bottom, Little Diamond, Picture Frame and B & O -- these terms mean nothing to me... yet. I'm gonna learn all about them tonight. I'm going to a "Bingo for the Cure" night with my friends, Amy and Vicki. Andi is going too. We've been reading the emails all week that Amy has sent us regarding Bingo Etiquette and I'm here to tell ya....I feel a butt whippin' comin' on and I don't mean in Bingo.

I'm talking more about if I talk too loud, yell Bingo at the wrong time, or sit in someone's lucky chair. I won't be able to sit by Andi, since together we don't possess the ability to pipe down immediately at any time....which is what the rules say to do when the caller gets ready.

I have my tape to secure my cards on the table, my yellow marker to highlight any daubable squares. I know to read only the numbers on the right of the column, instead of the entire number. I'm just hoping I don't earn the reputation of a sleeper -- someone who calls Bingo to late to claim their prize.

I'll let you know how much I lose for the cure.
