That late Saturday afternoon, the bus arrived at my place for picking me up.  The bus was taking me to Easter Seals where the deaf club is held and going to play Fingo game.  When the bus arrived at Easter Seals, I noticed, wow, so many vehicles were full crowded in the parking lot.  I don't know what's going on in there until I learned that people from out of town were having an interpreting training workshop when I went inside.  We were waiting for that group to get out of the room when the training is finished.  It's late.  Finally, the group of interpreting trainees was about leaving.  Thank goodness.  The deaf club officials were in a hurry to set up everything in the room.  We, as members and non-members, were waiting outside the room but automatic doors in the lobby room made us so cold as those kept opening continously.  Many other people kept coming in for attending and playing the game.  The room was so full crowded but I don't know how many people in there.  I lost a count.  When my deaf friend, Amy, came in with her hubby Chuck and deaf friend, Victoria, I paid her for a ticket to DHHS Grand Valentine Dinner party on Feb. 11th.  I asked a deaf friend to bring me a coffee that I paid.  I had a coffee that woke me up immediately.    It worked for me.  LOL!  Several minutes later, we started playing the game.  I had a slice of birthday cake that tastes okay.  It's probably from Winn-Dixie, a supermarket.  A hearing ASL student said the cake would be tasting better at Publix instead of Winn-Dixie.  She's right.  Later on, Dad came in to pick me up but the game took so long.  It was late.  I was waiting for the game to be finished.  I didn't win the game and the door prize that night but I am okay.  Then finally, I went home right away.
