Dateline: March 2025 Dickson, TN
Alright, dolls, spill the tea! Last week, the Dickson Library’s “it” crowd, the FOL (that’s Friends of the Library, for you non-literati), descended upon Applebee’s for their monthly birthday bash. Think power lunch, but with more bookish banter and less botox.
Sources whisper that the real drama wasn’t the half-priced apps, but a bombshell announcement from longtime member, Mick! After nearly eight years of quiet dedication, our insider reveals Mick is packing his bags and hightailing it to Texas! Seems family ties are pulling him south, to be closer to his sister. Cue the collective gasp!
While the group rallied with well-wishes and heartfelt congrats, we’re told there were definitely a few “I’m not crying, you’re crying” moments. Apparently, Mick was a beloved fixture, and his absence will leave a gaping hole in their literary circle.
But, ever the optimists, the FOL crew are already plotting Mick’s Texas takeover. They’re hoping he’ll find a new squad at the local FOL, and maybe even a bridge partner to fill his social calendar. After all, even in the Lone Star State, a good book club and a killer hand of cards are essential! Stay tuned, darlings, for updates on Mick’s Texas adventures!
