Hellos from sunny and windy Las Vegas! We’re here after driving much of the night to celebrate Mr. W’s mother’s birthday.
So far, I woke up, showered, had breakfast, and we’re trying to decide what show to go to tonite (to treat the birthday girl). Mama Mia? Forever Plaid? Some topless revue with boas and feathers? Speaking of which, we drove by “Cheetah” on the freeway and I’d never noticed it before Bat and Flat Coke suggested we meet up there one day. I guess now I know where it is. If I ever get a strip tease routine down, I’ll let you guys know.
And speaking of that and Christina Aguilera, she’s here this weekend for a performance. What a koinkidink. We were just talking about her on my blog and here she is.
Friday evening, Mr. W and I met up with Vanessa and another girl friend for Korean tofu (soon tofu). Food was good, I had raw crab for the first time, we had fun chatting about donkey punches and felching and safe words (I said “Armageddon” would be problematic as a safe word cuz it’s hard to say with your mouth full), and then one of the restaurant workers came to our table to kick us out, saying there were customers waiting! What the heck, how rude? It wasn’t like we were at one of 2 available tables, everyone waits, we’ve always waited, and those people there had only been there for like 2 minutes. I don’t think I’m going back to that restaurant; there are other soon tofu to be had.
First of all you know I’m green with jealousy that you are in Vegas AGAIN! I’m glad you know where Cheetah’s is now…we’ll meet you there next time. lol
That’s so funny Christina Aguilera is in Vegas–wonder if she’s got on her buttless chaps?
That was very rude to be asked to leave the restaurant. What was said about donkey punches?
haha, donkey punch! i had to learn it from a bunch of guys at dinner at the house. if you remember, the house is very small, intimate restaurant where everyone could hear everyone else’s conversation. i am surprised they didnt ask us to leave.
I can’t wait to go out to dinner with you and talk about Donkey Punches, FL’s and felching… among many other (I’m sure) interesting topics… we could refuse to leave the restaurant citing discrimination against appalling conversationalists.
Better yet.. let’s save that conversation for a cruise ship dinner.. where are they going to ask us to go???? hahahahaha
Flat Coke – you know what’s funny? When we passed Cheetah’s going there, I noted it in my head but didn’t say anything. Then we passed by it going the other way the next day with Mr. W’s brother and their parents in the car and the bro pointed out Cheetah. Nothing much was said about donkey punches, just what they were and the other girl was surprised.
Diana – It’s okay, The House, being a Chinese restaurant, probably has SOME non-English speaking patrons and staff so maybe not everyone understood the conversation. Altho now you make me wonder whether WE were asked to leave the tofu joint because of the conversation and they just made it seem like it was due to the 2 customers waiting by the door.
Jordan – I know, I’m so interesting to dine with. I say the most appropriate things at the dinner table. When’s our next cruise? I think you should fly down and take a cruise out of Long Beach.
fly down? you’re farther north than me… aren’t you? or are you straight west of me?
Friday was a lot of fun! Now I know of another place by my house to go visit. I am going to ask my Mom for some recipes and cook for you guys. Maybe when my roommate moves out, I’ll have all of you over 🙂
Jordan – I meant it in the Price is Right “Come oooooon down!” way.
Vanessa – Cool! Maybe we can potluck or do a round robin thing!
What’s round robin?
