The Fun's Almost Over

Sunday, September 09, 2007

Warning, the action packed contents of my last week and a half are been squeezed into one post. It's worth it if it you can make it through ;O)

So Puerto Rican Pauly has been visiting for about a week and a half now. I pray to any god that will listen to me that I actually have some vacation time next time he comes to visit.

He flew in last Wednesday and at that point I was still working at the State Fair. Luckily he has a good number of friends in the area still and was able to find some fun stuff to do. Though, the kid needs to remember directions better while drunk so I don't go to sleep then get a 3am phone call asking where Slacker HQ is again.

Anyway, Monday rolled around and was my last day at the fair. To celebrate I met up with him at a friends house and manage to chat and drink many beers till 4 am. Work Tuesday morning was fairly painful.

Tuesday we hopped around uptown and met a friend for his official birthday as a warm up to his party on Friday. We also met up with a college friend of PR Paul's who was in town from Pittsburgh for a couple days. 2am comes far to quick sometimes... Work was again painful, but copious amounts of coffee is a good thing sometimes.

Wednesday we headed toward campus and were elated to see that our favorite old haunt, Stub and Herb's was back open again and still kept the employ of most of the good people who worked there. Even better it's now under less slumlord-esque ownership and nicely spruced up. We hopped to Sally's for a while and hung out with some friends, then headed back to Stubs where some other friends had shown up. For legal purposes we'll say that night ended at 2 even though it's possible it went a bit later than that. Work that next day actually proved basically impossible.

Thursday, we met up with another friend Murray at Gastof's. While the German beer was still flowing the good crowds were nowhere to be found. There was maybe 20 people there, even for a Thursday that was insanely dead. At least I got to chat with a pretty darn cute Sergeant in the army. Conversation with cute girls always makes a night good. Work the next day was pretty decent even if they tried to put me to sleep with several pointless and boring meetings

Friday was the friends B-day at The Independent. This place can be one hell of a crowded zoo on Fridays and Saturdays. Luckily he had reserved us a private room. Drinks were flowing well till they kicked us out. After that we went and had a post party at one of his friends houses nearby. At about 5am I could tell the host's fiance was out of steam so I nicely suggested we all depart. Thank god for being able to sleep till three the next day.

Last night we went downtown Minnapple and met up with some other college friends at Masa. It's a high end Mexican restaurant. The food was decent but really nothing special. The food was tasty, but would have been better if it was just a tad spicier. Afterward we went to Brit's and had a few drinks. Then off to the Newsroom for a beer. After that we ended up at a strip club. The reason we ended up there was in support of a guy there who was having his "non-wedding." It was supposed to be his wedding day till it was called off three months ago. I really can't think of a better reason to go to a strip club, can you? The Seville left quite a bit to be desired. It was a very nice classy place, the girls were good looking but for being a "Cabaret" the dancing was horrid. Sure, a Cabaret doesn't technically have to provide dancing, but at least entertainment. I'm no Strip Club connoisseur, haven't been to one in many years prior, but really, the girls barely tried. At least dance a little, or at the VERY least, when you're lazily leaning against that mirror, wiggle your ass to the beat. Sure, I'm a guy, seeing boobs is always mildly entertaining. Really, though, the breed of rhythmless girls they had there made it start feeling more like seeing boobs in a National Geographic show. I'm sure I'm waxing chauvinistic here, but I guess I believe if you're going to do something, do it well! Luckily two girls there, one in an FBI jumper named "Kinsey" and a red-head that danced to swing saved the day somewhat. Thank you for not completely shattering my beliefs in strippers. For the others though, maybe we need to start a movement, People for Strippers with Rhythm. Maybe, per Paulius's Rant we need to classify it Rhythmless Stripper Syndrome and have the drug companies make something for it. Either way, please save the strippers!

Anyway, yeah, we're planning on hitting The Wild Onion tonight. So, if any of you wanna come have a drink, or if the women readers want to come kick me in the nuts for being a pig, we'll be there. It's Pauly's last night in town so it should be fun! Keep slacking everyone!

Hey Slacker, responding to your comment on my blog, asking when I'm coming up to Renfest.

Sorry man... I came up a couple of weeks ago, but totally neglected to get in touch with you. For what it's worth though, it rained all day, and I was sick as a dog. I was so sick that I didn't even enjoy my one beer.

/begging for forgiveness
