I was so well behaved this weekend until Sunday... The Nice Queen and I were dedicated to being detoxifyingly healthy , going to the Korean Spa to get our bodies steamed and our souls scrubbed by surly women in black underwear but then...THE SUN CAME OUT. Foiled everything. We, er, went to the pool at the Viceroy instead and played human solar panels for a few hours, while splashing around in a couple of drinks. We could have stopped there. We should have stopped there. Instead, we stopped at Lula Mexicana where we triangulated with ChiChi for Sunday Happy Hour. I know I ordered at least 4 glasses of Chard, but I am not sure how many ended up getting knocked over ( thanks goodness I was still wearing my bikini!). Lula was kinda packed with like-minded Sunday Sippers being waited on by some of the cutest cheeriest staff- evidentially- they love drunk people here!!! Atop the bar in a giant glossy glass container, Temptation presented itself in a new form: Strawberry-infused tequila. According to the adorable man who was alternately bringing us drinks and mopping them up- it wasn't ready ye t “Come back on Tuesday" ( Really, you want us back here?) but since Chi would be gone to Milano...he snuck us out a few berries to suck on. Incrediblé. So today is Tuesday….anyone want to guess where I’m headed?
Due to the "economy" (snore) I have watched almost all of my friends either lose their jobs, hang on to the job they have/hate with all ten fingers and toes, or launch into a new adventure. We may all be poor, but what we do still love is a cold drink, warm conversation, a cute bartender and a little something to snack on. Here's to us, the economically disabled but the fun enabled.
