Quick happy hour
There was going to be a Rock Band event tonight but it got cancelled at the last moment. I was looking forward to it because Rock Band is always fun, but when I saw it was cancelled I realized I could just go home and relax tonight. That sounds like the most fun imaginable. We still had to head over to Blue Martini for a drink and maybe a bite to eat but then it’s slow sailin’ for me.
Pilipino power!
That is not a typo up there. I was asking how to spell the nationality of these people, all from the Philippines. I -really- wanted to spell it Philippino but of course that’s just ridiculous. Evidently these people are non-conformist since they way they like to spell it starts with an F not a P and there’s no double P in the middle. I was commenting that Filipinos from the Philippines was just silly and I was told that if I really wanted to do it right I could spell it with a P in front but no H following it. I give up, I’m taking their word for it. This is America, dammit, and Uhmerikans take people at their word and treat people of foreign descent with respect.
Different yet familiar faces at the Blue Martini
Matt and Manduh are in town as a surprise for Manduh’s friend Sarah who didn’t know she was coming to Vegas today when she woke up this morning. Sarah’s (borderline amazing) boyfriend, Jason, got her tickets to Vegas for her birthday. I’m not sure who all organized the surprise part of it but other friends from LA showed up as well and it is set to be quite the party. I was on my way to the Blue Martini to meet them when Molly (whom you’ve seen before) called and said she was at loose ends for the night and happened to be in Vegas so where was the party? The entire night is one of those things that could be an unmitigated disaster but I have a pretty good feeling it’s all going to be fun.
Friday at the Blue Martini
PTs has thoroughly been replace by the Blue Martini in our hearts as the Friday night happy hour place. This is also part of the group going to Mammoth next weekend and we’re all very excited about it. That’s been pretty much the only topic of conversation tonight. Is it Thursday yet?
