Man-Eaters

Let me set the scene (pt I):
What? 80’s Night
Where? Canal Room
When? 10:00 PM
Who? Rubix Kube, 80’s cover band
Why? Kelly Ripa's birthday venue

We were the only ones dressed up. We were under the impression that everybody dressed up (since Kelly Ripa did), but we were the only ones dressed in 80’s garb! Two of us wore leotards. Rather than feeling mortified, we embraced the extra attention we attracted. At one point, balloons fell on our heads. Alyssa grabbed one and put it in her pink leotard with the balloon tie at the location where her belly button is. She looked pregnant, minus a flashlight illuminating the belly and making it glow. The guys around us thought it was hilarious. The girls (with the guys around us) did not. Alyssa responded with, "Are you pregnant too?" after one particular girl antagonized her. We felt the need to leave shortly after.

I think we can all agree that the 80's were an epic fail
in the world of fashion.

Let me set the scene (pt II):
What? Late night snack
Where? Benches outside of The Meatball Shop
When? 4:00 AM
Who? Drunk men who felt confident
Why? Why not?

“What do you do?”
“I am a dolphin shaver. I shave dolphins.”
“And you?”
“I sell my body on the street. She also shaves me.”
Confused look.
“Bzzzz,” as Lauren motioned how she shaves me.
Said guy walked away.

In a separate conversation, Alyssa explained to a Scot how "W" is a hotel and "Dubya" is a person. He never understood.

We shamelessly sent a handful of guys walking away seemingly defeated. MAN-EATERS.

Aren't we intimidating? Even Lady Liberty thinks so.

    Me: "haha No, thanks."

  2. TEX! Great post. I am glad we are always causing a ruckus! I was at the bar in lufkin this weekend and there was a {real} pregnant girl there. I decided not to steal her thunder with a balloon ... BUT I did take out my flash light to no ones amusement. Life is just funnier with yall around!
