Soooo....a shitload of things happened after my last post, ha! Lot's of wonderful things! For example, last MAY (yikes, I'm doing a shitty job of updating this blog) we celebrated Priscilla's Bachelorette Party on the 17th-19th. We sent her off properly, doing the whole she-bang in Vegas: stayed at the Monte Carlo, went swimming (Grey Goose Swim Party), walked around, ate at Sugar Factory, played a pin-the-penis on the man game, went to Marquee Night Club, and just had one hellava time!
The crappy thing that happened was my phone's screen died as soon as we got there so, I didn't get to use my phone or Instagram the whole event but I got to live through everyone else's Instagrams so that was nice. I did take a few pictures with my trusty point and shoot, though.
As soon as we got into our hotel room, we were so excited. We changed into our bathing suits, packed up our beers in our bags and headed for the pool. But as soon as we tried to enter, the lady denied our entrance because we couldn't bring our own alcoholic drinks into the pool area (wa wa waaaahhhh). So we went back to our room and Priscilla and Sofia showed off their dance moves and jumped on the bed.
We took a limo to Sugar Factory in Paris Hotel.

This was mine and I finished it...THEY WERE HUUUUGE! I ordered a white gummy bear and it had gummy worms in it. It was delicious! Buuuttt...the stupid thing about these specialty drinks is that even though you spend $36, you don't get to keep the glass. You pay for the experience, ya'll. Maybe that dry ice was laced with something that made you high when you inhaled it so you don't feel so bad spending $36 on a drink and made you come to terms that you can't take the glass home. Why was this a big deal for me at the time? I have no clue.
Fast forward the next morning. We got up and walked to New York New York for some bomb pizza and then we came back, got our bathing suits on and headed down to the pool where Grey Goose was throwing a summer swim party thing. It was funny because before we entered the pool area, some dude came up to Girl Alex and asked if he could walk in with us (OK...doesn't sound very funny but you had to have been there). Compared to the day before, the pool area was FRICKIN' PACKED! But we made it to the wave pool and that was really fun.
We went back to the room and got dolled up again for one last night on the town.

We also played pin the penis on the man. Priscilla went last and when she shut her eyes, we pasted a cut out of Arturo's face.
This is how we all did:
After Priscilla opened up all her gifts we took off and walked to Ceasar's Palace and ate dinner
at Serendipity's.
I got so many recommendations that the Marquee was a fun club because they had different rooms with different types of music. I couldn't get on the guest list for Saturday night, though. But I just thought, maybe I can act stupid and be like, "Oh, I thought we were on the guest list for tonight." So I led us all into the Guest List line. The worst thing they could do is turn us away, right? So I was really hoping they wouldn't do that. Especially, since they moved the line to the upper level where we walked and walked until we got into another line. The whole time I was thinking, "Holy shit, if we don't get in, that would be the longest walk of shame ever." But I put on my poker face, and gave the bouncer my last name and he shook his head subtly. Then he ripped out a piece of paper, asked for my last name, how many ladies I had with me and he moved us on into the other line where they checked our IDs and we eventually got in. Yay! No walk of shame!
We only went into 2 rooms in this club and it was FRICKIN packed! I felt the only way I could dance was to act like a mime stuck in a box. The smaller room played better music (hip hop) than the main room (house) so we stayed in the smaller room and kept getting squished. Girl Alex even got her purse chain stuck on this lady's lacy dress, right on her butt cheek. So many people tried to help detach the chain while being pushed around it was nuts. Eventually some guy from the VIP booths came to the rescue and unchained the lady's dress from Alex's purse. Yay!
Fast forward June 1, 2013: this Bachelorette became a Bride!
