Miss Conception (10/25)

Oh man! I think I may have spent most of that Saturday sleeping the day away although I did make it out of bed to a deli in the hotel for a sandwich. We went to Kerri's aunt's room again that night to meet up with the gang before heading to yet another surprise event...well not for us, but perhaps for April.

We all took cabs to our destination and after an argument with the cab driver as to who the Caroline was in the song 'Sweet Caroline', I was right by the way, we arrived at Lucky Chang's for a little dinner theatre. And by dinner theatre, I mean a Drag Cabaret show. Shockingly enough, it was my very first drag show and oh my gosh! Hysterical!

It was so 'rude, crude, and socially unacceptable', but not to me of course! I enjoyed every single minute of it! My favorite queen was the host, Miss Conception. She was just so stinking funny! Here is the before and after of her during her 'Rocky Horror Picture Show' performance...


During the show, we treated ourselves to a Chinese buffet and some really funny drink names, that are too explicit to list here. So yes, I did go to a show in Vegas...but it wasn't a 'real' show that you might have expected...however, this was about as close as we could get to Cher without spending a fortune :)!



After the drag show, we returned to New York New York to go to the Nine Fine Irishman again to basically do what we did the night before.


Only this time, new strangers were met, one with this HORRIFIC tattoo...

I swear I cannot make this up people...he will have this on his side for the rest of his life. I am sure his parents are proud. I capture moments like this just for your viewing pleasure.


Anyway, Elizabeth and I yet again ventured from the Irish Pub to the casinos, where we tried getting our pictures taken with the ladies below, but they wouldn't let us without tipping them...which made Elizabeth ask them if the economy too was hurting their income...



Needless to say, we did not pay them to get our picture taken with them, but I wanted the moment to live on, just to prove that the economy really is affecting all of us...even those with jobs like dressing up in your old dance costume for patrons in Vegas...ha! I cannot judge and may consider the opportunity if things keep going the way they are going...ha again!

We got a margarita for the road and headed to Elizabeth's lucky spot where she won 300 bones at the Roulette table the last time she was there. No such luck this time, but I had some luck in finding some cute Irish or Scottish boys (Forgive me...I cannot remember...and I am not trying to insult either) that bought me beers while Elizabeth was at the Roulette table.

I particularly loved the one on the right...but I particularly loved their accents the most! They were a lot of fun and left to go to the 'discotech', and since that wasn't really our scene, we headed back to the hotel at the wee hours of 2:00 AM.
