On The Road Again


What I spoke of in the last post, about having to move the day I go on vacation to suit the coaew? Still hasn’t been decided. When I tell Sweety that I’m going on the day that I originally planned on he gets all grouchy and tells me I need to let go of the hate. Whatever. Someone has to hold the hate. May as well be me.

Last Wednesday we went to Reno and then on to Las Vegas on Friday. Sweety is in a bowling tournament in Reno but we flew into Vegas because the flights were cheaper and we had to rent a car anyway. And we got our rooms in Vegas super cheap ($1 for one night and $15 for the other! We stayed at the Sahara. Some of the reviews were bad but I thought it was just fine for a buck. There were no bugs, mold or crunchy stuff in my bed.).

Thursday morning we got up and played some dollar Blackjack. I played for almost an hour and lost $8. And 4 of that tipped the dealer and waitress. An okay way to spend an hour. :)

Then we went to the little bar there that had $1 shots and hot dogs. Suwheet bebby hayzeus. I got tore up from the floor up. The shots were in these tiny little glasses and I laughed when I saw them. But then it tasted like paint thinner and bleached my teeth while getting me drunk.

Breakfast

I also had an epiphany while drinking – you know how Tiny Dog likes to drink beer but we don’t let her have it since it might kill her and all? O’Doul’s. I’m gonna give that bitch some unalcoholic beer the next time we’re drinking and see if she drinks it. If she does NOT drink it then that means she really is drinking for the alcohol and is smarter than I give her credit for. And if she does drink it then I’ve found a new way to keep The Queen happy.

After filling up on dollar shots and hotdogs we moseyed over to the Nascar Cafe. Where they have a 6 pound burrito. A friend and I thought it would be a good idea to give it a go. I truly believed I could eat a 6 pound burrito. I was sadly mistaken as was he. They make you eat at a special table at the front of the restaurant. People were stopping to take photos and talk to us. I don’t even like people to look at me while eating so it was hard to stuff my face while people took photos.

Not hungry.

After the 90 minutes was up and we hadn’t finished, they gave us pink t-shirts that said “Weenie” on the front and took our photo for the wall of shame. Then I power puked and passed out. A passerby saw my plate of burrito butts (I cut off then ends to eat them last & had put them on a separate plate) and asked if she could have them. I’m glad that someone was able to truly enjoy the burrito.

I guess if you’re gonna eat something the size of a baby, it shouldn’t be a spur of the moment decision. You need to train for that shit.

    Next time you go to Vegas, it is required that I go with you. The end.

  2. I don’t like people to watch me eat either. Sounds like a fun trip, but what about the bowling? How did Sweety do? Good lord, a six pound burrito? Have you ever tried that big ol steak in Amarillo? It is a 64 oz. T bone and you have to eat it all including the fat. No, I have not tried it. We just drive by the place when we go to Colorado.

    I chuckled at the shots that also whitened your teeth!

    Sweety did okay bowling. I don’t think he’ll know for a few weeks how he placed.

    I’ve heard of that steak! I wouldn’t even try that. All steak fat gets trimmed off for a doggy bag!

    A six pound burrito? Holy smokes. I am sure eating that could heat at least three houses with natural gas for the entire winter!
    Love the shirt! – G

    I’m kinda glad I yakked the burrito up cos I’m sure it would have been more unpleasant any other way.

    I plan on wearing that shirt til it falls apart. :)

  4. I’m glad you had fun. I’d love to get to Vegas or Reno sometime. And that shirt with the baby on it? Awesome!

    We’re having a large time & going home tomorrow. I’ll admit that I’m really ready to sleep in my own bed, despite all the fun.

  5. “eat something the size of a baby” I thought you said “eat something like a baby”…

    Chickie said:

    Nah, I don’t blog about my baby eating. I know some people really frown on that shit.

    It sounds like those Shots sort of helped bring up that 6 pound Burrito…! LOL. LOVE the T-Shirt. I want one that says “weenie”, too……Get Home afe, my dears.

    Chickie said:

    I was really glad that the burrito came back up. I can’t imagine how rotten I’d have felt later with it sitting in my gut.

    Heh, the “weenie” shirt certainly gets some second looks!

    After eating that much burrito they should of given you a T-shirt that said “keep away form open flame!”

    Chickie said:

    I was staying away from open flames anyway. All that alcohol saturation.

  9. Ha Ha Ha I love love love it! The thought of a 6 lb burrito makes me feel slightly queasy though. Sometime I hope to get to Reno or Vegas. In the meantime I live vicariously through you

  10. I wouldn’t even try a 6 pound burrito. I know the few times I’ve had a 2-pound steak, I was still processing for days.

    P.S. I can’t believe that you stayed in Vegas for $16. I know that they had great deals because of the casinos and the economy; but that is unreal.

    I LOVE THAT SHIRT!!!!!!!!!! I almost bought it for my husband, but he hasn’t seen The Hangover yet so all humor would have been lost on him.
    I saw that burrito challenge on Man vs. Food…I don’t even think HE could finish it. Kudos for trying though!!!
