I'm a VIP, baby.
There is a concert tour happening this summer that I was so excited about that when I learned of its stop at A Casino Near Me, I had to change my pants. Twice. It is: No Doubt, back together, with Paramore opening. *swoon*
I managed to pull together 12 tickets in the same row so that I could bring my roommates, half my coworkers, my two favorite people in the whole world, and two of my midgets and rock the f*** out. It was a slow, trickling process, getting 12 people in the same place at the same time, so the early of us gambled for a little while to "earn" some free drinks on the floor. I lost $6 and Joe got his "free beer" (see below) and then by the time the show was starting we were all finally in some stage of eating dinner at the Summer Shack. The majority of us ate corn dogs. They were fast and we'd killed our time before the show pretty effectively...
After dinner, I put my camera in the room because I didn't want to risk having my baby taken away. So the next picture I have is this - a bunch of us hanging out in the hotel room, waiting for our ear drums to stop bleeding. Well, actually is the reflection of us hanging out in the hotel room, with another branch of the building through the window. Awesome photo. Patting myself on the back. The concert? Everything I hoped it would be. Everyone around me was hoping through the whole show that I wouldn't inadvertently punch one of them in the face in my crazed, surprisingly uncoordinated hopping around screaming in my seat.After the show, some of us went to do more gambling damage, some of us went for a walk in the woods, some of us went home because we are under the age of 15, some of us went to a bar 10 minutes before last call and were asked to leave with drinks in hand and unpaid tab, and some of us just disappeared back to the hotel rooms. Mariana won $650 on her first time at a casino, ever. We ordered room service around 3 am after a rousing game of "The Price Is Right" on the room service menu. You can't see from the tableset, but there were pints of Ben & Jerry's, as well.I throw one heck of a party...
