First words spoken this morning:
Louise: Uuuggghhh I don’t want to go to woooork!
Thelma: Uhhh yeah, this blows…
If it weren’t for us having so much fun last night, we’d be super pissed off about Monday today. For the first time since I can remember, we actually did stuff on a Sunday. We were pretty booked, to be honest.
The day started with a trip downtown to the Physician’s Cookin’ (not Cokin’) Roundup. Manny went with us and we ate lots of chili. I never found the wild game chili, but the white chili was sooooo good! We also tried the first place winning chili. It was a traditional chili except made with turkey. I’m not sure why it won first place. It wasn’t even as good as Wendy’s chili. But, whatever. Benny played which was a huge surprise and made the day even better! Of course we had to go to the stage to say hi. Lo dared me to request “Long Black Veil” on a cocktail napkin (if you didn’t know, I request that song on a bar nap every time Ben plays at the 7), so I did. Good times!
Afterward the three of us argued back and fourth for a while about whether or not we were going out east to get ice cream. I had a rice krispies treat from the cookin’ roundup so I was good to go, but I joined in on the ice cream debate anyway :). We ended up just going home and relaxing before out next event: A very special bday party!
Around 7:15-ish we arrived at Sinclair’s, fashionably late, per usual. We joined the Bday Boy ( we’ll come up with a for real blog name later) and his bday entourage (a.k.a. all of Lo’s coworkers) outside on the patio for some cocktails. We all had a great time, and then decided to continue the birthday fun at Joe’s. Last night was absolutely the best Sunday night, and quite possibly the best night period, we’ve had at Joe’s ever. We walked in a little later than everyone else (we had to make a pit stop at the house for some food) and took our places at the bar. The pool table side was completely empty but the bar side was filled – I’m talking every seat – with awesome. At one point I looked down either side of the bar and said to Lo, “There is not one person in here I don’t know and like!” It was seriously the ideal layout. TCO, Bunny, Dragnet, the Bday Boy, and several other peeps (who also need blog names now) were all there. Not only that but Tubbs had Casey Kasem’s Top 40 from 1983 playing! Who doesn’t LOVE the ‘80s?! Being slightly younger than everyone, little T didn’t quite get some of the references. Everyone got a good laugh out of that. Who knew that three-year gap was so big?! Anyway Bubbles, who will soon be our new bartender (this is wonderful news for us although we’ll miss the heck outta Tubbs), dubbed Sundays ‘80s Night! Heck yeah! At one point I made 20 bucks just for showing a little leg. At first I was somewhat apprehensive about accepting the cash gift because I kinda felt like a cheap hooker (except not as trashy-looking because we were sporting our cutest polos/polo dresses last night). But then Lo, a.k.a. The Voice of Reason, said “Just think of it as he just paid your next tab.” Sold! I gratefully accepted the 20 bucks.
Anyway, the fun of last night kicked the rest of the weekend’s ass, so today sucks a teensy bit less than most Mondays. So far anyway..,

The most ridiculous thing you’ve ever seen
Lo and I are looking to give our wardrobes a little face-lift. Lo came across this today in her research, which is EXACTLY what we’re looking for. A few of our top picks:
1. The Couch Dress
This is what started the whole thing. This item of clothing is not only super stylish but is multipurpose too! You get a dress AND a blanket. It’s a 2fer! It also reminds us a little of the Snuggie T received for Christmas. T-Lo email conversation:
Lo (1:59 PM): Wtf??? I mean...what purpose does that even serve???
T (2:00 PM): No clue. And couldn't they have found a more attractive woman to sell that ad? I mean, my GOD she's ugly!
2. Unisex Snap Trainer
For all those intense three-legged track races! And it only costs $29!!! I mean, who DOESN’T need a pair of thes
e every once in a while? T-Lo email conversation:
T (2:20 PM): I'd totally wear those out with you! haha can you imagine how many times we'd fall if we wore those out one night?
Lo (2:21 PM): My falling compounded by your falling = just serve us our fucking drinks on the floor please!
And to top off our list of favorite abstract (though not intentionally so) outfits, we have selected the clover wind breaker to join the elite rankings of our wardrobes:
3. Shamrocker Green Triplejacket
The picture pretty much says it all. If you aren’t either laughing hysterically or at least fighting laughter at your desk (or wherever you are) right now, there’s something wrong with you. Oh, and Manny, you ARE the third clover leaf…
There are many more couture styles to choose from. We invite you to explore the site and tell us which item(s) you’d want in YOUR wardrobe.
That is all.

Genius
Thelma hit an all time high on the genius scale today. Email to Lo (Today, 1:27 PM):
“So, today during my lunch break I ran by the house before running a few errands. Since our house has been looking somewhat frat-tastic lately I decided to do a bit of straightening up. So I crammed the rest of the dirty dishes in the dishwasher and decided to go ahead and run a load. Well, as I was pouring the detergent into the little detergent holder thingy, I noticed the bottle of detergent was almost empty. There wasn't enough to fill the detergent holder thingy, but since we were able to cram SOOO many dishes in there, I felt that the dishes wouldn't be thoroughly cleaned if I didn't fill that detergent holder thingy to its full capacity (there was only enough detergent to fill it up about 2/3 full). So I topped it off with regular dish soap, turned on the dishwasher and left to run errands.
After my errands I came back home to make a sandwich to take back to the office. Well, I walk into the kitchen and HOLY SHIT the entire kitchen floor iss COVERED in suds! I am not exaggerating! Bubbles were EVERYWHERE! Let me tell you how long THAT took to clean up. Needless to say we don't have to mop the kitchen floor for a while....”
Yes, that actually happened.

Kiss me, I'm Irish!
We hope everyone had a wonderful Mardi Gras and that whatever you chose to give up for Lent, if anything, you are able to stick with it!
Now, moving on to the next festivity. There has been some underground noise about a possible T-Lo St. Pattie’s Day Party. I mean, where else would you go for this? We have a freaking lighted clover hanging in our front window and we drink Irish car bombs like it’s our job! There is a hitch however. T will not be present with us on this special day as she has her sister’s wedding to attend in TX (I know - how dare she not plan her wedding around our social life!) so the date will have to be moved. There is the distinct possibility that the party will be held the Friday prior to St. Pattie’s. Please indicate on our poll how you would feel about such an event.
P.s. We JUST realized that’s another Friday the 13th! Perfect!

What’s in our water? Part III
Thank you to everyone who made it to our V-Day party on Friday. It was a blast, per usual. TCO’s punch was a hit yet again. In fact, we’re still enjoying the leftovers ;). For those of you who told us you’d be there and never showed up, don’t even TRY to use the rain as an excuse. You flaked out. End of story. But you’re still invited to the next party :). Anyway, it’s times like this we wish our blog wasn’t anonymous (ha! Who are we kidding?). There are some very imiwa pics of a certain someone’s homemade pink tutu that we unfortunately will not be posting here.
It is quite obvious that once again, the Montgomery Water Works and Sanitary Sewer Board has been tampering with our water supply. If you weren’t out Tuesday night you missed one hell of a shit-show. EVERYONE was COMPLETELY plastered beyond anything we’ve ever seen! Manny described it like being in the Twilight Zone. It was absolutely bizarre. We witnessed at least two people completely bite it. One guy even took out some poor woman with him. She was sitting at the nudie photo hunt machine, and this guy smashed her into the machine when he pummeled her! Fortunately for both of them she was just as hammered as he was and couldn’t care less. I think they ended up going home together. It was like this all night long.
And the insanity apparently wasn’t limited to Cloverdale. At some point we got word that Manny’s friend AJ, who had been out east at Foot on the Floor, lost his wallet to a crack whore! That sucks big time. I don’t even think he got laid, the poor guy!
Also, at some point the conversation turned to hard drugs (???) because the next morning Lo pulled THIS little gem out of her purse:
Bar-nap:
"If you can't do drugs w/your family, do them w/a hooker.
-T"
In other equally disturbing news, Thelma FINALLY got her new car! Guess what kind it is…A BEETLE!!! The disturbing part is actually not the make of the car, but that it’s a stick. Thelma doesn’t know how to drive a stick. She had a quick lesson after work yesterday but it was cut short due to tornadic conditions. So for the first time since we can remember, Lo drove us to the bar. Anyway, that’s your warning to stay off the roads when T’s en route. You can call ahead before you go anywhere to check on her location if you want. It’s probably not a bad idea. Also, so you know what to look out for, the Beetle is navy blue and it’ll be the one bouncing erratically down the street (that whole changing gears deal is really complicated and difficult to learn). It might even be stalled.
As a side note, thank you to all who turned in the proper paperwork for the position of “BF/Assistant/Handler/Entourage” of Lo. The position has been filled. That is all.
