So this weekend was quite eventful. Lots of time on the strip as with an old friend from Chicago. I don't think I've ever really walked the strip until this weekend. It sure was different. Lots of cute girls on Saturdays... wow... I probably would've known that earlier had I had any desire at all to walk the strip.
Its way fun being with 2 other asians. Throughout the weekend, we found ourselves screaming out the car window at drunk people in chinese accents, screaming japanese company names in chinese accents in front of major hotels --I yelled MISTIRUBUSHIIIIIII, and this one guy said What?! I said in plain English, "Sorry, you wouldn't understand, its an asian thing," he and his whole group cracked up-- and posing with our fists out like some sort of ridiculous character out of DragonBall Z or like Stinkoman from Strongbad's email, as well as making fun of all the asians who were drunk and gambling. They were screaming out loud stupid things in their asian accents, but not for the same reason and fun that my friends and I were doing... One guy ended up actually doing something similar to one of our screams/poses AT A PAI GOW TABLE!! We were DYING!!! Soo funny... He had his legs all spread out, bent at the knees like some yoga position, with his left hand above his head pointing down at the table, and his right hand pointing to the same card, I couldn't tell what the crap he said, but it was drawn out, loud, and was definitely asian.
We hit up a couple REALLY awesome ALL YOU CAN EAT type restaurants, one was a buffet, one was a brazilian steakhouse. Both of them were freakin amazing. The buffet was at the Mirage and it was called Cravings, and the steakhouse was at Planet Hollywood, but I don't remember what it was called. Anyway, I don't think I've ever had so much meat at one time... I freakin hope I gained a couple pounds, I dang well should have with how much I ate. Oh yeah, the steakhouse offered 11 types of meat ranging from chicken (and their hearts) to picanha. Good stuff.
Oh, and of course, I had an embarrassing moment. I was just walking off the escalator from the parking garage at the Mirage when this girl and I caught eyes and stared at each other as we passed each other. Yeah you know, the one where you're checkin her out, and she's doin the same?
Classic really.. a guy stopped in front of me about 3 feet after I passed her, and I definitely was NOT looking forward... Go me... I'm smooth.
Yeah, I'm tired. And tired of typing.

I look dang good sometimes. Especially when I'm asian.
