    Hiya chickadees,

    I jest stumbled back in de lounge and will be jumping in de pool. 

    It is heating up fast here todey. I hope I don't poop out when mese boys come over to swim. I had a widdle nap and mese belly feels better. I hate that I have to eat so much to take meds or I pay de price. Even a bowl of cereal does not do it. Oh well, no sense complaining cuz ebberbuddy dwunk. 

    I really miss our Lori and Kathy here. Miss Lori so busy still unloading truck load after truck load of stuff from the big operation. So happy de mission was successful. And Katwinka biddy staying up all night partaying. I bese so happy when two of mese fab bweasties come back in de lounge. 

    Hugs and love to all of de loungettes and prayers for a beautiful happy dey!

    cheers!

Got back to condo in wee hrs of morning, and gonna head back to de Casino for a big brunch buffet with mimosas....luckily got all food comped here, which is great for Vegas. PLUS got comped into a concert last night with a local LV group we love (Yellow Brick Road) and have followed for yrs, plus oldies like Eddie Money, The Romantics, and the COMMODORES. Actually the Commodores were a dissapointment, and we were there from 5:30 to 11:00.....they were last group to perform. Had an awesome time, hoping for fun in CA, then back to Vegas tamarra night. WooHOO!!!! Going to Sun City then back to Sin City.

    Alli, Tubing sounds such fun, plus BOATING.....I am yellious!!!! Have a blast! Dorkie, Hope your DD is much better! Have not been able to read back much, so will have umpteen million gazillion pages to read when I get home Wed...or....will just jump back in at the last post. Really hope you are all doing well, miss hearing about you all, and miss partaying in de HTL. Take care, will check in when we can!!!

    Babe D you must now be the official dwink of de da lady.

     1 1/2 ounces Jameson Irish Whisky

    3/4 ounce Noilly Prat sweet vermouth
    2 dashes Angostura bitters
    1 can Guinness


    #Preparation
    Add the whisky, vermouth, and bitters to an empty mixing glass, then add enough ice to fill the glass 2/3 of the way full. Stir for 20 seconds and then strain into a Martini glass.
    Pour Guinness into a cold glass large enough to hold the whole can plus a little extra (16-24 oz.). After pouring, wait about 90 seconds for the Guinness to settle. Carefully spoon all of the light brown foam from the top of the Guinness and place it gently on top of the drink, in the Martini glass.
    Optional: To make the shamrock, fill an atomizer or small spray bottle with Angostura bitters. Using either a stencil or a thick paper cut-out of a shamrock you made yourself, lightly place the sheet on top of the foam. Spray with the atomizer. Remove stencil sheet and serve.

    Good morning, Loungettes! OK, Firefox has crashed three times now, I'm giving up on pictures for today. Gonna find another way to entertain you all today.


    CynCyn--Thanks for wishing me a beepless day
    It worked really well, I must say!
    Sometimes you take the best that comes your way
    And move up to better when you get better pay!

    DorKable-- At my church words are projected on a screen,
    Except for Bibles, there's not a book to be seen!
    It's funny when the power's out ,
    How much we use it is never in doubt!

    Mrs. Vino--have fun today on the water with the grandchild,
    I can imagine you giving him a tubing ride that's wild!

    Wahine--You're having a great time and I'm happy for you,
    All the free stuff is great fun, too!
    We're waiting for your report on Sun City,
    What is fun and what is pretty.

    Bernie--I love the dwink with shamrock in the foam,
    Wish I could make fancy drinks like that at home!

    Juliet--I love the funny pics, especially the one with the ant
    Who is carrying along the really fun plant!

    Apple--Welcome to the lounge, I bet you'll like us,
    We drink and gamble but never make a fuss!


    Princess Glitter Sizzle's DOTD is the Rhyming Fool
    1 1/2 oz Brandy
    1/2 oz Triple Sec
    1 oz Madeira

    Directions
    Pour the brandy, madeira wine and triple sec into a mixing glass half-filled with ice. Stir well. Strain into a cocktail glass, and serve.

    wow NM, what an awesome poet you are!

    Finally have wifi in room, which is GAWGEOUS, amazing corner room with almost endless windows, overlooking the water in Long Beach. Wish we all could party here!!!! Leaving early as lots to do here before going back to Vegas this afternoon. IF anyone has not heard about the Electric Daisy Chain festival, it was this past weekend in Vegas, SO the traffic coming across the Mojave desert was horrid, bumper to bumper, and took hours to get here.

    HOPE everyone has an awesome day!!! Lori, hope you don't overdo, but are able to get a lot done. Dorkie, hope you are feeling better and can call it a pretty titty instead of a shitty titty. It better behave and get well and NOT shift!!!! Only got to read a couple of posts, and gotta get my butt in gear and get ready for the day. REALLY love your rhyming to all of us, NM.....that is sooooooo neat!!!!!

    Hugssssssssss all,

    Kathatired
