Durrty Durrty Blog 22: MA MA MIA!
Hello again!
This is Crouton coming to you from Arizona. I'm about to tell you about the past 3 days I've had. Days off, that is. We started out in California...you know, that lovely city of Los Angeles where I was last talking about plastic surgery. We all went to the beach, and I got out before everybody else did trying to check out the waves. I don't surf at all. I'll tell you one thing, though...I could surf across the stage better than any Xanadu could...and not complain about it.
So I went out there thinking I was cool. Took off my tank top. Yeah, I'm catching some rays. And then, all of a sudden, 50 mph wind hit me with sand blasts. The Santa Anas were hitting me every santa ana-way they could. It felt like 10 million sand bee bees ripping my flesh off. And normally I like the beach, and it was fun until all that sand started hitting my flesh and going into my eyes burning. And all wanted to do was go to Melrose and shop, but I couldn't because we were actually at Huntington Beach. I was hunting for Brittany Spears while out there.
So we finally got to LA and I got some of the best Mexican food that I'd had in a long time. Better than any Mexican food that Xanadu could concoct. El Compadre. Whoo, and I had to drop mis compadres in the toilet the next day, let me tell you!
After we spent a little time in LA, we hopped on the bus and started heading toward Las Vegas, NV. Woo hoo! And on the way, Tux, our bus driver, had to pull over because the wind was so strong it felt like our bus was going to flip. So we hung out at this really cool bus stop for awhile.
After the winds subsided a little, we headed to Las Vegas. My mom came out to see us, and it was cool to see my mom. Soul Glow Activatur and his wife and Cash had this great idea to get a hotel room at Mandalay Bay...and Mom got one too. For some reason, something happened to their first room, and they were upgraded to a 1,000 foot suite for the same price! Totally the bomb. So I called my mom when I woke up and asked, "Hey, where are you?" She was like, "Yo, I'm in this pimp hotel." So I was like, "I'm there, dude."
So I got up there and it was one of those rooms where you could push buttons and the curtains would open. Real Star Trek-ky. It was awesome!
So that was one of the highlights in Las Vegas, because partially, Crouton doesn't really like Las Vegas. I love the peeps there, but I don't like Las Vegas as a whole. It's too overkill. All the ringing bells, lights, and buffets. So, another one of my highlights was Tofu Pup taking me to Mama Mia. Whew! Ma-ma-Mia! There are only so many times you can hear "Dancing Queen." Don't get me wrong, I like disco, but 2.5 hours of Abba=MA MA MIA!
But it was really awesome for Tofu Pup to take me to a show. Got me away from all the bells and whistles.
So after all this, I needed some time alone. Because Vegas time is a long time. I felt like I was there for a whole week, and I was only there for about 24 hours. So I walked myself to a movie theater, bought a ticket, and watched a movie by myself. And had a coke slurpee. So my 3 days off ended up being awesome. Now, if I could only get Xanadu off my back hassling me about getting all my clothes out of the aisle of the bus.
Wuv,
Cwouton
