Michelle’s Birthday Day of Recovery and Absinthe

Oof. I woke up around one o’clock today. We were supposed to go to a brunch downstairs but it didn’t look like that was gonna happen for me. Michelle was able to make it there early and then went to the pool. Meanwhile I slept and Allie had to just lie in bed for a while. Once Allie and I finally got up we made our way downstairs, saw the massive line for brunch buffet, and went to a different restaurant instead. I got a ham and cheese crepe. Then we went to the pool, met up with Michelle, swam around for a while, and returned to the room to shower and get ready for the evening. We took the shuttle from the hotel to the strip and decided to explore the Venetian. We walked through the hotel and saw the incredibly beautiful frescoes, art exhibits, and designs around the building.There was an autumn theme here as well.

WHAT SEASON IS IT NOW I CAN'T REALLY TELL

The corridors were stunning.

The people underneath it could use some work, however. 

And I loved the Venetian tower in the distance IT WAS SO CUUUTE.

Adorable!

We walked more along the street, and passed these freaky peeps

It's me and Allie!

AND THEN I FOUND MYSELF BEHIND BRUCE AND JAN.

Bruce! Jan! What da hell you doin' here??

We decided to go to a restaurant in the Cosmopolitan called Holsteins Shakes and Buns. They gave us free popcorn and I got a glass of wine!

Popcorn and wine...? This is a terrible idea.

For an appetizer I got SOUTHERN FRIED BACON. It was the richest and most unhealthy thing I’ve ever eaten.

Paula Deen would be proud. And racist?

Then for dinner I got a kobe beef burger topped with foie gras and truffle mayo. WITH A SIDE OF SWEET POTATO FRIES MMMM.

So. Much. Richness.

Unfortunately, I think between the whole hungover feeling and having such rich terribleness, I got super nauseated and COULDN’T FINISH MY FOOD. GAAAAHHHHH IT DEFEATED ME. Also I think the wine did NOT help surprisingly. WHO WOULD’VE GUESSED. After we got the check, Michelle found a new pair of shoes she wanted to try on. And then forced me to take a picture of her with them.

Michelle I think we may want to ask for a smaller size

At 10 pm we had the show Absinthe to see, so we made our way to Caesar’s Palace. I excused myself to use the restroom and Allie and Michelle decided to hijack my camera and take stupid pictures.

Gingerbeer penis?

So cute!

This pic makes me so angry.

Da fuck?

Upskirts. Gross.

The lady kinda looks like she's trying to grab my balls.

So we saw Absinthe, which was AMAZING!!

Took place in this cool circus tent

I definitely recommend it to everyone who comes to Vegas. It’s very adult oriented, not suitable for children at all. I can only really describe it as a nineteenth century circus/burlesque show. It was so cool.

Lighting, sound, design, everything was spectacular. 

After the show, we headed back the hotel, and I bought Michelle some chocolate covered strawberries.

HAAAAAPPPPYYYY BIRTHDAY MOOSH MOO FACE

Then we all promptly went to bed. Tomorrow I should be BACK UP FOR MORE DRINKING BAHAHA.
