Holed up in a hotel room

The chick asked for clarification. Here it goes.

On the fact finding mission, ESK and I decided to do a bit of collegial bonding. (no, nothing kinky - just an "out of office" leisure activity so that when the crap hits the grill we will function as like a greased up hamster dancing Mr. Roboto)

Bonding is always easier with booze. So, we bought a bottle of Yellow Tail in the hotel bar and carried it up to our room. We stopped by the vending machines and invested in a large quantity of cheezits because there was no source for microwave popcorn. We plugged up one of our laptops and watched the movie "Talledega Nights" and drank the entire bottle of Yellow Tail while munching the cheezits. The movie is unbelievably dumb and that's the genius of it. We laughed, slapped our foreheads, and giggled some more.

About 3am, I was forced to admit it was a very bad idea to consume that particular combination of wine and snacks. Or maybe it was the salad I had for lunch? Yeah - let's blame it on the salad.

As for the Karaoke -- Let's just say Hotel Bar, couple dozen drunk women, and they ran out of buffalo wings. It was frightening. And my rendition of Stand By Your Man brought the house down. I think they were laughing WITH me.
