Guy town review will be delayed

News flash! BJ flew out this morning on a business trip for a few days. Guy Town review will be delayed.

Who cares about Guy Town anyway. Girl Town was F.U.N., mainly because I got to see my little sister more drunk than I've ever seen her in my entire life. OK, that's not saying much considering we both took up drinking only in the last couple of years. Just call us late bloomers.

We spent the day shopping and walking around down town. I saw a lot of tired old men sleeping while their wives were doing Christmas shopping. The younger ones weren't sleeping. Instead, they were lined up along the walls OUTSIDE of the stores. I kept wishing the screaming babies and the strollers that were continually ramming into my shins were outside with the men.

Heads up everyone; when I rule the world, strollers will not be allowed in malls during the Christmas shopping season.

While walking around outside, we saw lots of great religious signs. One in particular caught our eye. One side read, "Stop sinning, or else!!!" Yes, there really were three exclamation points. I guess he was super serious about this. The other side of the sign listed his top five list of sins. It was kind of funny looking though because it looked more like a laundry list. We especially liked the last item on the list; "Free sex". We wondered if anyone would try to take him up on that.

I guess the list of sins made quite an impact on us because shortly after seeing this sign we spent five hours in a pub. FIVE HOURS. That's more than I've spent in any pub all year added together.

I was knocking back Key Lime Pie martini's (my new favorite fru fru drink), and she was having Cosmopolitans (my old favorite fru fru drink). When sis started having Marty Feldman eyes ( it was dark so you'll have to trust me on the crazy eye thing), I decided it was time that we stop with the drinking, and start with the eating. Because, being the older and wiser sister, I know whose job it is to ensure our health and well being.

After we paid the rent on our booth at the pub, we wandered our way back to the hotel. It was between 30 and 35 degrees out and we weren't really dressed for the weather. We were absolutely freezing for the one mile trek back to the hotel. Although cold, we did pause for a moment so we could make a prank call to hubby. I just wanted an opportunity to tell him that we were a couple of drunks standing on a street corner in a bad part of town. He just loves hearing stuff like that.

When all was said and done, we were two very miserable sister's last night. We were cold, we had tummy aches and our heads were spinning. Last time we shared that sort of misery, we were kids with the flu. That's not nearly as much fun.

Thanks sis for a GREAT day. I love you!
