Ahh yes my pets, my weave is back stateside after a jaunt to London for the weekend...and clearly I am
jetlagged and
lookin a hot
fuckin tranny mess. But what a trip it was!
I arrived Thursday morning, just in time to meet Ms. Sara at the church (only makes sense for you foreskin lovers in London). After some freshening up and some weave maintenance, we bounced to meet Ms. Lucy, Ms.
Arwen, and Mr. Scott for some lunch at one of the rivaling Pizza Express restaurants at the
Barbican.
Holla at my lovely
Fiorentina where they dump a tasty poached egg on the pizza. It's much like
serrogate pregnancy I suppose...where they dump a tasty poached egg on your...well, uterus. What's up fallopian tubes! That evening, I met Ms. Samantha in Soho for dinner where we slammed loads of Thai food and a bottle of Rose down before meandering into the streets. We had about a dozen drinks at Alphabet and Maya before the evening's end and my weave was
lookin all sorts of horse hair crazy.
Friday was full of lovely shopping and moseying in Central London, but I eventually had to go back to Sara's to prepare for the evening. We zipped to the Tate Modern for some pregame beverages. Minor celeb sighting of Mr. Keith Murray of We Are Scientists near "the crack" in the lobby. Thanks to the hook up by the lovely Ms.
Arwen, we had access to the Members Only 6
th floor where we managed to polish off 5 bottles of
Sancerre, while relaxing on the (wet) outdoor patio and enjoying the scenery. Hey River. Then off to the main event in
Bishopsgate where a gaggle of us met at Pizza
Pomodoro for some foolishness and
fabulousness. Pizza
Pomodoro is truly an odd experience. Built in a former Turkish bath, it redefines tacky kitsch in a whole new way. If you looked up "hot
tranny mess" in
Wikipedia, there would be a picture of us dancing in the restaurant. It's essentially raunchy Italian food but the main attraction are cover singers who sing songs from the 80's and 90's. Yes, that's right...I'll have some cheese bread with jalapenos while listening to a cover of "Your Love Is My Love". Hot
tranny mess? Check. It was indeed a very fun night where we drank to our heart's content and danced with some chicken heads at a neighboring party. And how did the evening end? Typically...with a dance party til the wee hours in the church. An evening is never complete until you've heard our rendition of "Please Don't Stop the Music" while dressed in packing supplies.
Saturday, Ms. Sara and I had a lazy day full of brunching and napping - my favorite weekend activities. That evening, after polishing off a tasty meal at Thai Square, we headed to the Bavarian
Beerhouse for Ms. Sara and Ms. Morgan's leaving party. We had a lovely private room where some serious drinking was going down. If my liver was a college freshman, I'd essentially thrown it into the group showers of the lacrosse team at Duke. Oh snap! And that's just my back...my neck... After closing down the joint, we attempted a few bars on Essex Road but due to full capacity and general English tomfoolery, we ended up at 2AM at
a flat with 5 pizzas and watching The Sound of Music. At one point, the mo-
ness level was so high that we all spontaneously had anal leakage and flooded the place. Fortify the dams and hide your children...there is a sea of anal leakage coming our way! And the hillllllz are aliiiive......
Sunday morning was a quick brunch at The Marquess Tavern and it was delicious. Highly recommended, especially if you're a roast lover. (
