It had to be you!

Let's dance the night away.....

Take your partner and sway into the night as snow gently falls on the city. Covering everything with a fresh clean cover.

Happy Days!

Oh I forgot the introductory video....


Here is a video of one of the ballrooms where some dancing was happening.

 
There was a lot of activity at this venue. They had four floors of things happening. The event had hired actors and actresses to dress up in various costumes. They had dancers who went out on the floor to entertain and entice people to dance. Three bands each on a different floor. A guy on stilts.
These dancers grabbed a couple of people from the audience to cut a rug out on the floor. But there were some regular people who were very good.
 

Hey buddy.....let me ask you a question


We got our masques on and went to the bar for a drink. The first dance area had a table outside where you could be drink tickets and you just presented them at the bar and got your drink. We had on masques on were ready to go. Debbie had a Venetian sort of Mardi Gra masque with a feather as she had a whole flapper thing going on. Frank had the famous Venetian mask with the long nose. When I saw it I told him "Hey that's the before masque from the Viagra commercial."
 
Now the next photo is even worse than normal. There was this black dude about my age in a white James Bond dinner jacket with a blond chick who was about twenty two. He had one of these Venetian nose masques. Only it was all black and the nose was about four inches longer. So you know me. I go to him "Hey how come your's is bigger?"

He laughed and said "What can I say that's just the way it is man!" Turned out his name was Nate and he was from Philly and he was in town with his girl for the weekend. We hung out with them here and there throughout the night and recommended a couple of restaurants in Midtown and gave him some names of people to ask for to drop my name. He was a pretty cool dude for a Philly fan. I finally got him to agree that Michael Vick sucked dead dog dick.  So a good time was had by all.

I was wrong...again.





Our Valentines day adventure was actually a lot of fun. Unlike most people who just went for dinner or had a quiet night at home we went out to an event in the financial district. It was a French cabaret themed costume gala over several floors in a converted old club on Pine St.

This was the sign in area. We were the first people to show up. Normally we are always  late but we actually were there before they even opened. You had to sign in and get a stamp on you hand like you were going into a club or something. They had a great coat check so we could check our coats and galoshes and winter gear. I think somebody checked a huskie and muckluck. They went went upstairs to the dining room. We had the dinner package and it was surprisingly good.

Lisa had the chicken with string beans and mashed. They start you off with a salad and you got a chocolate mousse tart which was actually quite nice. I has the mushroom risotto which I really enjoyed as I have not had any carbs for a month. So the risotto and the dinner roll was like ice cream and I was one happy douchenozzle.

A funny thing happened when the check came. I didn't really know the other couple as they were Lisa's friends from back in the day. We had ordered two bottles of wine but when the bill game the waitress only put one on the bill. We all agreed that we had to call her back to fix the mistake and that we should pay for what we had consumed. In joints like this they would make the waitress pay for her mistake and we wouldn't want that. It is extremely bad karma. I was very happy to see that we were all in agreement. I knew I could trust them and enjoy their company. You see I judge people by how they treat the waiter. So it was time to suit up. Put on our masques and go out to the ball!

Happy Valentines Day!

My honey and I rested all day. It is the only day off we get this week. We have finished three episodes and are on to the fourth. We had a friend come over for lunch and we enjoyed a day relaxing at home.

We spend so many days out that our joy is to stay home and relax. I cooked a nice little meal and we caught up on a few shows. The wife got together with two of her close friends and they are going to see another of our friends sing at the Met.

And the best part of girls nights ou?

I get to stay home!

Priceless.

 Happy Valentines Day!
