I got up yesturday morning at 7am after a shabby 4 hours of sleep. It was an overall busy day. I did so many things like cleaning, errands, meeting up with friends for brunch, hitting the gym, rollerblading up and down Roosevelt Island, smoking one too many blunt objects with Tony and thereafter the night just became an uneventful waste of money.

I met up with my favorite pizza boy for a movie. Nacho Libre sucks, do not go and see this movie! Wait for the DVD, watch it, and then talk bad about it. After the movie the pizza boy and I just looked at each other thinking the very same thing. We had just been bamboozled out of thirty something dollars and the highlight of the night was the popcorn.

He had to work and I had to party. We said goodbye and I jumped on a cab to meet up with my buddy Tony for a few drinks. After the 15 dollar cab ride back to Astoria, Tony and I rolled a fat one, and spent another 15 dollars on a cab ride back to this place called Show.

I WILL NEVER EVER BE SEEN AT SHOW AGAIN! What a horrible experience the whole thing was from the very beginning. Let’s start of with the cover charge. It was 30 dollars per victim. Perhaps, I have gotten a bit spoiled thanks to an array of New York guest list I am lucky enough to be able to get on and hardly ever having to pay a cover but thirty dollars on a non holiday weekend Sunday night seems a little steep. The guy at the door searches us and acquisitioned a nice fat rolled up one we were saving for later, that was the second infraction. We walk in and see that the population was 90 percent Asian, most old men who were around to see the fall of the Ming Dynasty and the remaining 10 percent were Transsexuals with the largest tits that money could buy. By the way Asians smoke a lot. At least that’s what I gathered at the event. Oh, and the New York smoking ban does not apparently apply to them. There must be a clause or something.

I went straight up to the VIP lounge where no one or anything of importance going on. I had a drink made by one of my favorite New York City bartenders, Marible. She always hooks it up. I ordered two long islands and she charged for one and made both of them deadly. A five dollar tip is always required in situations like this.

It was unbearable being lost in that Asian sea of outsiders and huge floatation device like Transsexual breasts around us. We decide to step out. Guess what? No reentry. 30min, a 12 dollar drink, a 10 dollar blunt, a 5 dollar tip and a 30 dollars entry fee gone just like that.

So I did the next stupid thing a person could possibly do it a night like such. I went to the next stupid bar. Esquelita was the closest bar/club in walking distance. They wanted 20 dollars for the entry fee and forgot to say that there was a ball going on.

Everyone was for the most of African American identity and no one who I knew. Again, I was lost I a cultural specific sea of boredom surrounded by huge transsexual flotation-like tits. Spent 8 dollars on a drink and left after 20 min, to catch yet another cab to leave me where I should have stayed in the first place.
