Progressive Dinner

Attended a Progressive Dinner Friday night.

Photos here - thanks to Randy!

Quick overview: We arrived at a Downtown hotel around 6:30 pm, were split into three groups (mine was Group B, the most fun group of course) and then ushered onto a Limo Bus (aka The Party Bus). Once on the bus we cracked the champagne and dropped the first group at their restaurant and drove to the second, which is where my group was dropped. We enjoyed fab appetizers, drinks and good ole' fashioned conversation.

Knowing that we had drunk all of the champagne, a couple of us ran to the gas station next door to pick up some beer. Once on the bus again, we were shuttled to our second restaurant where we were served soup, salad and another drink. They switched out buses on us so our beer was AWOL.....but we did have new bottles of champagne. We arrived at our last place to be served steak, salmon, potatoes and beans....and another drink. Back on the bus....stop at a liquor store for more beer...and back downtown for dessert....and more drinks. I think you get the idea.

Some of my fondest memories and quotes of the evening:

"No, seriously, what is this pole for?"

Jessica and me running in heals and dresses to buy beer.

"Wow! There's a cooler back here to hide our beer!"

Randy bartering with the liquor store clerk over the price of a bottle opener.

The fact that somehow I was deemed the DJ and light controller in the bus.

Me seeing TJ take money out to tip the driver and thinking that if TJ is doing it, it must be the right thing to do....so I tipped the driver.....I think.

Me stealing the bottle opener out of Randy's coat.

Chocolate up my nose.

The fact that the next day I had a container of strawberries and chocolate in my fridge.

Good Times
