Will try to keep this post a relatively short one, as I'm feeling a bit under the weather. Stuffy head, aching back & neck and am also losing my voice. Anyway, today I met up with Sai Yeung Choi in Flushing again and we headed out to Roslyn Heights in Long Island for a BBQ. It was hosted by one of SYC's contractor contacts. We were given a tour of the house and property. Both were very nice, but we both agree that the house, even with the extension, is on the small side. We basically had a hot dog each, chit-chatted a little and left about an 1-1.5 hours later. Was kind of disappointed at the lack of ogling opportunities.
From Long Island, we drove to Almost Thermae. Along the way, SYC stopped by at a Wendy's drive-thru to pick up a burger. Can you believe a single Baconator burger (not meal) cost almost $7? WTF?!? For this price in BKK, you could've had 2 bowls of Thai noodles, 5 fried drumsticks from the chicken guy, a soft drink, coconut mango sticky rice and a DQ ice-cream cone.
Anyway, we got to Almost Thermae at around 7 PM. We see Curly at her usual station serving up drinks. However, both Matchstick and Stay Puft were MIA. Must be their day off. In their places were Fat Alberta and K-Pop. SYC ordered his usual hot coffee. I passed, as my throat was feeling sore. Due to me losing more of my voice, we forgo chatting and used SMS/text msg, instead.
Today, the crowd was bigger than last night's. As a result, we didn't get to sit at our usual Corner Office until close to 8 PM. Had to settle for the stools up front near the counter for a little over an hour. The long list of lounge lizards in the house include Olive, Stripes, Zoned Out Guy, Mr. & Mrs. Mute, Korean Chix 1-3, Music Man, Butt Crack Girl, Ass Out Man, The Professor, Fat Bastard, Kim Jong-un, Barnaby's Cousin, Baseball Cap Girl and Tennis Star. Barnaby 2.0 made a late appearance too, just as we were heading out at around 8:30 PM.
As the day progressed, I was feeling more and more exhausted due to the aforementioned sick symptoms. It was good I didn't have to take the van back home, as SYC was nice enough again to give me a lift.
