Cinco de Mayo Is The Best Day Ever....Until The Next Morning

Those of you that know me, know that there are two days I absolutely love. I loves me some Halloween and I loves me some Cinco de Mayo. I was so very excited for the fun the night would bring. I got some new headgear for because I've retired my giant sombrero. Besides, I've gotta be a little different than everyone else. ;-)

We head out to Acapulcos, (which I can never pronounce for some reason), and the line is absolutely atrocious. The wait for a table is an hour and half and we can't even make our way to the bar because there are too many damn people. WTF? Me no like! We spend about two minutes looking lost then head to Margaritas. Margaritas was seriously the Cinco de Mayo promised land. As soon as we walked in, there was a pregnant waitress selling beers at the door. Hilarious and fantastic. We're told the wait was 2hrs. Ugh. (I will say that the place was JUMPING.) I asked to be pointed in the direction of the bar because there was absolutely no way in Mejico that we were waiting that long to eat or drink!

We push our way to the bar and fell in love. There were all types of delicious concoctions and extremely friendly people suggesting what to try. We started out with good old flavored margaritas which were very tasty and laden with tequila. YUM. Then we get to chatting and make friends. Yeah.....we should probably stick around for awhile. 4hrs later, we finally manage to make it out of Margaritas but not without a little crazyness.

Here comes the crazy:

-We make friends with the guys standing around the bar with us.

-People stalk me for my headband

-We stalk a table that I noticed was being vacated from my first trip to the bathroom.

-We make eye contact with the older ladies at the table and we're in there.   

-We befriend the ladies and they make all types of crude and hilarious comments

-We order all types of yummy food                        

-We ingest a drink called Heavens to Margatroid (ruh roh)
-We beat down the food

-We ingest Tarantula shots! (We fall in love!)     

-We meet Jaime (and his racist ass friend)who tells us all about his failed relationship and date on Match.com

-Jaime orders Tarantula shots. We like Jaime.
-After shots, Jaime proclaim he's ready to make out.
-Jaime gets the side eye.

-Here comes Frank. Frank touches me. Me no like.

-Frank buys Tarantula shots. We like Frank, so long as he doesn't touch Kellee.

-Frank orders more food. We don't eat. Frank orders more shots.....

-11:30ish we leave and around 12:30 I pass out.



Tarantula Shots



There were a whole lot of other things that happened and even more hilarious things that were said but you get the gist. Cinco de Mayo is the greatest night ever....until I woke up this AM and it felt like there were miniature mariachis dancing in my head.

Cinco de Mayo, oh how I love thee. Seis de Mayo is the ugly step sister to Cinco. Bruja!
