The Pepper Lounge

Friday night I was fortunate enough to find myself at the semi-exclusive, ultra-trendy Pepper Lounge on Locust at 20th.

I am now a devoted Pepper Lounge patron.

The beats are phat, the style is exquisite, and the clientele is incredibly charming. On a Friday night what I'm looking for is a place where I can wet my whistle with over-priced drinks, listen to the latest from Chris Brown, be scoffed at by pretentious men and women, and watch the staff work in their underwear. The Pepper Lounge effectively covers all of those bases.

The DJ was cutting some sick mash-ups, and the crowd was into it! I wasn't complaining either, since after all, one of my primary goals for any Friday night is to watch leggy blondes shakin' it to the latest cuts from the biggest hit-makers in hip hop.

I saw two people I knew and what do you think I did? Avoided them of course. I wasn't there to hang out with people I'm friends with; I wanted to meet some fresh faces! I was mingling with St. Louis' finest. A cross section of the best and brightest beautiful people on St. Louis' A-list.

Celebrity sightings? Yup. Cast members from the hit faux-reality show Reno 911 were participating in the festivities. That's star power. I saw that huge black guy drinking a rum and coke and that's when I knew that I had finally made it.

So if you're interested in going to a place where you can hob-knob with the who's who of St. Louis, see the latest fashions, and finally BE someone, I recommend The Pepper Lounge on Locust at 20th.

Black Eye

I fell UP the stairs last night, bruising my eye and my ego. To answer everyone's questions, it was not a fight and there was alcohol involved.

party flyer

You may not know this, but there is an Enterprise Rent-A-Car office right across the hall from me at work. This is the exact copy of the flyer that was in a vehicle that someone turned in today. I'm so mad that I found this and it wasn't given to me.

Welcome to the blog. I guess this is my first post. Which means that approximately four (4) people will read it.

Here are some random thoughts that I feel should be posted on the internet:

1. Birthday cakes are the best when they are actually a plate of chicken burgers
2. Whoever has my Beulah record needs to give it back immediately
3. I wish that Mark Sandman wasn't dead. He is probably the only man that comes to mind that I would want to sing a song to me.
4. When a woman says "I had fun [last night, etc]" it really means "I want to go out with you in the future and I am thinking about what first base is like with you." I suspect that there is more coded language in women's speaking. I will keep the internet up to date as I make discoveries.
5. You can boil down the general population into people who know and use "walkin' drinks" and people who don't.
6. 85% of St. Louis Mardi Gras patrons are Sammy Hagar fans. (St. Louisons: Be careful who you make this snide observation to.)
7. Mississippi Queen by Mountain is the best one-hit-wonder ever.
8. I've watched all of the movies in the Terminator franchise. SkyNet, the system that takes over the technology that fights the human race, is the fictional name for real-life MySpace.com. of course!
9. I think Snoop Dogg is a good role model. Seriously.
