And I'm jealous of Teppy.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

I'm fairly sure I spent at least $36 on drinks.

I know Hil had five drinks.
She did the math the next day.

I can't remember how many drinks I bought. I misplaced at least one, and then...well I got really drunk.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Yeah, Joe spent about $50-$60 on drinks. That seems exceptionally low.

That number really doesn't look right. I spent more than $20 too.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Why do I have the feeling that the hotel is underreporting what was actually spent?

It might not be the hotel, it might be the bartender. I remember a mess at the beginning when he didn't have change, so he was using tip money, etc.

I can't even.
Yikes, I think I spent like 30% of the cash taken in by the bar.

Okay, then. So our university residence people liked to have "Milk and Cookies/Tuck-ins" organized between twinned floors of the all-men and the all-women residences. One of the guys on our floor (the floor senior) was a cynical rat bastard who hated this stuff. He also disliked the guy whose girlfriend at the female residence was one of the organizers.
During one "tuck-in", to the consternation of the assembled, he did a tour of the halls and went into this guy's room as his tuck-in was in progress and sat on the bed. Wearing a sock. Just a sock. The boyfriend says to him (among other things), "Dave, that was a scrutty thing to do." And from that day forward, he was no longer Dave. He had no name except The Scrut.

Either way, I think the hotel should be notified about it. Because if there was a quota and they're claiming it wasn't met, we could be on the hook.
For the record, I spent nothing at the bar. I was wiped by the DC heat and humidity and all I could deal with was water. Alcohol, even under good circs, dehydrates, and I was already feeling as husked as a cicada.
