Things I learned while staying in a hotel room last night because I was too lazy to drive home after a dinner party only to get back up uber-early and drive back for a morning class

  • Water in hotel sinks tastes funny.  It tastes like a toilet smells when it flushes.  Just weird.
  • And your teeth never quite feel clean afterwards.
  • It is entirely possible to pack the Sponge Bob toothpaste and completely forget the mascara.
  • I will pay upwards of $6 for a tube of mascara at the closest possible store because, lord knows, you can't go to a dinner party without enhanced lashes.
  • Queen size beds are for thin people and newlyweds.  King is the way to go, baby!
  • The purple and pink stripes I purposely had put in my hair last week don't look very cool in the florescent bathroom light, but look freaking awesome under dinner party mood lighting.  
  • Yes, I dyed my hair pink and purple.  I'm living on the edge - or at least outside minivan zone.  
  • Beds that don't smell like Cheerios just don't smell right.  
  • Adjoining rooms are a little freaky when you're pretty sure the adjoin with they pervy looking guy and his tattoo-eye-browed wife you noticed roaming the halls.  
  • It is completely impossible for me to do a number 2 anywhere but home.  Thanks for passing down that weird trait, mom.  
  • When the sleep timer on the remote is broken it is impossible to take advantage of your new found freedom to fall asleep to the TV with no spousal bitching.  
  • Being away from my family sucks.  Except when it is for surgery cause then there's drugs involved and nobody gives a crap about anything.  Plus somebody is paid to help you pee.  
  • Seriously, why does the water taste funny?
  • I could have squeezed more words in the title but didn't want to overdue it.  
  • When I did have the color put in my hair they told me it was called a peek-a-boo.  When I informed my husband that I got a peek-a-boo he thought it was some saucy way of waxing my lady business.  
  • The previous point has nothing to do with the hotel.  I just felt like sharing.  
  • Goodbye.
