What I learned from last weekend's festivities

While shopping for proper attire:
-It's possible for four girls to each find burlesque outfits in under 30 minutes
-Darcy looks really good in lingerie when she tries it on in the middle of the store with her t-shirt on underneath
-Jelly bracelets are making a comeback
-Frilly bloomers are supposed to be worn under skirts, but we looked WAY hot in just the bloomers

From Bombshell Betty:
-When in doubt, shake it
-Always show inner thigh
-Use a boa to accentuate your curves
-Fishnets are surprisingly hot, you'd think they'd breath a little
-Lipstick on teeth is not a good look
-Burlesque dancers in the days of yore would have taken their clothes off if they could've gotten away with it
-How to make my own pasties

During dinner:
-Vin Diesel has a twin and he's a mover/voiceover artist/waiter in San Francisco - and his name is Alan
-It's possible to fall down upon entering a restaurant and still seem cool
-V-dub is somehow not attracted to Jon Kelly, but has been saying she was so that she could fit in
-One arm in the jacket and one arm out is a good solution to a heat lamp on one side and the cool SF air on the other
-In a group picture, it's good to take the first one with your eyes closed

At AsiaSF:
-A "gender illusionist" is really just a fancy name for a transexual
-Muscled male strippers look good in firemen's gear
-More than one bathroom is needed for a club hosting more than one bachelorette party
-If you're dancing at a club while wearing tighty whities and sagging your pants, DO NOT take off your shirt
-Taking a burlesque dance class then walking to a restaurant 8 blocks away, then to the club 4 blocks away, THEN dancing for a few hours, can really make your feet hurt - not funny, but true

At Meeting the next morning:
-Quakers sure are funny, in their own way
