Drunk Travel Log

Post by Dear Booze »

It's that time of the year. The time of the year where I do a lot of traveling for work. It's boring as shit, but it's a great opportunity to seek out new drinking spots. Currently, I'm in Anaheim, California. Almost exactly two years ago, I had one of my favorite drinking weeks of my life and wrote about it here:

http://www.drunkard.com/bbs/viewtopic.p ... m#p1139731

This year, I've decided to use this forum as my own personal Travel Log and simply post my drunk shit in real time. Hell, I may even take requests.

I'm currently posted at the Marriott Hotel lobby bar and just started on my second rum and coke.

Stand by...

I'd really like #3 in a series of drinks, but all three bartenders are huddled together talking about something important. I think they are discussing the formation of a "mail-order gillotine company" - which would be awesome. But it's probably a discussion about "who ordered the long Island iced tea". Fucking hotel workers always have exotic accents.

Wait. Okay. I just received #3.

At McFaddens. This place is the opposite of a good bar. But "bad" is not song enough. It's fucking shitty. They are out of Guinness. Seriously. A place named McFadden's is out of Guinness.

One pint of Moose Drool and I'm out of here.

At the Hilton Hotel lobby bar. Another rum and coke. Starting to feel it.

Bartender is odd. I believe he's a stroke survivor.

Everyone in here is trying to get laid and the pickup lines are lame. "You are very beautiful," "Are you staying here?" "Put her drink on my tab...". "Whatever happened to the good old "Hey bartender, give us each six more of these, we're gonna take them upstairs." Or "hey baby, wanna fuck?"

The kids these days!

Another really good line - which always worked for me is "Weird, but I've got 18 sofas in my room. How many do you have? Wanna come see them? It's the damnedest thing!"

What's this bullshit, piped-in lobby music?

"Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl from Ipanema goes walking, and as she passes, the guys all stop and say, 'hey babe, wanna burn one?'"

"Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl from Ipanema goes walking, and as she passes, the guys all stop and say, 'hey babe, wanna ride my Harley?'"

I'm officially drunkie.

Day 2.

It's 1:115 P.M. and I've got a break from the excitement of doing nothing. The hotel bar looks inviting, but I really want to find a local bar. Anaheim might not have any. Everything is so fake in this town. I blame it on Walt Fucking Disney.

It's going to be a long day.

I made a poor decision today. A real rookie move. I started drinking early, but was scheduled to attend a cocktail reception at 6:00. I showed up sloppy and am still here.

The party has moved to the Marriott and I am unable to stand up without swaying. I just excused myself to go "make a call", but in reality, I'm smoking on the porte cochere and typing this.

In a moment, a Mexican guy will tell me his views on Trump. Yeaaaa. Can't fucking wait!

I don't always a shit in public restrooms. But when I do, I use the handicapped stall.

Hey, I'm the last man standing. I think I'll have another drink or two at the Hilton, across the street. Then go to bed.
