Weekend in Cleveland, Part 1

I had so much fun this weekend, I don’t even know where to begin…I think I’ll do this in installments. Let’s start with Friday.

Jen and I headed to Cleveland Friday afternoon, set for dinner at Cheesecake Factory followed by a night of fun at Howl at the Moon! We met Jen, Tim, and the other Jen and went off for dinner.

I think we had the most fun you could possibly have at dinner. Conversation somehow turned towards a rousing game of “Who’d ya f***” plus a list of people you would never, ever even think about, under any circumstances. (Examples: Newman from Seinfeld, Carrot Top, John Malkovich…)

I am somewhat afraid of what our waitress thought. 😉

Dinner was outstanding, and the Dulce de Leche cheescake was heaven on a plate.

Following dinner, Jen and I met Susan, Tracy and Stephanie at the piano bar, where we finally got to see Stephanie’s #1 piano-playing crush, Billy. Was not hard to see why…cute, funny, great voice. They did a version of “Picture” in which Billy sang the Sheryl Crow part. That was hilarious. The night was filled with the requisite number of bachelorettes and slutty chicks dancing on stage. One of the bachelorettes, Courtney, was wearing a red halter top that I was sure she was going to bounce right out of and a white fisherman’s hat that said “Bride” on it. (she looked shockingly similar to the blonde hoochie from our first trip to the piano bar, except the original whore was much thinner, and thereby more Britney-esque). Courtney was on stage no less than five times. Stephanie dropped a $20 to come up on stage and sing her favorite song, which she did quite well until Billy looked at her and she forgot the words. 😉

We went back to Stephanie’s, piled into her king-size bed, and stayed up much too late chatting. By the way? Stephanie’s bedroom is roughly the size of Connecticut.

Coming up, Jen, Erin and Susan take on Ashland, Ohio and then storm the Celtic Thunder stage. Stay tuned!
