Introduction and Recent Absence
00:00:05
Speaker
events. Wait, what? She said, Oh, my gosh. Well, Alexa, you have to go in order of events. And my event is a Saturday event. My thing is a Saturday after brunch thing. Save your thoughts. Okay. Hi, guys. We've been gone for two weeks. And I just want to say what a two weeks it has been. It has. The weeks have really been weakened here recently. What a time we had.
00:00:35
Speaker
Well, let's do should we start with what this week has done and then go into the bachelorette trip. I mean, I mean, having our winter storm.
Winter Storm Adventures
00:00:48
Speaker
Yeah, because surprisingly, only like 80% of the people who listen to this podcast don't live in Texas. Okay, no.
00:00:55
Speaker
They don't know that we're in snow. Well, I won't say snow, but we're in a storm, but it's not snow. It's just straight up ice. Like I was outside today. I'm like, this is just, this is actual like dead. This is ice. I know I slipped and fell today when we were coming back. I let Toto outside today and like he got to the grass and he did his business and then he was trying to find his way back, but he kept slipping and he couldn't walk. And so he just started barking like crazy.
00:01:22
Speaker
No, no, Von, Von was on the patio and I let her out. Girlfriend was ice skating. She's in there. She's trying to turn around and get back inside. She's slipping and sliding because our whole patio is dead ice. Yeah, it's bad. Oh, well, we went to Target today, so that was my, my, my one chance to slip and fall.
00:01:48
Speaker
I got tricked into going into going into work. Y'all family businesses are always family businesses.
00:01:58
Speaker
You are always gonna somehow be tricked. And so now I was sitting up at the office making phone calls. Hi, this is Casey. Yeah, I'm calling to reschedule your appointment. Uh-huh. Yeah, how about this day? Oh, you want a morning? Uh-huh. This is my next morning. Oh, you don't want that morning? Okay, no problem, no problem. How about this day? This day, is that good? Yeah, I can get, yeah, yeah, 10 30, 10 30. We'll see you then. Okay, bye-bye, have a good day.
Family Business Frustrations and Wedding Preparations
00:02:28
Speaker
I made that call about 30 times. At least you're getting paid. I'm sitting there on the, but I'm sitting there getting all the tea because shoot, I was up there. When I tell you, when I tell you I would not let some of these people talk to me, how they be talking to each other.
00:02:48
Speaker
Because one thing about it, my mama is y'all's boss. Y'all ain't gonna be talking to me any crazy way. And second thing, I'm grown and I'm not stupid. Y'all not gonna be talking to me anyway. They just be, ooh. I couldn't do it. I couldn't do it. I got a lot of wedding stuff done. I spray painted the mirrors. Ew. I spray painted the frames. I made seven t-shirts.
00:03:18
Speaker
Ooh, can we see Ward? Uh, yeah, that's pretty much all I did. I'll go grab it real quick so y'all talk. Okay. I've been working, you know, just like normal. Ha ha, Rehman has a job where she can work from home. So, yeah. Lots of team's calls. Love that for you. On the, on the first no day, y'all, I got, I got trapped at work.
00:03:46
Speaker
Yeah, why didn't you drive to work? Because my parents wouldn't let me. So my brother had to take me. So then I had to eat my lunch in our admin building and I had my AirPods in and I was watching The
Work and Winter Challenges
00:04:00
Speaker
Last of Us. If y'all haven't seen it, it's so good but I was watching The Last of Us. But there's a scene in The Last of Us where there are titties on the screen.
00:04:11
Speaker
And I didn't know about that. Sorry, I'm gonna cut you off. There's a very good chance that some of these aren't centered, but that's okay. No, just don't look to us. It's okay. But there's a scene in Last of Us where this lady is like dead and her titties are on the screen and like a little bit of her coochie. And I didn't know that. And I'm, I'm in the, I'm at work and it pop up. I go, let me put on box burgers. And then I got my headphones there and my boss walks up behind me and she started trying to make small talk.
00:04:39
Speaker
And I had to take out one of my AirPods and I'm like, and she's like, cause like no one eats inside cause we're not really allowed to. And she's like, where are you? I'm like, oh, I had, I had, someone had to drop me off at work today. So I can't eat my corn. And then as soon as I got back from lunch, they're like, oh yeah, we closing in like an hour. And I'm like, y'all made me take a lunch to close in an hour, but okay. Oh, we closed at noon. I didn't even like get to the lunch portion. I was just like,
00:05:08
Speaker
Well, I guess let me go ahead and scan all of this stuff before. No, we were planning on it. Nope. I had my mandatory brunch and I came back in and they're like, yeah, uh, uh, all, all client pickup is happening by 12 45. But my client didn't get picked up until one 45 and my parents didn't come and pick me up until two.
Bachelorette Party Planning and Excitement
00:05:28
Speaker
So it was just me and one of the VCVAs up in there talking about our dogs. And I was like, how rude would it be if I put my headphones in whenever there was a lull?
00:05:39
Speaker
And I just popped them in. And then our neighbor brought us Girl Scout cookies, so then we were eating Girl Scout cookies. They were adventurefuls. Adventurefuls are kind of, they're so good. I bought three packs on my Sunday. I haven't had a chance to get some. Is it Girl Scout season? Yes, I haven't had a chance to get any though. I need to get my lemonade. Yep, I got some lemonades.
00:06:07
Speaker
I need that and some Thin Mints. I got Thin Mints. And then I got this French toast one. Oh, I didn't like that one. Oh, I didn't like them either. It's not my favorite. It's a blue package. It's green. It's like lime green, right? I don't remember. They're shaped like little toast, though, right? Mm-hmm. No. No. But adventurefuls are so good. They're like brownie. They're like a hard cookie with caramel in the center.
00:06:37
Speaker
Well, yeah, that's why you're wearing snow. But let's get to what we've been teasing. Y'all like that Instagram post? And the story pic of us doing our fingers crossed. Oh, I remember that. Yeah, I felt like we needed to do something. But OK, let's start off on Friday. Or should we talk about the night before?
00:07:07
Speaker
What happened the night before? We made a cake. We did make a cake, and everyone loved it. Everyone loved it. Y'all would have thought me and Raven was like the ace of cakes or somebody. And y'all, they were tearing that cake. They were saying, oh my god, it's so moist, it's so delicious. And nobody was intoxicated at that point. Yeah, that was just people appreciating a good slice of cake.
00:07:37
Speaker
What else? Oh, we have cookies. Shout out to my exterior coach. Yeah, they were so good. They were delish. I think they did have almond extract in it, so they did make me a little itchy, but I still ate them. Told you. I told you. They were so good. They didn't listen. They have made mine. I have it. No, mine is at the fridge at work. I'm so disappointed. OK, after that, Friday morning, we got up. We got up way too early, first of all.
00:08:07
Speaker
And we packed all of our stuff and hit the road. Yeah. We hit the road very early for the time that we were supposed to be there, which is 4 p.m. That's true. And y'all, I just got to say, I have a beef with Be Real now.
00:08:25
Speaker
because I posted my Be Real every day. And if you look at my Be Real compared to what we were doing, y'all would have thought that was the most boring weekend of my life. That's why I deleted Be Real. That's literally why. My Be Real for that weekend is bookstore tattoo on the way home. Sorry. I was going to say, the tattoo, that was pretty fun. But it wasn't even at the shop. It was like back at the house. Oh, OK.
00:08:55
Speaker
We drove to, oh, did we say we were going to Austin here? We drove to Waco, and then we had lunch. Waco. Nice little Chick-fil-A. Nice little Chick-fil-A. I was very busy. First of all, if you're ever in Waco, why do they have so many food places? It's a small town. Yeah, like... Actually pretty good ones too. Honestly, if I was a college kid, I'd be spending all my money on my... If you've never seen me on campus.
00:09:23
Speaker
right dutch bros uh hto all they need is a swig like i thought uta was doing it with mo's but oh or bamboo chopsticks do you remember bamboo chopsticks yeah i oh i used to tear up bamboo chopsticks they're fried rice because it used to be huge and i've eaten fried rice for like three days
00:09:52
Speaker
see i want to go back to modes but the closest one to us is in waco well no the closest one to us is uta but then the next one is waco and they're all on college really i thought the next one was in dallas oh in texadelphia yeah all right they had good cheese fries texadelphia yes good cheese fries their cheese steaks
00:10:17
Speaker
Both look so good. Yeah. And you want to know, if Texas was like up just a little bit farther than right under where I lived, I wouldn't have gone there that much. Because there was like a wing place on the other side. My sophomore year, I never went to. But I was a regular at Texas and Pi Five. I was tearing up a magic Monday deal. And then Panera got put in.
00:10:48
Speaker
I wish they had their charge lemonades back when I was in college. I would have been. Okay. Y'all wouldn't have seen me without one. After we went to Chick-fil-A, we then went to Austin. Yeah. The trip was out. It felt like such a quick trip.
00:11:08
Speaker
I tried to prove myself because Raven and Alexis were clowning me for always falling asleep, which is why they made me sit in the backseat. But I told them the reason I always sit in the backseat, no the reason I always fall asleep is because they usually make me sit in the backseat. And in the backseat, you can't hear the conversation very well because like music is playing and they don't be talking loud enough. So then there's nothing to do but fall asleep. Did you fall asleep at all?
00:11:37
Speaker
I fell asleep like the last 15 minutes. On the way there or the way back? On the way there. I didn't fall asleep on the way back. Oh, wow.
Austin Road Trip and Airbnb Troubles
00:11:45
Speaker
Okay, then we get there and we realize, oh, we can't check in until 4 p.m., which I still don't understand why we couldn't just have gone in. There's no cameras now that we've been up there. They do have that Google Home that was hidden in the back, though. They do. Well, then he would have figured it out because we couldn't get into the Airbnb. We have to ask them for the code. That's the wrong code.
00:12:06
Speaker
But yes, while we were waiting, I had the brilliant idea to get a tattoo. But of course, the tattoo shop was closed. We went to a bookstore. We went to the plant store. And HEB. And HEB, which was an adventure. We should have just bought all the groceries then, but you know what? I'm over it. No, we'll get to that part later. OK, because I got a beef with that trip. So at that time, I think
00:12:35
Speaker
It was like what, three, 40? We only like 20 minutes. We sat in the car, then we went up, got into the Airbnb, you know, a few kick-ups. Oh, we did go to a coffee shop. We did go to the coffee shop. That was before AGB. Subpar cold brew. That's all I'm going to say. The tea was pretty good. Subpar. But yeah, so then we went back, we got into the Airbnb finally, you know, unpacked all of our tings, unloaded the car.
00:13:02
Speaker
waited for everybody else to get there. So then we could all load up and go to HEB to get groceries for that night. We were planning on making tacos. Yeah. So wait, what did you say? I said accept me and Casey. Oh yeah. Cause they were decorating. Yeah. We stayed back to decorate. Yeah. Okay. So we went to HEB to get the stuff for the tacos and you can, you, okay. Now that they've said it,
00:13:28
Speaker
You can tell that we went to the grocery store hungry because we came out with more stuff than what was necessary. I gave y'all a list. Way more stuff than what was necessary. Me, Kalyn, and Kai were on alcohol duty because we were doing a pedal bike the next day. We'll get into that. So we were picking the alcohol for that, and then we left some other people in charge to go get the stuff with tacos. Probably a bad mistake on my part because, you know,
00:13:55
Speaker
extra people like extra tacos. Okay. And that's a fact. I'm just saying I do tortilla, meat, cheese, sour cream. Pause. Let me re do that for you. It's a tortilla, a teaspoon of taco meat, a pound of cheese, a glob of sour cream,
00:14:15
Speaker
When I tell you, we were talking about how much cheese to get, Raven said, I could have some pack on my own. I said, I could do half a pack on two tacos. I mean, at least I gave all the heads up. Yeah, and we bought three bags of cheese just for you. Oh, and then we also had queso. Yeah, I don't know understand why we needed black beans.
00:14:42
Speaker
but they were there i don't i don't understand why we needed pizza rolls everything that came in tubs was still there at the end the pizza rolls in the nuggets they weren't a part of the grocery bill that i sent that was bought separately by somebody else yeah but um but it still makes it to out of your mind oh because well to be honest i think we all
00:15:11
Speaker
you know, be gone by the
Culinary Adventures: Tacos and Queso
00:15:13
Speaker
end of the night. They weren't. And that was gonna be like our lunch option for the next day. But again, they weren't, so. I remember we didn't eat them a second time, so that's fine. Yeah. But yes, there's a lot of toppings for the tacos, and I'm really like a two-topping type of girl. You know, maybe some cheese sometime, a little shredded lettuce, and some sour cream. Okay, I just gotta say. Oh, and some cilantro, I do love that. I am a pico girly.
00:15:41
Speaker
I didn't ask for it. Like I could I could do I do enjoy it when it is offered. I did not ask for it. It was not a mandatory thing. But I do like Pico on my tacos. And I did put Pico on my tacos every time every chance I got and also cilantro. Like I don't need it. But it was there. Yeah, it was like, Oh, it's there. I don't understand why you can chop it ourselves. But that's also okay. Um, yeah, and I'm also not a salsa girl on tacos unless it's made by my mom. Maybe that's just because I'm a little
00:16:11
Speaker
I didn't like that salsa on the tacos. Oh, I didn't try it. It didn't hit. I'm also not a guac person on tacos either. Yeah, me neither. And also- Can I play slowly? Yes. It was like a cold cup blast at the end of the weekend. Yeah, and nobody claimed it, so yes, I did throw it away. I didn't know you were going to play slowly. I'm also not like a toppings person when it comes to queso as well. Sour cream at best. Jalapenos, but you didn't get jalapenos. Maybe some salsa.
00:16:38
Speaker
I freaking love nachos. Actually, no. There was chopped jalapenos. I did not see any jalapenos. There was chopped jalapenos unless she poured them all in the queso. She bought chopped jalapenos. Oh, I'm talking about, like, so, like, chopped up into, like, tiny little pieces. Yeah. I mean, I know you're talking about slices, but, um, yeah. I can taste them in there. You know what? Neither can I. Um, I also really couldn't taste them. You know what? Let me go talk about everybody right here. Um, I'll save that one for... You can taste that beer, though.
00:17:08
Speaker
Stop. Yeah. Yeah. They reheated it. And I'm sitting there. And I have brought some into Raven and I's room to eat. Because I was also trying to wash something on my phone. Because I was like, I need to be alone for two seconds before these run me crazy. And so I was eating it. And I was like, does my finger taste weird? Or is it the queso? And I'm like, it's probably just like my finger. Or these chips got a little stale. Because I was using Doritos.
00:17:38
Speaker
And then they come in and they're like, do you taste it? I'm like, what? It's like, does it taste different? I'm like, it tastes a little weird, but I kind of thought it was like either my finger or the chips. And they go, we poured beer in it. Yeah. They poured a Miller Lite high life in there. And then they didn't cook it no more. So the alcohol didn't cook off. That's not how y'all make beer cheese. I was not in charge of putting it back in the oven. So that's not on me, but it was my beer.
00:18:08
Speaker
So yeah, we made the tacos. No, as we were at HGB, we finished checking out and everything. We forgot tortillas, so we had to send somebody back in there to get tortillas. Then we all went to the liquor store next door. Yes, Raven? I'm just saying, I texted you saying to bring us towels when y'all got home. And it took y'all like three hours to do that whole grocery run, just saying. We came to Air Dry. We had to Air Dry. I was sitting out there butt booty naked.
00:18:38
Speaker
Yeah. Okay. We're going to get into that part next. Um, so we went to the liquor store, bought everybody's alcohol because we were having a drink charcuterie competition after, um, after that we had to go to Target, um, to get outfits because not everybody packed accordingly to their itinerary, which is, you know, it's literally basically nobody did.
00:18:59
Speaker
I'm just saying, you know, this was Alexis was my coach about what I was going to wear. And you know what? I should have sent reminder emails about what you were on this day. And this is what you were on this day. But I was like, no, people are going to look at that itinerary. I worked so hard to make. No, they didn't. So we went to Target, but we didn't even go to Target to get outfits. They went to Rainbow. So while they were in Rainbow, me and Lauren went to go get towels for y'all.
00:19:30
Speaker
They were still in rainbow. They closed. There was only one person working. So we really can't fault her for taking six hours to check everybody out. Then we finally make it back to the Airbnb. Y'all are already dressed. Which I was kind of like, why did I have to get towels? Well, because we sat there for like 30 minutes air drying. Yeah, making out would have been bad because it had been two hours when we hopped in the shower.
00:19:55
Speaker
You should have asked how much longer do you think I'm gonna be. We looked at y'all's location and then we thought y'all were coming towards us. Y'all were like moving. We were going to Target. Yeah. Yeah. And then we come back. Everyone's getting dressed into their outfits. I should really post that TikTok. I made them all dress like me from when they first met me. So that was pretty fun. Some people delivered. Some people subpar delivered.
00:20:25
Speaker
Okay. And now, um, what me and Raven were doing while they were doing all that nonsense. So we were blowing up balloons and we were hanging stuff on the walls and we were like, okay, this is Airbnb. We got to care about their walls. We don't want to be charged extra. Let's get wall safe tape. But when we got in there and looked at the walls and we were looking at them, we like, we did not have to care about these people's walls. Chips.
00:20:53
Speaker
And that tape was so bad. Y'all, me and Raven were fighting for our lives against these balloons. At one point, we're blowing them up. And Raven goes, what is it supposed to say? And I thought it was supposed to say, what was it supposed to say? Last rodeo?
00:21:10
Speaker
Yeah, I thought it was supposed to say last rodeo. Raven looks at the letters and starts saying, Casey, this says happy birthday. No, H, no, B to B, C. And she goes, no, look, B, R, I. So I'm going through my
Party Decorations and Financial Discussions
00:21:29
Speaker
email. I'm going, no, it doesn't say happy birthday. It can't say happy birthday.
00:21:33
Speaker
It ended up saying brides last ride. Were y'all the only ones doing this or was Michaela there too? She wasn't there at this point. She wasn't there at this point. So then we get back to blowing them up. Raven, we are trying to blow up these complicated balloons. Raven's sitting there about to send herself into an asthma attack using a little straw to blow up these big balloons.
00:21:57
Speaker
And while we're doing it, we're just talking. I really don't remember what we were talking about. We were talking about something we had just found out before everyone left. We found that out then. Yeah, we found that out then. We found that out then. I thought we found that out later in the night. They were all sitting around tables. They were eating our cake. I thought they were asking her. Is that what we learned about?
00:22:27
Speaker
Yeah. That's what we learned about that. OK, then that's what we were talking about. Y'all didn't see all these hand motions because like protestant, the people, but.
00:22:38
Speaker
Yeah, but so that's what we were talking about. Me and Raven, we sitting there, chat, chat, chatting, you know, and blowing up. And then I get to like a letter A and we're talking and blowing it up. This thing pucks so violently and like obnoxiously loud. And we stop and we sit in there and we go, we'll just tape it up to the wall. And that we did.
00:23:03
Speaker
but yeah and then uh one of the other bridesmaids shows up and she shows up you know and we're and we're like talking and we're like oh you need to go put your parking pass on the thing so she takes the parking pass she goes back down and after a while me and Rem were like we shouldn't let her go back down there by herself it's she's been gone for a little too long and we were just talking about how creepy the parking garage is and prom for somebody getting snatched i was like let me call her
00:23:30
Speaker
she'd all answer let me call her one more time if she answered if she is at you I'm like babe we thought we were about to have to explain to the police how we were bad friends please a little warning next time but
00:23:53
Speaker
I should have mentioned that because at this point I'm kind of used to it that she'll just come in and pop out. So like it doesn't faze me at this point. It happened a lot during the trip. It did. And every time it surprised me. Every time I'd be like, she could be back. But yeah, we came back. But yeah, very long grocery trip. But yeah, they came back. And when I tell you, so they came back, but they had sent the prices of everything before they came back.
00:24:23
Speaker
You would have thought me and Raven were on extreme couponers. We were sitting there with money on groceries. Me and Raven are breaking out calculators if each of us has been to $35.94. I'm just saying. It's OK. When I saw the receipt, I was like, what did y'all buy?
00:24:53
Speaker
over $200 for one dinner in some alcohol. I mean, like, I know HEB is somewhat expensive-ish. You get a tired than Walmart, but, like, I should have kept the receipt and then divided what I wanted and what I didn't want it and what was on the listing versus what was not on the listing, which could have divided the payments by that. But I didn't even think about that. I was just like, oh my goodness, I'm just split this all up. Tell everybody.
00:25:22
Speaker
And to be quite honest, not everybody paid me back, so... Not everybody what? It's a little late. Wait, who do they pay you? I'm missing this from a couple people. Or just... Wasn't me? Emphasize it. Um, I know Raven paid me. I don't know if you did because you were already gone. Gone where? Gone where?
00:25:53
Speaker
like win no i paid you the first night yes oh okay um but yeah i think three people did it but it's okay i'll deduct two people from that list because they fed us the next night so i have no problem with that one who? Kaylin and Kai yeah they bought they bought the pretzels they bought the pizza yeah yeah they made sure we were fed basically the whole entire day so i'll let that one slide
00:26:22
Speaker
Um, and I think they bought a lot of the alcohol. So I'll be fine with that one. And if really push comes to shove, I can get $20 in the mini day. Um, what else was that? Oh, we got to talk about the drink charcuterie. Yeah. So it was kind of a fail on our part. Yeah. No one recorded. I mean, it was a cute, it was a cute drink. Yeah.
00:26:53
Speaker
It didn't taste good. Oh, you didn't like how ours tasted? No. You didn't like the like mango, coconut vibe? Yeah, I don't like it. And I was so sad because literally today on TikTok, I saw the cutest and what looked like the most delicious drink ever. And it was called the Electric Lemonade. That sounds good. We literally, and you know how bad I wanted to use Pink Whitney just to like shake things up? Yeah.
00:27:23
Speaker
And it used like lemonade vodka, lemonade, and it used blue Corso. And, and topped it with Sprite. Next time, cause I still have it and I really use it because. Okay. We'll just, we'll just be on our mixologist stuff. Like we'll just be. Yeah. But I split everybody up into teams. Casey made everybody aprons. We had a little drink competition.
00:27:47
Speaker
Raven in case he lost, in case anybody was wondering. OK, technically we got second, because ours is definitely better than K-Link eyes. Yeah, I want to know why that was such a flop. Thank you. It was a strawberry syrup they put in there. OK. I think it messed with the consistency in the bowl. Oh, no, actually. But yeah. Yeah, they got second. And then after that, we really didn't do much. Just a lot of.
00:28:15
Speaker
Yeah, we did karaoke. That was fun. We hit some Cheetah girls. Yeah, we did Cinderella. And then we all decided to go to bed. Some people did some other
Austin Adventures: Tattoos and Tours
00:28:28
Speaker
things. But the rest of us went to bed. And then the next morning, we woke up bright and early, bushy-tailed, ready to go to brunch in our matching sweatshirts. And I just want to say, shout out to the Airbnb, those blackout curtains.
00:28:44
Speaker
We're blacking out. I woke up at seven o'clock in the morning, sun high in the sky. I thought it was three o'clock in the morning. It was so dark. So for all of these pictures will be uploaded tomorrow for the post, by the way. For brunch, me, Raven, and Casey made everybody matching sweatshirts. And that was it. Oh, if you can tell by now, the theme was kind of like glass rodeo.
00:29:13
Speaker
Disco Cowgirl, like a mix between all of that. And so, oh yeah, I got a free shot too. We're not posting that video. I got a job I'd like to keep. What was I gonna say? Oh, actually I don't know anymore. So we'll skip that. We got to brunch, you know, One Bridesmaid was missing. Like parking was $27.
00:29:40
Speaker
Absolutely absurd. Absolutely absurd to park in Austin. Austin is on crack. Like literally, it's like either park a mile away and walk or pay. We could have. I was down to walk, actually. I'd rather walk than spend $27 on parking person, but it seemed like the other people in the car didn't want to. That's true. I was also down to walk. Like I saw a parking garage like two blocks away.
00:30:07
Speaker
Y'all should have told me. That the two people who kind of, you know, act the same. Hey, three out of five, we would have been good at that and we would have won. All I'm saying is, but then we definitely know people would have caught an attitude. And it's like, do you want to deal with that? Sometimes some of the funds, that $5 is way better than dealing with somebody's attitude for the next 45 minutes. Not even 45 minutes, the whole day.
00:30:38
Speaker
So yeah, so we paid for parking. Yeah, still, but like people would be trying to act like you poor just because you don't want to spend money. That is a weird thing to spend money on. I'm sorry. We're not in the business of acting poor. Some of us have big purchases coming up. I have a whole wedding to fund. Raven has a wedding to fund. Casey has an apartment she's about to move into. We got this kind of money to just be parking for $30.
00:31:05
Speaker
And if you do, we need to have a sit down conversation because who's spending $30 to park? Yeah. I'm not, I'm not freaking Mark Cuban for Caitlin and Kai too, because I just spent $30 on my car alone. I know. I know. I thought about that. Yeah. I thought about that. Um, and one person didn't even pay to park. She just parked her car there. So we went to brunch at, I don't even know how to pronounce this place. Takiero mucho. That's where we're going to go with. That's where we're going to go with. Um, it's like,
00:31:35
Speaker
a pink themed taco place, and like even the taco shells are pink. So we sat down, we ordered drinks, got some waters, then we ordered brunch, lunch, whatever you wanna call it. I got the birria tacos with cheese. Gotta specify that now. Oh, sorry, excuse me, queso birria tacos. Honestly, that specifies that there's cheese. I got chicken and waffles. I got the queso birria tacos. Yeah.
00:32:04
Speaker
Um, there were some hiccups with brunch, but that's okay. You know, it wasn't a split check situation. It was a you pay altogether. Glad someone had the brilliant idea to say, this is what you pay for because you ordered this. Because if not, I was really about to divide that check and be like, this is how much everybody else is one person.
00:32:23
Speaker
Then after that, they gave me a free shot. Yeah, they brought out a little thing. This is watermelon. Tell me at first, they like started coming out with their stuff and they were shaking a little like a bell. And we're all turning around. We're like, oh my god, is this someone's birthday? And they roll up on our table. And we were like, huh? Yeah, like what is going on? But it was actually a really good shot. And then after that, we paid. And we went to go take pictures outside.
00:32:53
Speaker
And then a little bit. Yeah. And then also Casey got her footprint on my pants. I just want that to be known. Actually, that's literally her fault. I was raising my foot in the middle. And she walked directly into my foot stops in the middle. Someone who was about to trip and needed to fix their pants. Oh, well, anyways, so we get back in the car. I asked where the closest tattoo shop was. We found one. We drove to one.
00:33:24
Speaker
Um, I got a cowboy boots or a pair of cowboy boots with the cowboy hat on top to commemorate this disco cowboy last rodeo bachelorette trip. Um, someone else got a matching tattoo with me and then Lauren got a cowboy hat tattoo. Casey, tell us what you got.
00:33:42
Speaker
I got a little frog in a car and he has his tongue out because he's got places to go and he's stuck in traffic. His name is Rico. Rico, nasty, no relation, but I love him. And so I showed my friend, I showed my friend him and she looks at me and she goes, is that fake? And I go, no. She goes, you're messing with me. That's fake. I'm like,
00:34:11
Speaker
No. And she goes, Why would you get that? Why would you not? I'm like, he makes me happy when I look at him because he's just so silly. And she goes, Okay, and that's like basically y'all is basically the same thing. My dad because my dad has never even seen the one on my ribs. But he saw this one because I was putting aquifer on it and he looks he looks at my ankle. He looks at me he goes, you got a tattoo. And I'm like, Yeah,
00:34:39
Speaker
He goes, what is it? I'm like, it's a little frog in a car. He goes, Casey, why? I'm like, he makes me happy to look at him. Anybody who knows, you know that that is like a perfect representation of a tattoo for you, though. And you can't be like, I can't say anything. You can say it makes me happy. That's just like. Yeah. Yeah. Imagine if I'm like, it makes me happy to look at it. That's dumb. And then Raven, tell us what you got. I got a book with some flowers.
00:35:08
Speaker
yeah very raven um oh what are you doing like literally i'm thinking about like going somewhere and getting this tattoo colored in like having been like a little in like a little red car and like have them paint it green interesting okay and then after tattoos we had to race home to get dressed for the next event which was a selfie museum we had to change outfits because of course i made everybody wear specific colors to specific events so this next
00:35:39
Speaker
outfit theme was till death because changing my last name, therefore sad. Half of us went to a different location of a selfie museum. Which was crazy because I was asked at the tattoo parlor, Casey, what's the name of the place? I said, oh, the selfie galleries. They said, oh, okay, meet you there. They did not meet us there.
00:36:08
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. So four of us were at the selfie museum, taking pictures, waiting for everyone else to come. It was actually very fun. Lots of different options to take pictures. We got some really good podcast photos for content. If you follow us on Instagram, which I don't know why you, why you aren't, that could have been a dot podcast. Um, we did post one on our story Monday. So that was, that was pretty lit.
00:36:38
Speaker
Wait, what'd you say? I said that's gone now. Oh, yeah. Yeah. I mean, if you're lucky, it may come back. It may make it into the photo dump. I just got to say, y'all, our photo dump, one of the pictures of my photo dump is that is my absolute favorite picture of the three of us. We look so happy and so carefree. Is it the one that I think you're talking about where you're holding your hair?
00:37:03
Speaker
Y'all I have literally like me raving on Alexis. It looks like there's nothing you could tell us that could ruin our mood we look so happy We look like the epitome of Yeah, we are in our we are in our 20s. We are out on the streets. We are having fun
00:37:30
Speaker
Oh, well, actually we can get into that now because the selfie museum was pretty self-explanatory. You know, take pictures, take cute pictures, blah, blah, blah, blah. We went back, we got ready. No, what did we do? That was whenever the beer cheese happened. Oh, we ate tacos. Then we got dressed for the next outfit change, which was disco, all pink, pretty much, cowboy-esque. And when I went to the bottle bike tour, my outfit,
00:38:01
Speaker
killed literally stepped on next slate the house down yeah i got i got some bathroom compliments that night i tell you i did the most cringy thing that us people like what you do okay well okay y'all this was never we were at um at the gay bar the first one we went to i don't remember which one we went to but we were in the bathroom and at the gay bar they were sitting on the sink
00:38:27
Speaker
No. Oh. That was not a gay bar that I did that at. But this bathroom was like packed. And so I was standing in line and they had like a completely gender neutral bathroom. And so I was standing in line and there were these gay dudes behind me. And one of them, he was so pretty, he had like a blonde quiff. He like had like little Harry Potter glasses. And he goes, at first he goes, oh my gosh, I love your outfit. And I couldn't hear him the first time I go, what?
00:38:53
Speaker
He goes, I like your outfit. I go, oh my gosh, thank you. I go, look, look, look. Start by Amazon, pants by Fashion Nova, shoes by Covers, jacketed by my friend, and a hat by Burning Gray, and then I ran into the bathroom. I have to pee. I have an I-zone. That is so embarrassing. That is so embarrassing. Y'all, why did I turn into a TikTok?
00:39:21
Speaker
I turned into a TikTok and a compliment? I couldn't just say, oh my God, thank you. I said, I said, I said, I have no thoughts right now TikTok. That's a little crunchy. Was I with you? I was alone. I don't know. You wouldn't have let her do that. Because I was in the bathroom too. I wasn't in a stall yet though. This may be a different situation because I know we went to the bathroom together.
00:39:48
Speaker
I don't know, I don't know who's in bathroom with me, but I did that and then I went and peed and I came back out and then we left. Oh, okay. Well, so beginning of that, the nighttime, we went, got onto a pedal bike tour. Yeah. Shout out to Rory. Loved him. Y'all, y'all. We should've like given him our business card. Y'all, I could just let this, that night, cause y'all woulda, y'all woulda ganged up on me. Yes, we, I figured he was your type. Um, no.
00:40:21
Speaker
I played it cool. Did you? Should we talk about my attitude? Oh my god, y'all. First of all, when we first got on that pedal bike, me and Raven were fighting for our lives to change the vibe. Y'all were literally
00:40:39
Speaker
Y'all were pissing me off. I was like, y'all, we have been through too much today to end this night like this. Me and Raven are trying to curate playlists. I'm sitting there feeding songs to the person controlling the music. We sitting there trying to sing and like. Let me just, you know what? I'm going to say it. The person who was controlling the music made me upset. Therefore, I didn't want to do anything at that point because I was like, well, might as well go home.
00:41:05
Speaker
The energy was just not there, but we knew you would regret it. Yeah. Yeah. And we were like, that's what I'm like, that's what we need to change the tide and what changed. So then we're like playing music and we're like, Oh my God, this is lame. What are we going to do? What are we going to do? And so then we hear our first stop and he's like, this place has a good green tee shot. And I go, we're getting green tee shots.
00:41:29
Speaker
So we all go to this bar.
Night Out and Emotional Reflections
00:41:33
Speaker
I immediately, I go up to the bar, I'm like three green tee shots right now, three. And he goes, okay. And so then he brings us a shot. I pass him out, you know, we do our little thing. And then Alexis got her first free drink of the night. Yeah, I can't remember his name, but he called us names. His name was Chad. Oh my God, this man, if he could, y'all, if he,
00:41:59
Speaker
I bet you he was holding back in his mind from saying the word Nubian. The way he was saying it, he goes, oh queens, what we celebrating tonight? And I'm pretty sure he was straight, which made the queen feel worse. And then he's like, oh queen, you're getting married? Because he was like, what's going on? We're like, oh, it's her bachelor. He was like, oh my god. And then he's like, what is she drinking? And we're like, oh, green tea shot. And he goes, I'll be like, two green tea shots.
00:42:25
Speaker
And so I'm like, Alexis, someone just bought you a shot. I need you to be ready to take it. Cause he is coming. And she's like, okay. So then he comes, he goes, she goes, are you going to take it with me? He's like, yeah. And they're like, oh, he goes, so queen wins the day. And yeah.
00:42:43
Speaker
And then we got out of there. And what did we do next? We went to the next spot. The second bar is the same place as the last bar we went to. Yeah, the second bar is the same place as the last. Yeah, we got a white tee shot. Yeah, a white tee shot. And then we went back onto the pedal bike. And by then I was like, you know what? I'm good. Last. That is not true. We did like four more shots that night. I don't even know why she said that. I could have stopped the barrier. Actually, I didn't like.
00:43:13
Speaker
I think I ended the night with like eight. Yeah. Yeah. But okay, so we got back onto the pedal bike. Where was our next stop? Was that the place with the slide? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Wait, say that again. Wait, the slide the same place with the helmet and then we got the food? Yeah, the circus one. Okay. Yeah, so we go down there. There's a bar with the slide. We go down the slide. It's a lot of fun.
00:43:43
Speaker
uh we played a little uh they had like a little like basketball thing and they went and they had helmets with like dildos on them and they put them on i went to go pee again
00:43:55
Speaker
because I said, we gonna keep on going places, so I might as well pee whenever I can. And then we ate some food and Alexis requested the cha-cha slide. So we were doing the cha-cha slide when nobody in this bar, but we were doing the cha-cha slide. I was holding a mozzarella stick during the cha-cha slide. At one point, there was just ranch on the mozzarella stick and I hadn't even taken a bite of vegan. And that pretzel was hitting. Oh yeah, and I got to take now one of my favorite photos of me with a pretzel in my mouth.
00:44:25
Speaker
I have my sunglasses on. It is one of my favorite photos. It is now a staple on all my dating profiles. Maybe you should send that to us so we can determine if you should put that on your dating profiles. I mean, I can show you the picture. I look cute. OK. Interesting. There's a pretzel in your mouth. OK. I mean, I guess that works. What else happened?
00:44:53
Speaker
Oh, and then from there, did we get back onto the pedal bike? Or did we go somewhere else? Didn't we do the... We did the bull riding. No, after that was the bull riding. We did the bull riding. I wrote a bull. I fell off the bull. It was very embarrassing. Wait, was bull riding before or after the champagne in the section? After, I think. Okay, so then...
00:45:18
Speaker
So then we went to another bar and we ran into another bridal party and they were like, Oh my God, tell me you're getting married. They'll bring you like champagne and put you in a section. Wait, did we skip the pizza though? No, that was after. That was after bull riding and stuff. And pedal biking. So we finished the pedal biking before we did the bull ride. Yeah. No, no, no. We finished the pedal biking before we did the pizza. No, we didn't.
00:45:49
Speaker
we had to because we were at that pizza place for a while he would have left us because that's when we got off no he dropped i was still like kind of there when we finished the pedal bike oh i was too so and that was when we did the champagne the bull ride the pizza it was all after oh okay the champagne the bull ride and the pizza were all after the pedal bike yes i mean that makes more sense that makes a lot more sense in time wise
00:46:15
Speaker
So basically I got a free bottle of champagne bottle service. Great experience. Made a little mimosa. Then champagne was really good though. It was. It was hitting. Um, then we went and I wrote a bull. Couldn't get on the bull to save my life. Had to step on somebody to get on there. Fell off within a matter of three seconds. Um, then got off. Where did we go next? We got pizza.
00:46:38
Speaker
Sure. Sure. Alexis is throwing up. I'm watching that dress currently. And everyone was so, y'all, everyone was so mad at me that I didn't throw up. Oh yeah. I'm a puker. Like it's not like I, it's not like I don't like puking. So I like make myself not to like, I don't throw up. Like if I need to throw up, I'm throwing up and nothing's stopping me. But if I don't need to throw up, I don't need to throw up.
00:47:08
Speaker
Yeah, interesting. And everybody's like, you need to throw up. I'm like, I don't need to throw up. Like my body will tell me. Like 75% of the time. That's just because I got noodle limbs. I'm a noodle limb, I'm a noodle limb girly. I try not to be a noodle limb girly, but my limbs, noodles. But yeah, so we went and got pizza. I pushed over a lime scooter because it almost tripped me.
00:47:37
Speaker
Raven and Alexis, I came back from peeing. Raven and Alexis were crying and then it made me start crying because they're like, we're both getting married and you're not. What are you? And I'm like, why would y'all tell me that? Why would y'all ruin my mood like that? We never said that you were like not in a bad way. It was freaking married. I know. And you're not. Are you still going to want to be friends with us?
00:48:02
Speaker
I'm like I understand the context of what you but I was sitting there. I was on cloud 15 Vibe and y'all come back and y'all go we're getting married and you're not are you gonna hate us? I'm like I'm like are y'all gonna hate me? And now we're crying in each other's faces in public Everybody's looking at us being like are they?
00:48:27
Speaker
And they, it wasn't there, no, I'm gonna love you so much. We're like friends and. You know, I'm very surprised none of us put up a little, we're like, oh, if we could figure out how to do a boat hand signal, we would have been doing that. But yes, it was, oh, and then after the pizza, where'd we go? Back to the original place we went to? Maybe, I know that's where we ended the night.
00:48:53
Speaker
No, that is when we made that 11-minute walk because I wanted to go to a drag show, but there was none over. And that is where I fell twice. Why were y'all- It was already 11.45 and it started at 11.30. We weren't gonna make it. And I said, let's go anyway. And this was the street of the iconic picture.
00:49:13
Speaker
We literally look like we have no care in the world. Is this a place where they told me to take out everything out of my pockets? Yes, no. Okay, so... Okay, what place do we have to pay a cover charge?
00:49:24
Speaker
the same place where they made me take everything out of my pocket yeah oh my god and that was the same place where we were in line and there were some dudes talking to Kaylin and Kai and I like turned around and they're like oh yeah I'm Kai I'm Kaylin and I was like oh I'm Casey and he and I he I don't know if he put his hand out to shake my hand but I put my hand out like this and he kissed the back of my hand I actually flicked him in the nose because after he kissed the back of my hand I went
00:49:52
Speaker
This is also the place for me to like to start setting our address. What? I remember that! What? Why did y'all start doing that? Why were we talking about addresses? We were like, when I hit that drag, we can get ourselves home if we need to. Oh! Oh, okay, okay, okay. We were saying like, what's the address to get home?
00:50:17
Speaker
And then I remember, because at the end of my head, I was like, OK, there you have a bouncer. Let me act sober. So I put my hands behind my back like I was a little kid in line at school. And she was like, hands up. And I go, I stuck my arms up real straight. And they did the little thing. And I went in. And I was like, hello. And then she was like, it'll be this much. I'll be like, oh, it's for these people. And then I think I tipped, because there's always a little tip thing. Yes. Yes. That is where you tipped. You tipped 20%.
00:50:46
Speaker
I remember it like the same way. Yeah, I was like, she's hit 20%. That's a lot. Babe, I- Good job. Thank you for charging me to get into this club. Yes. Um, what was I gonna say? Oh, this is also the place where Raven took the IDs out of her pocket and was like, bam. She was like- She was like, okay, what are you talking about? And I was like- And she was like, my inhaler, and she was like, oh, you need that. Yeah.
00:51:14
Speaker
Yeah. But then after that, we went to the last place that we ended the night, which was the second bar we went to to begin with. And they were playing bangers. There were some things going on in that bathroom that I don't want to mention on here, just in case. Y'all. Y'all. And when I tell you, me and Raven thought Alexis was just being dramatic. And then we got the proof in the morning. Because I remember Raven sitting there being like, Alexis, Texas is. And I was like, huh? You didn't get me serious?
00:51:45
Speaker
No, Alexis. I was literally about to text when y'all couldn't get me. I'm scared. Y'all, we were all two sheets in the wind. I was like, they probably are not. And then I'm sitting there and like, I'm talking to like the bartender and he's sitting there. He's like, Oh baby girl, you are gone. And I'm like, I'm like, no, because you don't understand. I've only been doing this for like a year.
00:52:13
Speaker
I've only been doing this for a year. I'm not, I'm not, I'm not seasoned yet. And then they played kiss me through the phone. Oh yeah. And I, and one of our friends looked like she was falling asleep. So I was like, you can't be falling asleep. So I went over there and I started singing to her. No, someone did fall asleep. Oh.
00:52:30
Speaker
And so then I'm like singing to her. And then there was like one of the people that was like around us and he was like, how do you, and it gets to the six, seven, eight, triple nine, eight, two, one, two. And he's like, how do you know all of the numbers in the, and I'm like, I'm 22. I'm like, I'm 22. This, this was like my song. And he goes, I'm 31. And I go, I don't care about that. Kiss me through the phone. They should have played mindless behavior. And we really would have gotten that.
00:53:01
Speaker
Alexis, there was a DJ you requested it. 3.19. 6.0. 6.0. Yeah, I would have gotten that one. Smiley with the wink. I honestly probably would have requested Cha-Cha Slide again. I hope they would have told you no. We used to hate the days, make us do the Cha-Cha Slide every day in junior high. And now here go Alexis making us do it again.
00:53:29
Speaker
I don't even know why I want to touch on slide. Can you put the touch on slide on? Yeah, sure. I'm gonna go do my job. Okay. Hey, can you put the hoedown throw down on from High School Musical? That I would have said ice cream. No, I would have taken it one step further and said we're all in this together. High School Musical. Do the ice cream freeze, dry the pose, do the hip shake, shake it down low. Yeah.
00:53:51
Speaker
But yeah, they were playing Selena Gomez and stuff. And then we went home. One of our friends ordered a great chicken sandwich there. Yeah, we got in the Uber. We got in the Uber. I had an argument about the difference between a double cheeseburger and a McDouble.
00:54:07
Speaker
I remember apologizing to the Uber. That's the only thing I remember doing. So did I. I also remember feeding Kasey her McDouble while she was in bed crying about her AirPods and phone. Okay, and I feel like I need to explain to y'all why I now sleep like AirPods and noise all the time.
00:54:25
Speaker
It was because like a couple months ago I was having these crazy nightmares because I would stay up and I would just start thinking about stuff until I would like be so exhausted I would pass out and then what caused me to have a crazy nightmare. So then I started sleeping with something planned so I wouldn't be able to have my own thoughts and I'd just be able to think about that show.
00:54:48
Speaker
And so then my own thoughts would send me into a spiral of an insane nightmare. And it's not like people dying. It was like I was being chased by somebody. I was just in peril every night. It's not funny, but it's funny. And at the end of the trip, I was just too constantly inebriated to explain that. And I was like, I should probably explain this.
00:55:16
Speaker
But in that moment, it probably didn't matter. My brain was ready to shut off. Your brain was going to be completely off. It literally did not have time to think about nothing. But I was just like, routine, routine. So we doordashed McDonald's. That's basically it for that night. Then we wake up.
00:55:37
Speaker
We have to pack, clean, get ready to move out the Airbnb. They run out of trash bags, which is very inconvenient. And like, everyone was surprised that I was up at like seven o'clock in the morning. Y'all, it's life. Sometimes you just got to get up at seven o'clock in the morning after going to bed at like three and not remembering nothing from the past eight hours. So then we head to the place where we're getting permanent bracelets at.
00:56:08
Speaker
That car ride was very weird. So we do that. We eat at a great pizza place. I mean, I think it was like an eight out of 10 for me. I enjoyed it. It was actually pretty good. Yeah, it was. I ate at a pretty good Chinese spot. Dumplings were hitting. And then after that, we walked over to the place where we were getting the bracelets. We got the permanent bracelets.
00:56:31
Speaker
Then went to Louis Vuitton, watched somebody spend a lot of money, and that was basically it. Oh, and then we had to drop one of our friends off at the airport. And I did fall asleep during the car ride to the airport. Oh, I would have too. I would have too. Because that car ride was... Vibes were off, but it still was a good time.
Concluding the Trip and Future Plans
00:56:52
Speaker
There were no vibes. There were no vibes. Y'all just close.
00:56:59
Speaker
what are your job yes my job is closed so the location is we ain't gonna work but oh i'm gonna go in tomorrow like literally just close like and i'm not even being like i don't want to go to work because i do want to go to work because not having a week's worth of pay sounds horrendous but like nobody is gonna be there oh well anything else y'all want to add to this trick
00:57:32
Speaker
No? Yeah, no, I can't wait. We stopped at Bucky's on the way back. Yeah, we stopped at Bucky's. It was freaking packed. Every high school team in the state of Texas was there. I do want to say, I can't wait till you guys hear about, you know, Raven's Wellness Weekend, part two. Yeah, we're doing wellness shots. Also, Raven,
00:58:01
Speaker
I hope I don't have to take that Friday off. No offense. I'm running out of PTO. I didn't even look at the dates. I just picked one. I hope you picked the one that was halfway in June, in the beginning of July. Oh, I just did a little Friday through Sunday. Yeah, I know. But I'm taking almost two weeks off in July, and I want them to
