if your club smells like puke, some people might not want to stay there

earlier today, i noticed a bulletin on myspace. it was from arcie cola, one of the hosts from cookin' good, my favorite public access show here in austin. it said her and her sister/co-host, shasta cola, would be participating in a "drop dead gorgeous beauty pageant" at beauty bar tonight. so i decided to go.

it was kind of a mistake.

i still love arcie and shasta, but my gods. i've never hated beauty bar. i kinda do now. as soon as you stepped inside, it smelled of puke. and, well, it has to smell horribly bad if i can smell it and be repulsed by it because i have the worst sense of smell*. i stayed for the first part of the beauty pageant and left after shasta's turn in the talent portion. all the hipster boys were treating the pageant like they were at a stripper joint. and, plus, the puke smell.

anyway. i hope one of the cola sisters won. i loved arcie's talent: hula hooping while singing "texas, our texas".

yup.

*i do. i've been smoking since 1994. my sense of smell really sucks.
