Clik here to view.So, I have to tell yall about Ya-Ya's bachelorette party! It was a total blast...but, um, there are definitely no pictures to share. This is partially because of scandalous material in the pictures, but MOSTLY because we were so drunk and having so much fun that nobody took any pictures. I have to say, I caved and got a bunch of cheesy stuff for the party. Also: there is a reason people do this. If everybody has those little tiaras, then hey, they know whom to buy drinks for! We got Ya-Ya a bigger tiara, and then she and I and the other bridesmaid present wore these fab sashes from sponsor Spark & Stitch. Ya-Ya's was white with teal feathers, and ours were blue, and said "Bridesmaid," which was okay unless we crossed our arms, and then people thought we were all getting married.

Clik here to view.Given the bar where we started the night, this was not a crazy assumption. We went to Sing Sing in Denver, a dueling piano bar, and it was FULL OF BACHELORETTE PARTIES. I mean, there were probably three dudes in the entire place, not counting the two pianists and one scared-looking male waiter. It was fun, although at some point the weird Denver thing took over and they made us all sing "God Bless America" and I got hit on the head with an American flag, which is, I don't know, at least as much of a statement as burning it. Um. Sorry. I'll take the politics over to the other blog.
Anyway, it was FUN! And I designed a scavenger hunt which I think is a very good scavenger hunt, because it doesn't actually push anybody over any lines but provides plenty of opportunities to giggle, which is the point. I will say that the penny thing is IMPOSSIBLE, and it was actually very difficult to find someone who spoke a language other than English (weird).
But here it is, in case you wanna crib! I printed it out in Blackjack (from dafont.com) on bright yellow paper, and it was a fun party favor.
• Get business cards or numbers from five men
• Serenade a stranger
• Dance on a table (1 extra point per participant)
• Crank call someone you know
• Get a drink bought by a stranger for each person in the party
• Get a guy to guess your favorite Disney character without saying the name of the film, or the word “Disney”*
• Get a married man or bartender to do three jumping jacks
• Get ten strangers to write the secret to a happy marriage on bar napkins,
and save the napkins (1 extra point per bar represented in the napkins)
• Kiss a bald man’s head, or rub it for good luck
• Find two complete strangers and get one to give the other a piggyback ride
• Get someone to tell you how gorgeous the bride is—at length—in another language
• Get someone to guess what color bra you’re wearing without naming any colors
• Get a guy to put on your lipstick (on his lips, arm, whatever!)
• Get someone to show you his or her belly button
• Call a radio station and ask them to play a special song dedicated to the bride
• Get a man to declare to the entire room that he doesn’t like sports
• Obtain a penny from the year the bride was born
• Get someone to perform a hilarious party trick in front of at least ten people
• Get a man to do ten push-ups (1 bonus points for each clap between)
• Get a stranger to do a runway walk through the middle of the bar
* Ya-Ya is a Disneyphile.
