Hello to my little friend!

We started the evening in the hotel business center where we get free alcohol, for some reason it was tasting oh so good to me. (this is always a direct indication of how wild my night is!) Well after 4ish drinks we decide to go out on the town, troy felt i may need a little food in my stomach also (this is about 8pm). So we went to Hoff brewery down the road so troy could get a few of his wheat beers. Then off to my new favorite bar, the Angel Witch. Its wonderful that even on a Tuesday night that every place is still very busy. Well after a couple drinks in troy he loosened up very well, almost as much as me. So we bought a few hand fulls of ping pong balls (these are like $.70 tips if the girls catch them) to throw. Then me and the waitress talked troy into buying a whole basket of them and going to the top of the stage so he could drop them on the girls dancing. Once the balls were are gone he got to slide down the pole. Its funny to see a guy try it. But he landed softly, and didn't hit any of the girls. Well by this time we were very popular with the ladies. I even got a shirt from the place to show off later (actually it comes into my story later). We also ran into a lady friend of one of the UOP guys who left already. Her name is Koi (like the fish). Anyway she was working. She and about 5 other girls had been escorting this gentleman around and brought him here. So i bought her a drink, well a shot of tequila that is. That is what started off the real party! Well after a few more drinks and a few more shots, and for all of those who have drank tequila shots with me you know how my nights go. After some chit chat with one of the waitresses troy got "selected" to go on stage during one of the performances. When it was his time they took him on the stage and put him in a chair and tied him to it. I know what you are think "oh wow they do that here" but people we are in Thailand! So the girl got bare naked and all up on my man. Wow the look on his face, priceless. But then again the look on the guys face next to us when he realized it don't get mad about that, even funnier i think. After he got done we drank some more! (see a trend here) We joined up with Koi and her group and threw ping pong balls. there was another gentlemen that got picked to got on stage. During his show it was 6 girls they tied him down onto a bed and all "rode" him, they also showed us his little friend, so he was just out for the place to see, but you couldn't see it all that well because the amount of girls dry humping him. Yes i was looking, I'm married not dead. The time flew by and next thing i remember was that we went to a go-go bar called Happy's. I have to be honest i don't remember much there. Except that i was glad i got a new shirt because the one i was wearing got spilled on and i took it off. I had a bra on so calm down. Troy graciously reminded me that i had another shirt i could put on, what a great husband. I think we left there around 2-3 am (things close after 4am here). We stopped by our 24 hr McDonald's and off to bed we went. Drunken fun had by all. One of the things that surprised me about going out and about in this type of an area, was how little men harassed me. Normally when i go to a bar in the States and get drunk i have man coming out of the wood work! It was nice to have a good time without having to be on guard all night.

AngelWitch

There are no pictures on this blog due to the fact that cameras are not allowed where we were at!

Tonight was one of the UOP guys last nights so we had to go out on the town! Finally we got to see a "show". They have a wide variety of shows here. Some are called "tiger shows" from what i have been told its a show where the women in this show see what dangerous items they can "hide" from your view. For example a string of razor blades! Another show is a "talent" competition. Who can catch the most ping pong balls (not using any extremities or mouth--you do they math). And who can shoot the balls better. We decided to go to Angel Witch. Its a place that's set up like a theater slash strip club. We all sat in these rows that circled the stage. The stage had about 10 dancer poles that circled it, the poles reached the 50ft ceiling. Then it was more of a variety show (completely naked most of the time or with leather bondage outfits). Some of the girls danced a traditional Thai dance-but naked. Other girls did a S&M show with whips and lots of chains. Another girl did an amazing pole show! One girl did the "cutie girl" thing with pig tails and about 10 g-strings on, which she took off one by one and placed on audience members until she was naked to. Let see then there was your typical seductive girl on girl action. And then the one i thought was new and eventful was a lady came out wearing only black tape, during the song she ripped it off, until she was naked. Sounds weird but was actually entertaining-looked painful also. We plan on seeing a tiger show and a ping pong ball act before we leave, and any other show that you can only see here. So keep your eye out for those tidbits.

After the show we all went to this disco bar called Lucifer's, you entered into a room and then in the back room it was a huge room that was made like a big cave, so you felt kind of in hell. They did have a cover band playing, which was good. There we all practiced our bump and grind moves! The bands here are all very good. They know the latest and greatest songs out. Example: i hear tons of "Bringing Sexy Back", "London bridge" and "Buttons" all very good songs! After some time there we then headed home because the dude that was leaving needed to catch his flight.

The first week

This week has been very rejuvenating! My life consisted of waking up for my free breakfast, which is wonderful. I have tried more fruits this week than ever in my life. I am still trying to figure out what they all are and how to eat them! I usually got on to the computer by 8:30am so that I could IM on MSN Messenger with anyone wanting to talk. Then I had many options- I could shop, read, explore, lay by the pool, watch movies or go to the spa. Those are some of the things I did this week at least. Troy gets home between 6-10pm. So I have lots of time to myself. David, Greg, Troy and I all went and got foot massages after work. I have learned that there are two types of massages really. There is a regular massage and then there is one with a "happy ending" as they call it. The regular ones are incredible cheap here, I spent $6/hr and that includes a tip. And these women are good at massages!
For lunch the hotel has free lite meals with fruit, sandwiches and deserts. For dinner they have a free "dinners from around the world", which means they pick a country the serve food from there. So meals are pretty easy for me to find! If troy gets home late we all go out to eat. We are about three blocks from "walking street". It's a street made famous by the Vietnam Conflict. All the soldiers would come to Pattaya for their R&R. That's really how this city got started. They have an amazingly high amount of "working girls" here. The go-go bar is where you can pick and choice the one you want. So for all those who want to know how it works here you go...

So you go into one of these Go-Go bars and it has tables that all the girls are standing on. I would like to say they are dancing but its more a swaying or jiggle that they do. Since in Thailand nudity is forbidden (and that is a very unenforced law!) the girls where clothes. Imagine a 6 year old's skirt and shirt on a 100lb Asian person. They do not wear bras or underwear with the clothing, now remember they are up on tables so you can see everything anyway. The shirts are usually a button down shirt with one button actually working. Now that you have a mental picture this is how it works. The girls come up to talk to you and its polite to offer them a drink. Now its never one girl but usually 5-10 girls. A drink is about $1.50 each so it's not really expensive to buy one for each girl. If you find one you are interested in you can take them home (or whereever) for the price of a bar fine (600 baht=$15/per girl). Now that's just the price to get them to leave with you. You and the girl determine a price for the activities you would like preformed. Now since I haven't actually went so far to see what activity costs how much you are free to imagine, but I can tell you it's a lot less that you would ever think (that's what I am told). Now I personally would never partake in these prostitution events but part of me was thinking....for $15/night I could have them clean/laundry/etc. and I guess i could have her do it topless so my husband would pay for it!
They have a variety of bars. This explanation is just the Go-Go bars. I was told about a BJ bar, where the men just sit down at a table with this curtain around the table and they get a BJ while sitting there. This is weirder to me because you don't get to see who did the BJ when its time to pay them, my thought is how do you know if its not an 80 woman without teeth or a woman at all? They also have these "shows" which have a variety of acts that include girls "hiding" objects, or shooting objects, or even catching objects with their nether regions. I haven't seen one yet, but I am sure I will have a more detailed story of one of these shows before I leave.
Everyone here is Khun _____. So if you name is paul. You would be addresses as Khun Paul. This goes for boys and girls.
