so my stomach, asshole and my brain sit down for a little quid pro quo on the verdict of the Taco Station after a couple of visits:

Brain: is chicken suppose to look like that?!
Stomach: I hurt
Asshole: you hurt? Just wait until I have to try and pass your rejected waste...talk about hurt
Brain: seriously, this can't be chicken...is it even cooked?
Stomach: nope. I'm a sea of angry stomach acids and food poison
Asshole: great. That means I'm going to have a meeting of the minds with the porcelain god for a few hours later
Brain: yep, I'm pretty sure we're never coming back here again
Stomach: promise? Because I'm a delicate flower
Asshole: Hey, I'm the one who gets raped here!

The chicken fried steak is to die for; grilled cheese: lactose heaven; hash browns: who cares if you can use them to lube your motor; eggs: perfect for that gal who likes to swallow; fries, my god, love me some limp!

OK, the fries are utter shit and I'm pretty sure that everything else was just mediocre greasy spoon food. But when you've consumed as much vodka as I did during the Mel and Amber shit show(its a good time, you should check it out), I'm pretty sure that golden fried geriatric thigh in a watery ketchup sauce, would be a little slice of heaven at 2am. Just sayin

PS
after the bars close, is when you'll get the best action in this place. Bring a camera

there is nothing more fun than walking in here with my hot pinup model sista from another mista gal pal and having the sales staff assume we're a couple...they let us share a booth and dress each other together, rearrange each others giblets and lace each other up in corsets. Good times by all.

cute lingerie that I would gladly wear under a trench for a hot bearded musician guy so I could accost him with my pushed up goodies, SURPRISE! Boobs in your face!

If only they were within my budget, le sigh

I don't know if you've noticed this about me...but I'm white. Like, I'm talking translucent skin; Taco Bell mild sauce is spicy; and Vanilla Ice is considered street rap.

So that being said, imagine me in a Caribbean style restaurant, where the chicken is jerked and the plate comes with a side of collard greens. I'm not in white bread Kansas anymore Toto...

I stuck with the safe bet-BBQ chicken, white rice and I'll be brave-the greens. The chicken was tender and juicy and holy hell, I actually liked the collard greens-this honky white girl ass loved her some Caribbean food!

Murray is to bar-tending

This is not the type of fratty bar you go to because they serve strong drinks to get your swerve on in hopes of liquid courage to hit on the fox in the corner. This is not the type of bar that has a $2.50 vodka tonic that will have you praying to the porcelain gods with its staggering brutality. This is not the type of bar where you show up half dressed with your muffin top a-poppin and double stick tape concealing them thar nips...

This is the type of bar you go to when you want a well crafted proper alcoholic beverage to relax with and savor. Where the patrons are mellow and friendly-YES friendly in Seattle!- and the food is fantastic.

Its low lit, intimate, classy and the service is friendly and knowledgeable. I know I've gotten old when I prefer the mellow digs and the splendor of a proper drink, over a cheap kick me on my ass cocktail while laughing at the meat market's popped collars

    Nice staff who, even though they gave our group a crooked eyed look at my narcoleptic ass passed out in the booth dreaming of waking up in strange city basements with mysterious stitches and bloodied knuckles, they didn't kick us out.

    Murray is one amazing mixologist and the bar menu is tits. Go for their happy hour, you can get some stellar deals on drinks and small bites.

my kind of place...loud, cheap, dirty, assholes, dirty assholes and attitude to boot.

with a special like a PBR and a very large shot of Whiskey for $5, how can you go wrong? I know...you could plant your bare ass on the seat and get crotch crickets...nah, just hover, you'll be fine ladies

Now if I can just get my sexy bearded boy to take naughty pics in the photo-booth with me, we'd be all set.

I had the biggest girlie boner walking into this store and being bombarded by their art supplies...unfortunately I blew my load within the first 5 minutes checking out their selection of Gouache paints...I was forced to wander the rest of the time with a glazed over glowing satisfied smile and a wet spot

I will repeat the experience. oh yes

I'm a biking novice, so when Frankenstein threw his chain in a hissy while biking up a particular steep hill in SF, I opted to throw the bitch in the back of my car until I got to Seattle for a fixin.

The bike shop here, the guys are great and if they had any notions about me being a stupid girl on a very old, not so prudy and rusty vintage bicycle, they withheld their snickers until I was gone.

Diagnosis: needed to adjust the tensioner and remove a warped link. $6.50
I celebrated by having the hills kick my ass in a bike riding fight.

"It's alive!!!"

here's the thing, I'm a bonefide couch surfer now, any opportunity to sleep in an honest to goodness bed, I'm stoked. Added bonus? I get to do it in my birthday suit.

12:30am...enter room, flinch. Ok the Westin this is not and at $39 a night, I just wanted a warm scrub and a clean place to rest my head

emphasis on clean

Pull back the covers...hair No. 1: about an inch, black and slightly curly. hair No. 2: on pillow, long, red.

I slept fully clothed. thanks

Maybe if I wore skinny jeans...I would fit in

Maybe if I had trendy tattoos...I would fit in

Maybe if I wore a straw trilby...I would fit in

awwwwe shit...I totally just described myself. FAIL. Still a cool bar if you want a change from the pretentious LA-need-to-be-seen-and-OMFG-I-didn't-get-into-the- Playboy-mansion-party...scene.

However, I love the Seattle Cha Cha better. Sorry bros, no offense
