Oh Yeah!

It isn’t often that I get to stray from the Marriott to stay at some interloper hotel, but every once an awhile I get to hit up one of the other lame corporate hotels. A Hilton, a Crown Plaza – if I’m very lucky – the Double Tree (which if you were in the Minneapolis part of the Middle you would know as the lesbian hotel.) But this time I was lucky. I was very lucky. I had the honor of staying in the Mecca of Entertainment in the Iowa/Nebraska area known as Council Bluffs, IA. At Harrah’s – Oh Yeah!

If I only had time to explain what the inside of a casino in Council Bluffs, IA is like. If only…..

I have just two things to report:

We had a delightful team dinner at the steakhouse on the top of Harrahs where we discussed new and fabulous ideas for New Years traditions, as well as the cock-blocking of McLovin (which was very sad.) Now, the 360 - as one might imagine when thinking of a restaurant on the top floor of a building - has panoramic views of both sides of the Missouri River, including the illustrious Downtown Omaha. Hot. I’m sorry – Oh Yeah! The food was exceptional just incase you are wondering. But ANYWAY the best part about the panoramic views from the 360 is that the building is 12 stories high. Yep. And it’s towering compared to everything else. That’s the height of the East Building at Riverside for those of you from Fairview. Sad. It’s their ‘skyscraper’ in the middle of that very, very big sky. Or perhaps the best part of our dinner was the fact that we were sitting in the 360 during a relativly intense storm in the middle of tornado alley. It was somewhat terrifying. I thank the makers of Grey Goose.

Jake – to answer your earlier inquiry – there is Oh Yeah 1-8 and they will take you pretty much anywhere you want to go – probably even the Bikini Bar. We were stuck in some stupid van. No Oh Yeah for us. F.

This is all I know. Or I have to finish my actual work now.
