This past weekend in honor of Mariel and Cheryl's birthdays, a few of us got together for tea at the Ritz Carlton in Half Moon Bay. The first exciting happening was that Cheryl had a loaner car from a Mercedes dealership, and after confirming several times that I was indeed insured for it, I drove it out to Half Moon Bay. It probably looked much nicer pulling up to the valet people than my beat up Honda Accord.

Tea time itself was a very nice affair, complete with little sandwiches (without crust), scones, and bite-sized desserts. About halfway through tea time, I got up to go to the restroom. In a fit of Asian Inspiration (which, is probably the name of an Asian hip-hop artist), I took my credit card with me and before I got back to our table, I gave it to one of the servers to pay for everyone. Once the check came and I was discovered, some of my friends were understandably miffed, but I glowed in triumph.

However, not to be out-Asianed, later that night I found a stack of bills hidden under a magazine in my room.

It's war.
