Posing with Meat

This kind of happened by accident, I was out for an "educational" dinner with my bosses, coworkers and some pharmaceutical representatives at a fancy restaurant a couple months ago. I'm not a person of interest at these events, primarily because I'm not a doctor and don't really have the interest in most of the medications these people are discussing. Frankly, i show up for the free food and drinks i wouldn't normally choose to ingest due to the monetary absurdity. It's pretty cool to get to go to these swanky places and order fancy cuts of meat and expensive glasses of wine and have these annoying waiters treat me like i'm wicked important, even though they loathe my existence. (i'm attending one next week and hope to have some fresh pictures to post later)

SO yeah, these things can get BORING too, and after a few glasses of wine, i get fidgety and tend to start entertaining myself in various benign ways. This one night was extra painfully boring and i had just finished this awesome veal chop..... I leaned across the table, handed my coworker my iphone, equally as bored/drunk I demanded her to take pictures of me posing with this mammoth baby cow bone. It took some slight coaxing, actually she was all for it. The hardest part was getting her to stop laughing and remain still enough to take a decent picture. The best part was no one noticed a damn thing beyond laughter, which paralleled some awful erectile dysfunction joke one of the docs threw out.


since then i've been inspired to pose with various meat bones at family functions and other social gatherings. and yes, it is imperative to make a grizzly face every time. Bon Appetit!
