Silly silly penni, first of all I wouldn't be caught dead even in the LOBBY of a second-level hotel in Bangkok or anywhere. Especially not if a multinational corporation is paying my tab. Second, in Bangkok, the "house rules" regarding "temporary overnight guests" for virtually all hotels are posted on a piece of paper prominently displayed on the writing desk when you get to your hotel room, because they do not want to create a public scene if someone does something that doesn't fit the house rules, nor would they want to get into a fracas with a guest when they automatically added the charge onto his room bill. One finds a virtually identical notice in hotel rooms in Rio de Janeiro as well.
Ah, dear penni, you are so easily inclined at the slightest provocation to cast aspersions on my character. I challenge you to find another taffeta thong like yours in the whole of Bangkok. It was my masterpiece, my life's most inspired work, and has clearly incited the rest of the Coven to endless grousing about favoritism. |
