Everything Is More Fun With Wigs

A few weeks ago some friends at Osaka English House and I started talking about karaoke.  One thing led to another and soon we were wandering off in search of brightly colored wigs.  We had almost given up when we came across the corner of the Don Quixote store displaying socks, sexy costumes, and g-strings, for guys.  Tucked away between the costumes were the perfect wigs.  We bought three different colors and walked back happy.

The next day we met for all you can eat (in 90 min) yaki niku (cooked meat).  We cooked an interesting assortment of meats and vegetables on a grill set into our table.  After, we headed to karaoke.  After getting our snug little room we quickly donned our wigs before a server came back with our drinks.  When a waiter came he dillegently kept a straight face until just as he was leaving.  We all cracked up and giggled while we looked for songs.

Sure enough, after watching the other girls sing and after partaking of the all you can drink menu, I found that yes,  I had been right, I wasn't going to take the mic and sing my heart out.  I had a great time and sang along with a couple of songs, but only while the mics were safely pointed at the other girls.  After two hours the drinks finally hit me... and our time was up.  So we wore the wigs on the walk back to the house and shared them with other residents.  A good time was had by all.  ;-)
