hotel surprise

You know when you check into a hip funky hotel, you'll find by the minibar all kinds of interesting items offered for sale; aveda toiletries, disposable camera, sewing kit (to sow that loose button), some 'protection', a range of lip glosses, a zagat restaurant guide etc.

But I was really shocked when I found this:







"the sex kitten kit makes any night a catwalk on the wild side where your inner sass and sex appeal are unleashed to purr-fection every time. Designed specifically for the ladies, sex kitten is sure to give new meaning to special occasions. Keep it sexy and fun, but remember to be responsible. Never drink and drive and always practice safe sex. Each kit contains one serving (2-3 tablets) of the following:
DRIVEN
female pleasure pack
LEVEL
hangover relief formula
SUPER-CHARGED
fast acting energy booster
SHIELD
immune booster
*these statements have not been evaluated by the food and drug administration. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

Ok, I'll admit...the 'inner sass' being 'unleashed to purr-fection' statement sort of tempted me to open up the box and pop a pill. But then the idea that I was going to pop a pill out of a pink box that called itself ‘sex kitten’ and one that was not FDA approved made me feel a bit uneasy to say the least. (I also feared it might make me act flirty and all over guys and stuff – killish mala da3i)

I stashed the box back into the basket by the minibar and looked at it everyday…from afar with lingering curiosity and silent apprehension. As I checked out of the hotel , I whimsically picked up the box and plopped it into my suitcase. (hey they can’t be illegal drugs, they’re selling it in hotel rooms for heaven’s sake).

Maybe I’ll try it with my friends when we’re painting the town red in Kuwait (ee 6al). :p!
