Penny was excited. Zangen Pharmaceuticals had just announced that their annual convention was going to be held in New Orleans. She had, of course, taken a trip to the Big Easy once before when Leonard and the other nerds attended a comic book convention, and she had a wonderful time. Zangen had chosen New Orleans because they had just opened their new South Region manufacturing center in Hammond, which was just across Lake Pontchartrain. This year's convention was going to be a big deal for Zangen because they were going to announce the start of the campaign for their new pain relieving gel-patch.
They planned to snatch the market from Salonpas with their newer, bigger patch. Salonpas offered a four by six inch patch, and Zangen had increased the size to five by seven inches; with the same four per-cent Lidocaine (the most allowed without a prescription). But their huge improvement was adding an air-activated warming gel to the Lidocaine; and their price was comparable. After their success with the Erectile Dysfunction drug, Bernadette and Penny had been in charge of the advertising campaign and both assumed they were in for a substantial raise once the product hit the shelves. The only thing cooling her excitement was that she knew her husband wouldn't be able to accompany her to Louisiana.
The convention was the same week Leonard and Sheldon had been selected by CalTech to speak at a conference at UC Berkeley. Howard would already be in Houston to explain to future International Space Station astronauts how to repair the zero-gravity waste elimination system (space toilet) he had designed...just in case something went wrong. As was the case on the last trip, Penny's desire to stay at one of the historical hotels on Bourbon Street had been thwarted when, Zangen booked everyone rooms at the Hyatt Regency. Zangen was a pharmaceutical company: they had more money than God. It was convenient for them because the convention was to be held in Hyatt's huge conference room.
When she told Leonard, he was as disappointed as she was. "I'm glad we got to take that tour of the cemeteries and everything last time, but I still regret I couldn't take that voodoo tour with you. Maybe you could take Bernadette; although she might be even more skeptical than Sheldon, given her Catholic background," he suggested.
"Yeah...she's about as Catholic as I am Muslim," Penny answered, "they didn't even get married in a church."
"Well, just to show you that I know how to treat a very successful lady," Leonard told her, "the weekend before you go I'm taking my VIP; that's Very Important Penny; to the fanciest restaurant in town. I don't want you to think Zangen appreciates you more than I do...and I want to make sure you come back. I don't want you meeting some tall handsome Southern gent and staying there."
"You don't have to worry about that," she cooed seductively, "this drug pusher is all yours."
Of course, Penny blabbed about Leonard's plan to Bernadette and as soon as Howard found out; he begged to piggy-back on the idea. Leonard made a reservation at Shiro for four and urged Penny to dress accordingly for a five-star establishment. He pulled out all the stops and rented a tuxedo for the evening.
When he saw Penny emerge from the bathroom, his lower jaw fell open. She was dressed in a floor-length shimmering, strapless black gown with a slit up the front that seemed to go all the way to her crotch; revealing the entire length of her incredible long legs when she walked. The dress had no shoulders and was held up by nothing more than her marvelous breasts, which were mostly on display. "Holy crap," he mumbled as she walked toward him.
"Holy crap is right," she echoed, "I half expected a star-fleet commander's suit."
"Bond...James Bond," he deepened his voice, trying to be debonair.
"You are so sexy," she told him.
"Oh my God...right back at ya," he exclaimed. "Do we really have to go to dinner...I would be content just to stay here and look at you all night."
"I think Howard and Bernadette would be really pissed if we didn't show up...and then I'd have to hear about it all the way to New Orleans," she answered.
He took her hand and as they headed for the door, he confessed: "I still can't believe I'm married to you."
Dinner with Howard and Bernadette went well; despite Howard haranguing Leonard for not telling him he was wearing a tux. All eyes in the restaurant were on the Hofstadter's, and it wasn't because Leonard was wearing his tuxedo. Whenever Penny crossed her long legs, her delectable thigh was exposed all the way to her cheek. When they arrived home, Leonard made a flourish of removing his jacket like a cape and flinging it over the back of his computer chair. "The evening is not over, my dear," he said in his deepest voice, "I have selected a film in keeping with your destination." He led her over to the sofa and assisted her sitting down in her tight dress; noticing that he could see nearly all the way up her thighs.
Putting a DVD in the machine, he showed her the cover: Live and Let Die. "A classic James Bond film based in New Orleans and delving into the subject of voodoo," he informed her. He retrieved a bucket from the refrigerator; that he had strategically placed there earlier; which contained a bottle of champagne. Carrying it and two glasses over to the coffee table, he made a show of easily popping the cork and pouring the glasses full.
"Well James," she went along with the theme, "are you trying to get me drunk."
"I don't think that will be necessary," he stated and leaned in to kiss her plump lips. Sitting next to her and staring into her eyes, he told her: "you have the most amazing eyes...they're like sparkling emeralds. Did you know only two per-cent of the population has green eyes."
As the movie played on the screen, she responded: "I am so happy I married you." They watched the movie and at one point Penny remarked: "that guy Baron reminds me of the tour guide from the last time I was in New Orleans...Antoine."
"Yeah, that's Geoffrey Holder; he used to be the 7UP guy...the Uncola," Leonard told her, "his voice reminds me of Darth Vader."
She joked: "I knew we couldn't get through the night without a Star Wars reference."
"Completely unintentional," he chuckled as he filled her glass.
By this time she had kicked off her shoes and propped her legs up on the coffee table, allowing the sides of the dress to fall toward the floor and exposing her incredible legs. Leonard also discarded his recently shined shoes and began to run his hands up and down her smooth thighs, triggering her to spread them. The slit went all the way to her crotch and as his fingers grazed her bald mound and his fingertips became wet; since it was obvious that her wobbling breasts were unencumbered; he asked: "totally commando?"
"Always for you, Mr. Bond," she whispered as he continued to stroke her silky thighs.
