My trip to Las Vegas:

It started out with the three girls across from us in row 14, loud and obnoxious, commenting on how Bush (the one in Office) sucks, and is demoralizing to women. We started out thinking it fun, and funny until they just would NOT calm down. They did say I was hot and proceeded to take our pictures. I suppose it would have been flattering if they were not so drunk. Now, there are three girls living in the city who know my face…I just hope I never run into them!
We arrived at 10:30p, and were picked up by Mark’s sister Lisa. We then went to the “gay” area of Vegas. This I find interesting, because it seems EVERY performer at the Casino is a fag!
We then went to Lisa’s, hung out talked and finally got Mark to bed at 5:00a.m.!
Sat. we went to Aunt Carol’s huge mansion of a house for a b.b.q. There, we met Phyllis, Mark and Lisa’s mom and Gene her boyfriend. It was great food, and great fun, but by this time I was feeling sleep deprivation.
Sat. night, we went by some of the Casino’s –MGM, New York, New York, , the Bellagio, the Aladdin (which there is NO escape…honest…all sidewalks lead to the Aladdin, and when you ask someone who works there how to get out, they say it’s a secret!), The Bellogio, then to Fairmont street for the old-school gambling and “the experience”. At about 12:30a.- (how do you ever find out what time it is??!!!) we went back to Lisa’s house. Finally, we fell asleep at 3:00a.m.
Sunday, up at 8:30a.m. to start our last day.
We went to Casino’s, looking for great décor –The Venetian, Mandalay Bay (for the Rum Jungle-yummy!!) and finally to Rio –unfortunately for us, the Voodoo Lounge was not open, but we had fun watching two of the shows. It makes me laugh that these women from the mid-west hoot and holler over these guys that perform at these shows…like- HELLO- what a fag he is!!
After Rio, we were off to the airport for our flight home.
This time, the only one screaming on the flight was a little baby whose ears were popping so much its little head probably felt like it would explode…and can you believe…the parents did not bring a bottle on the flight?
It was nice to get more than 5 hours of sleep last night!!
