Look what happened now...
Ready, Set, Jet!
|
So things started off ok. I had 20 mintues to kill before going to the strip with my LA buds. So thought I would cash in some wee winning & play a bit. No stress. But... Suddenly a migraine. WTF? No, I'm not stressed, yes, I'm drinking plenty of water & no, I don't drink booze.Slept good last night, too. Honestly, I think it was the smoke & the machines. WTF?! So I've been chill in the room, lying down in hopes it will go away. Can't sleep.. Grrrr Has anyone else had this happen? I actually noticed (ok everytime, maybe) I played over this week that the machines bothered me. I can't actually put into words how... But I didn't like to even sit in front of them. I attributed it to the smoke (I already bitched, err I mean posted about) this. Sounds crazy, but the headache is definitely real. Ok-- I'm going to try & nap again to go out tonight. See ya- Or Why can't I find a Decent Croissant? Was really craving for a light, fluffy, delicate Parisian croissant this morning...so headed down to this wonderful bakery in the hotel. But no such luck...attendant said,"We do have bagels." * __ * uh huh, they aren't the same. I am going to the strip later & will stop by Paris - I'm sure they will have... Was just hopeful. Left there went to Starbucks (still in hotel). Chai tea!! Decided I would just get Subway (don't judge me) & picnic by pool for breakfast.. It's still pretty early & somewhat cool outside. So off I go in search of pool.. Why no pictures of pool? Why no video?? Err Because... A couple of ladies were sun bathing by pool & a couple of men were helping them?!... It's Vegas. (Not really sure what they were doing, but err it looked personal & naked.) :0 So I took this sad photo of lounge chair (immediately wish I hadn't thrown good Coach purse down on it, what kinda fluids on there?) yucks :X And went back inside... So no judgement. Anyway, I am now headed off to the drag in search of some silly souvenirs & Perhaps a good Croissant. Looks like its going to be quite a day! Wish me luck. Talk soon! Hey, There is a gym here in the hotel. Where? I'm not sure. This place is like most Vegas casino/hotels you need GPS just find your way back to the room. WTF You think I joking, naw.. But besides the extra work out of being lost in the hotel (how the Hell do those drunk people EVER find their rooms?) & hiking around Neveda; it's still important to keep up with your fitness plan. I included morning walks while in Austin, (remember?) I am taking time to meditate daily here, do floor work & yoga. So feeling zen as I wait for the shuttle back to the mall. ;) Oh I did indulge a bit.. This was so good. New York style cheese cake... And speaking of New York Style---- :0 Because you have to live a little. I didn't eat the WHOLE PIZZA OR THE WHOLE CHEESECAKE..1 piece of each over the course of a week. Lol "All things in moderation, including moderation." As a friend likes to say.. Ok I see my ride -- Got to run, talk soon! This was sunrise -- too many obstacles but still was nice. I couldn't be bothered to go outside to snap a better shot.. Had gaming waiting for me. I waited in line for ever (probably 10 whole minutes) and there were still 50 people a head of me for breakfast buffet.. #fail You know all fruit will be gone by then, nothing left but rubber eggs (yuck) & old meat. So I left line & went on search for afforadable food (haha) in Vegas. *actually I didn't ever get close enough to see buffet it was probably great. It's just I am a fire sign we do not wait in line...ever. :x Ended up just having coffee at slot machine in casino & winning. Yeah! Later headed to Starbucks. I was really surprised that the veggie sandwiched were only $5.00 too. (Some stuff in Vegas is more than 5 x what you would pay elsewhere in the states) So I bought 2 bottles of water, a veggie foot long & yogurt for approx $10.00 win! and after eatting 1/2 I decided to try the slots again... This was a penny machine. I checked out with $62.00 on a $5.00 bill. So I quit for the day. It was napping, then shopping (show you that in another post), then back to the room to meditate (yes, really) and later clubbing. And I called & got the wifi/ipad problem straighten out. I am on Fire! World peace is next .....lol Tomorrow I am meeting friends from LA...so should be a busy day. Talk soon- How are you? Enjoying the long Labor Day weekend if your in the states, I suppose. I'm doing all the last minute things before I leave...I feel like I have never been anywhere in my life. WTF?! * ___ * So excited! I think this is my 4th trip to Vegas? So yes, I have seen most of the sites and know my way around pretty good. But there is always something new to see. I may not be back in the US again for awhile so am going to visit everything I can this trip. I'm not much of a gambler, but there are other things to do...like the amazing shopping!
Wanna go with? Well I guess so, or you would not be reading this, huh? LOL Talk soon. *Note the counter at the top I found free on line & the Vegas strip picture was also a random picture. Credit to both the creators. Vegas babyHey, I just broke down and told my brother I was going to Vegas for a few days. He is umm, well, not a very good gambler. He lectured me regarding the evils of gambling. :X This was on the phone so I let my mind wander back to the last time he went to New Orleans with us. I was out & about with my guy and 1 of our other friends called me very upset from the Casino. She informed me she could not get him out of Harrah's Casino. (Click to read about my last adventures in Harrah's) He told her he would not leave as long as he had money... * ____ * So yes, please give me gambling advice...Rolls eyes. But I listened and then reminded him that I rarely gamble more then $20.00 because $$$ is for SHOES! WTF?! I was not going to gamble. I was going to just get away..the price was insane and I wanted a BREAK. If you want to know what the hotel cost read this post. One friend is talking about getting remarried in Vegas, so I sent her this. (See below) She thought it was funny..he did not. LOL So anyway, there is a lot to do while there beside just gamble. But be warned it is hot as HELL during the summer. (Not unlike my part of Texas) so keep that in mind when planning a trip. Oh & the dinning is very expensive. I don't know why everyone thinks its so cheap?
Ok I have things to do and heat/sunlight to avoid. So this is going to be super short. (Read the weekend post if you want longer, it's right behind this one and has like 24 pictures of randomness.) Catch you later! |
