what happens in vegas...

stays in my blog! :)

so i drove to las vegas sunday morning to be with my roomie for her birthday. it was fun, alot of alcohol, alot of gambling, alot of good food and fun times with friends. we stayed at the luxor and we got the room for free because our friend chris gambled for 5 straight hours at the poker table... EVERYDAY!! talk about making sacrifices for your friends!!! laura and i hung out at the casinos, each addicted to our fave new slot machines: jackpot party and wheel of fortune! it was brutally hot there (no surprize) and it made me miss my sister a little (she used to live there) but overall, i had a good time exploring the casinos (we went to the new WYNN casino where Avenue Q will be opening soon!) and hanging out with people i like. the drive there and back were an odd mixture of relaxing, hot (cuz you have to turn off your a/c when you go through the desert otherwise your car will overheat), boring and entertaining. i drove through baker, CA home of the worlds tallest thermometer! it was 115* ~ UGH!! :) i also stopped off at a real ghost town on the way back! fun fun! but i'm glad i'm back... i can only take vegas in small doses... i could never live there. AND, i will never NEVER bitch about the valley heat again! :)
