Day two... VEGAS
Day Two- Vegas
I think we overslept today. I think we were supposed to be done for buffet at 9 so that we had plenty of time for breakfast at the buffet before moms spa time. James’ alarm was on vibrate though, and on the far side of the room, so we slept through it. When we did wake up, two minutes later mom showed up. Hehehe. Skipped the buffet. Had Starbucks instead. And left mom at the spa. James and I walked through Sahara again and took the monorail back to the MGM Grand. Saw the lions again. Went over to the Tropicana and got our free decks of cards. Ran over to the Excalibur and checked prices/times on Shark Reef at Mandalay Bay. Then we headed over to Bellagio. Hit a few casinos on the way. And we ended up spending like an hour at Bellagio... because we were lost! That place is completely nuts! Anyways... crossed over to Bally’s and caught the monorail back to Sahara. Walked back to Stratosphere and rescued mom from hock. LOL.
After food mom wanted to clean up a little so we wandered up to our rooms and James and I basically passed out. Mom came down to get us... was surprised to find us out of it. We took a cab over to Fremont Street. Wandered around there for a bit. Got some new mardi gras beads. :P and gambled a little over at the Fremont. James played craps, mom played some slots, and I learned roulette. Mind you, I lost. But I did well for a bit. And then I went down hill. I didn’t like the fact that I had to use four chips ever time, though. That was poopy.
We caught another cab and went to a Peruvian restaurant (inka si senor) over on maryland and karen. Tasty ceviche. And I liked my arroz con pollo, but it had a lot of rice. *snicker* I’m gonna be hungry later. And when we were done we had the restaurant call for a cab. They told us it would be 45 minutes! But what were we supposed to do? So we waited. And waited. And waited! And at 50 minutes... we walked back to Stratosphere. And now I am really really tired. And my feet hurt a little bit. Wah!
We’re hanging in our rooms for a minute... and then we’ll head downstairs and see Bite. Maybe I’ll write more afterwards. Or maybe I’ll just sleep.
Mom’s here, guess its time to head down. :)
okay... me again. LOL. Yeah yeah, who else would be in here. Anyways, it’s nearly midnight. I just got back up to the room. Mom headed to hers and bed and James went off to gamble. I think a shower would be nice right now. But I’m also a little stiff from all the walking today that was followed by immediate sitting and not cooldown stretching.
But that’s not what you want to hear about, is it? Nope. I didn’t think so. LOL. You want to hear about Bite. Well... damn good. I mean, it has no redeeming social value at all. None whatsoever. But it was good unclean family (without-minors) fun. Let me start off by saying that it is a topless show with a plot. LOL. Vampire chicks have to find the Lord Vampires soul mate. So you take the erotic rock angels coven and let them dance to rock (AC/DC, GNR, etc), topless, and throw in some fangs. Oh yeah, you throw in a couple of audience plants that join the show and turn out to aerial performers and a singer (and I give massive props to whoever created/cast the show because the singer has some serious pipes and also seems to have a physical disability in his left arm). So yeah... that’s basically it. The aerial couple were really impressive. One of the angels can do the scarf stuff. That always impresses me. And they occasionally ran through the audience. that led to me being caressed by Tush and The Lord Vampire. Um... i’m pettable! LOL!
So yeah, the show was fun. Even if it did seem pretty random intervals that they lost or put on their tops. *snicker* oh! And there was a nice guy at our table from Stockton who works with autistic kids. Don’t know his name but we chatted before the show for a bit. Haha. And afterwards, when we were heading to the escalator, some of the cast was outside the theater and I got my picture taken with bondage boy, which is what I nicknamed the male of the aerial performers. It’s a pretty funny picture so I’ll probably post it. I didn’t o to any of the girls or the lord vamp, and I couldn’t get James to get his pic with the girls. But I got bondage boy! ROFL!! So I got caressed and a half hug (there was a squeeze involved in our picture taking) from the cast of Bite, this increases my rating of thumbs up to thumbs way up. :D good music, decent dancing, and as long as you don’t have a problem with breasts, it’s a fine little show. :P
off to bed or a quick walk around the casino? Tough call... maybe I’ll go see if I can find the cute guy...
Okay... nearly 1. Yeah yeah, thats not a very long time to be gone but I’m tired. Anyways, went downstairs and found James playing pai gow, which is kinda boring to watch. So I continued my relaxing walk around the casino. Did not find the cute guy. Damn. But I did run into the Lord Vampire. Told him he’d petted me, which he promptly denied (“I did no such thing, have no idea what you’re talking about”. Said with a wink and a smile.), and then he invited me to the bar that the cast was partying at. Um... hmmm... I should really go to bed. Um... I don’t drink. Yeah... alright, I went to the bar. Alone. Which sucked. (Where was my dee25x5 or my blueirish?!?!?!) There was a sexy guy dance contest happening when I walked in. Was HIGHLY entertained. *drool/thud* LOL. And I felt the need for a drink, too. So tonights drink is my traditional cranberry/vodka made by a very cute bartender. I tipped him too well, I’m sure, but the drink is yummy so who cares?! Anyways, stuck around there for a lil bit but I was still tired and a little sore. And I hadn’t found the cute guy. So I abandoned my fun search/drinking and headed back upstairs... which is why I am able to write about it all now. Hahaha. So I think I will drink a little bit more and then take a shower.
Did I mention that my brother is wearing his smiley face boxers? And that the lord vampire is much cuter in person and without the white contacts? Hehehe.
Okay... see ya Sunday!
