My birthday was a blast. Had about 30 people and the Canterbury for drinks. Not a bad turn out for a tuesday night. I'm thinking of having a legit party on the 10th at Searrle's best karaoke.
New year's eve kinda sucked. Lara and i slept in late, then headed to our friend's place on the hill. We had drinks till about 10, then went to the Low Fi, but soul night was retarded packed, so we walked downtown to watch the fireworks, then we took a cab back to aforementioned friend's house and tried to get some sleep. Unfortunately people were slowly trickling in all morning so we didn't sleep for shit.
We hopped in an escalade and went down to sea tac about 4 am and got on a flight to Vegas. When we got here we weren't able to get into our hotel room so we wandered the strip for 6 hours on no sleep. When we finally got our keys we passed out for hours. Woke up just in time to wander down to the MGM grand to see Circque du Soleil's KA. It was fucking intense. Best stage show I've ever seen by a longshot.
We wandered home afterwards and went to bed. Woke up this morning for breakfast. We went to the champagne buffet, where I had nothing but prime rib, roast duck and ice cream. Got a good buzz, then went and slept more.
Now we are at a booze kiosk at the Mandalay drinking Tom Collins and waiting to see Neil Diamond.
I've only been playing penny slots, and I'm only down about $50. Not too bad. Tonight we are going to take advantage of $1 margaritas at Bill's and try and get in on a strip poker game.
I want to get the $47 special, and lara said I could if it weren't for the HIV that it probably brings. Plus they al have dead eyes, so no real loss.
Anyone need any kitschy souvenires?
