Vegas Baby!

I got back on Sunday from a four day vacation to Las Vegas. Had a lot of fun. Bill and I stayed at the Luxor, it was nice but I think next time I will definitely pay the extra to get a room at the Bellagio. Lost my ass at gambling, as usual. I love the Alien penny slots, when you win you get face huggers. I <3 the face huggers. In fact I lost about a hundred dollars to them.

Bill and I ate at the buffets. I love them, however it was a bit harder with the fact that I recently found out that I am allergic to fish and shellfish. Thanks again to Dana for coaching me through the death defying anaphylactic shock that occurred after eating the notorious shrimp basket at Barracuda’s. I now religiously carry my epinephrine syringe with me everywhere I go. Unfortunately death lurks at every corner in Vegas, in the form of the all-you-can-gorge-yourself, shrimp and crab legs. On the up side there was a lot of lamb, chocolate mousse and liquor, so all was not lost.

I had some observations while on vacation. The usual how idiotic can people be sort of thoughts. I noticed that every 20-something young man turns into an obnoxious character from the movie “Swingers” upon stepping foot in a casino. I also wonder how anyone can smoke cigars and say that it smells “good”. Nasty. Not Sexy.
I did get a laugh when I saw this guy who was handing out flyers for hookers, give one to an old lady. The look on her face was priceless. I don’t know what was funnier the fact that the old lady was shocked in “Sin City”, or the fact that the Hooker-propaganda-distributor actually handed a 75 year old woman a flyer for prostitution.

So I am back to normal life again. Trying to learn math so that I can test out of the prerequisites for college. I am not sure if I made a wise decision in the fact that I chose my career path as a pharmacist, considering I cannot do math or science. I never have done things the easy way so why start now right?

I hope you all are doing well and enjoying life. If I don’t see you before Halloween, have a wonderful holiday and Luvs to you all~
