Welp y'all, Paul and I just got home from Las Vegas. Well we got home Tuesday at 11:30pm and I had to turn around and open yesterday at work. I open everyday this week. I am beat.
This is Paul's dad (Doug), Barb and Paul's mom (Mary) at 4:30am on Saturday. Ouch!
Paul and I at the airport.
Its a cold and rainy day in good ol' KC.
Ain't no thing but a chicken WING. Yeah, its 9pm and I'm tired, leave me alone.
Mountains!
Lake Mead.
Mommy and son.
Me and my baby.
Our hotel, the Luxor:
Me by a fountain in the lobby.
Paul by the statue in the shopping area.
Paul and I getting ready to see an IMAX ridefilm (waste of $20 by the way).
Checking in!
The view from the taxi as soon as we got there...
The Excalibur:
Their fountains have NOTHING on the Bellagio!
"The black knight always triumphs!" WTF?
Me and the white knight!
Looking up!
view...
This is looking from our room.
Off with their heads!
Paris:
The Paris was NOT AT ALL what I had hoped. I was so disappointed...
The fountain outside.
New York New York:
Hell yeah!
Spooky....
Bellagio:
Oh my gosh, it took Paul and I what felt like 5 days to find a store that sold Bellagio casino cards for my brother! We finally found one and I was pooped! I had to sit down and Paul and I fell in love with this suade like sofa...
In front of the Bellagio.
I loved the ceiling in the Bellagio... its soooo pretty!
The dancing lights!
Alladin:
The had a Brighton store in the freakin hotel!!!
Random Hotels:
me @ Mandalay Bay.
Me outside of the Alladin.
Circus Circus was a joke. We spent $45 to get into the Adventure dome and it was sooo not worth it! The rides were rediculous and the only one we really liked (the Spongebob ridefilm) we had to wait in line for 45 minutes.
WAYNE NEWTON!
Stratosphere
The Flamingo.
.....
The Lion habitat at MGM Grand.
Emerils at MGM Grand.
I loved this sign in the Monte Carlo.
The Monte Carlo.
The Boardwalk.
Most of the time we got around by using the Monorail. It was $20 for 10 shareable rides. We got our $$$ worth out of that.
waiting....
The monorail.
We were really bored.
On the monorail...
Random pics:
The famous Wheel of Fortune!
Me eating corn on the cob at the buffet in the Flamingo. It was good... cost us $50...but it was good!
Going down...
The Harley Cafe.
Elvis...
@ the M&M store.
Mommy and son.
Barb and Doug
Just pick something already!
Cheese!
Barb and Jim.
On the way back we had a layover in Pheonix:
Grand Canyon. I think.
Oh man... in other news:
Things at work are crazy. Everyone is leaving and Kim is on leave still. So I'm working 28-30 hours a week again, which tickles me pink cause I used the $500 in my savings for our trip and to pay off my Sears Mastercard so I can charge it up again with books for school. Good (and bad) thing I have a $2300 credit limit. Then I wrote a check to MWSU today for $795. Good thing I saved all freakin summer. I still owe $740 or something like that... but I will have no problem paying that. I get paid 3 times in September, so I should be able to put that money from my savings back in there. I was going to use that to put a down payment on a car when I graduate. Paul will need a good car when he goes to UMKC and I want a new one danmit, so I am giving him mine and I am thinking of buying a Chevy Malibu (the new ones) or my love... an Impala. Who knows right now. But my car should get him around for a while. I bought it in 2001 with 39,000 miles. It is a '96 Buick and those Buicks last forever! Haha, but I have racked up the miles from all my trips to Springfield and Branson to see David and my boys. It's at 89,000 now! But they say you put 10,000 a year on a car if you drive it regularly.
Is it just me or are people on the fence about going back to school? I hate my Spanish class but I am excited to take Shakepeare. I'm just hoping people on Mochilla don't have big heads and shitty opinions about everything. I hate that. Especially one person... you know who I am talking about Brandon Haskey... *laughs loudly and obnoxiously (sp?)* I can't stand when people think their opinion is the only one that matters. It pisses me off and I have no problem telling said people where they can shove their opinions.
I'm tired. If anyone wants to stop by sears tomorrow... I work 9:30 (well we open at 10) to 5:30...
I miss my brother. I bought him towels because Jasmine kicked him out. So he had to find an apt in one night. He bought himself pillows and blankets and stuff, but he seems to think he can get by on 2 towels. I bought him 4 more and 4 washclothes. I am calling it his birthday present so he doesn't bitch at me.
