What Happens In Vegas Ain't Gonna Be Much If You're A Mo!

Last Saturday Eric and I boarded a jet plane and headed off to fabulous Sin City for a weekend of hard liquor, hard gambling and hard knocks! And if you believe that then come see me about some awesome beach front property I've been meaning to sell. Actually, while we did go to Vegas, the liquor and the gambling were not so much. Although we did play a few penny machines (come on, people-it's Vegas! You've got to gamble a little bit!) unfortunately we did not strike the "motherlode"-let's see for penny machines that would be about $500.00 right?



We got this "free" trip given to us after going to listen to one of those lame world travel time share presentations. For those of you who've never had the pleasure let me break it down:
You CANNOT bring children to these events; you have to sit through the most retarded hour-long movie where all the actors look like they've just been administered large doses of laughing gas in order to make us all feel like our lives will never be even remotely close to complete unless we buy into this crap right then and there; the sales agents are so over-the-top cheery that you're almost wishing for their immediate demise or yours (please, dear Lord, have mercy and just take me now!), and to top it all off, once you tell these crazy A people that you've had enough and your final answer is a big fat NO-they make you go through it again not just once with their crazy A manager, but yet again with his crazy A supervisor before you even get to the exit interview! By the time you actually are allowed to leave and collect your trip, you're practically running for the door at lightning speed! Oh and just in case you still haven't heard enough about how wonderful they are-once you cash in your "free" trip, they require you to sit through yet another lame presentation once you reach your destination! These people are seriously sick! Aaauuuggghh! Don't do it, people! Save yourselves! I felt like I needed a shower after all that sickly sweet sugar act they put on! Let's just say they were less than impressed with Eric and I (we totally had attitude the moment we walked through the door and it was more than apparent). I'm fairly sure the woman assigned to try and work us pretty much had us figured out before we'd even finished shaking hands. She may have been smiling at us, but it was easy to see she was thinking, "No Commission here. I'm screwed." She would be dead right!



ANYWAY, Eric and I did have a lot of fun! We rode in a limo, got a couples massage at our hotel (nice!), had a lot of yummy food and we felt like we were walking on the surface of the sun! I think it was 108 in the shade! I was dying! Still, it's a great place to people watch and there's always something worth watching in Vegas!

Memo to me: Next Vegas trip will have to be in the winter! :)
