What Happens Before Vegas 10

My list of things I need to do before heading to Vegas on Wednesday [tomorrow]:

  • Charge my scooter battery (not that I am driving it to Vegas… )
  • Pack (I’m taking two bags, one for clothes, one for tech gear)
  • Work 6 hrs (please let no stupid shit happen during that time)
  • Pack a rain coat (it’s still winter time, even in Vegas)
  • Charge phones (both my Treo and my iPhone)
  • Post this blog post (the fact that you are reading this means I can check off this item)
  • Remember to tell my brother-in-law “Happy Birthday” without mentioning how old he is (he’s older than I am)
  • and…. think positive about winning at the penny slots (I might play some roulette, too)

I think that’s it. Wish me luck. I’ll post again soon.

    Good luck!

    While not especially kind to me last time, I can at least say the slots were not terribly unkind, in that I walked away having won back most of what I lost. I hope that you come back richer than when you left, if not in coins then in well-being.

    In another lifetime, I worked Mon-Thurs in Vegas and flew home to Chicago on the weekends. Four months straight. I never imagined I’d spend so much time there and actually not hate it. Then again, I only went to the casinos once a week at most. Have a great time!!

    Wow, I haven’t been to Vegas in *years*. In fact, my girlfriend and I have never been together. Hey, I think 2010 is just the year to rectify that don’t you? 😉

    Have fun mate!

    vahid – Thank you. And winning back most of what you lost is actually good. Entertainment costs.

    ren – I will. Only wish I could have made it to your’s and Wayne’s birthday last month.

    kapgar – Ok. I will PayPal you the winnings…. 😉

    tori – Another roulette fan. Awesome.

    nilsa – WOW! You got me beat on my 4 times a year trips I used to take back in another life. That would wear on someone.

    sybil law – Thank you. I will try and win big.

    kevin – Yes, 2010 is the year you should go. Just don’t try and a repeat The Hangover and you’ll be fine. 😉
