So here I am: Vegas

The flights were fairly uneventful, except there was a birthday girl in the 3.5 hr flight, and as her party drank, they became more and more obnoxious. I found myself relieved I’d brought my earplug-like headphones.

While waiting in line, I learned some new things. The guy next to me in line works on the software for the largest slot machine producer in the world, and while I was talking about some of the hotels I had to visit this week, I mentioned Green Valley Ranch. He said that was really designed for the locals (rather than tourists), and that the slots pay better there. Huh!

Also, any of you who are interested in seeing the Star Trek Experience had better do it soon – he flat out said the Hilton isn’t going to renew their contract, because it isn’t making enough money, so once it expires, poof! Transporter malfunction, Abort, Retry, Fail.

Tomorrow’s my first official day on the job. Either I’ll be totally chilling until my first video at 3, or they’ll have me running about.

K.T. and Jes both come in tomorrow, so I expect tomorrow evening will be a hoot!

airplanes
take you away again
are you flying above where we live
then i look up, a glare in my eyes
are you having regrets about last night
i’m not, but i like rivers that
rush in
so then i dove in
is there trouble ahead for you, the acrobat
i won’t push you, unless you have a net

you say the word you know i will find you
or if you need some time i don’t mind
i don’t hold on to the tail of your kite
i’m not like the girls that you’ve known
but i believe i’m worth coming home to
kiss away night
this girl only sleeps with butterflies
with butterflies
so go on and fly then, boy

  3. I’ve heard Green Valley is great and beautiful. I know some people go there that arent residents. (my friends who went) george clooney has two bars there.
    However, I wrote this to tell you this important information…
    In the Venetian, in the food court is vico’s burritos and they are delicious and inexpensive. You should try one if you get out to do anything :) (I love burritos!)
