Vegas Baby!

Ok, here is the breakdown of my trip:

Sunday
So my trip starts off on a fine note. Me and Jessica woke up at 7:30AM and left at 8:00AM. We only stopped twice on the trip, and made it to Vegas by 4:00PM. We met my mom, and had some wonderful Italian food at Francesco's. After that, we just walked down the strip, got a couple of drinks, and hung out at a lounge listening to funny covers of things like Pink's "Lets Get This Party Started".

Monday
Monday was very fun. What was great about getting this free hotel room hooked up through my mom, was that we also got a bunch of money towards free food at the hotel. After waking up at a late hour, we got some food at the deli, then headed up the strip. Lots of shopping ensued. I got some new clothes, courtesy of Jessica. Later that night, we went to see Blue Man Group. At first I was skeptical, but it turned out to be really awesome, and involved the audience more than I thought it would. The music was excellent. Afterwards, we went to Nine Fine Irishmen and got tons of meat, potatos, and beer, the way things should be.

Tuesday
Tuesday was a basic, walk around and look at all the shiny things day. We visited my mom at the jewelry store she is currently working at. Its really weird to see my mom working after so many years of her being a house mom. More good food ensued. Dinner was for free at ISLA, which was really nice, since it would have cost us about $85 dollars for a dinner for two, had we spent money and not gotten a free meal through the hotel there. It was pretty sad, every day, we couldn't get the energy to go out to a club or anything since we walked around all day. But it was nice that we got a hotel room all to ourselves ;) .

Wednesday
On wednesday we had to leave the confines of our hotel, and shack up at my mom's place. We went swimming at the pool and basically just chilled all day hangin out with my Japanese grandma.

Thursday
Thursday was the sucky day. We drove all day. All went well till we got back on I-5 North. All of a sudden, my tire tread got ripped off the rear driver's side tire. And we were temporarily stranded in the middle divide of a boring stretch of road. On the bright side, turns out I got to use my spare tire. On the downside, I now need to replace the rear tires. But it gets worse, I got gas at this shady 76 station. And immediately after that (AKA .25 miles), my car wasn't running quite right, and even died sometimes. A plague on that station. Finally I got home. And here I am.
