As per astrological calendars, today is the final day of my birthday month. Woo hoo! Concluded with a new iPhone 4 too. I will show off the other bitchin’ gift Somara gave me before we left for Vegas, once I … Continue reading →

The day’s not over yet as I wrap up my errands to wish them well. They’ve always been married since I met them so I often forget for how long. They’re cool friends and bosses! Bosses? I do a little … Continue reading →

The day we dreaded arrived, the one in which we have to go home and say goodbye to Las Vegas until next time. However, we promise to make it back in a year, not in two as the current pattern … Continue reading →

Sadly our final full day of Las Vegas. We could’ve had another but due to previous obligations in Austin (doctor appointment, concert, so on) and an error about which vacation times to take. Tried to make the best of it … Continue reading →

Saturday morning was another day to knock out the last planned thing on our agenda, the Las Vegas Gun Store. The last time we were in town, we spotted the brochure in the lobby of our timeshare. Normally a shooting … Continue reading →

Today, I will be returning to work after being away from the grind for 10 days. I think it’s the longest, intentional paid break I’ve ever taken in my life. If not, it’s the first one I’ve ever remembered going … Continue reading →

Our first full-day in Las Vegas and it was an eventful whopper too! So much, the major pieces will be broken down into separate entries when I return to Austin because these attractions were awesome. I also don’t want to … Continue reading →

Since I’m in Vegas, one of my favorite cities because it’s relaxing, awesome and a weird microcosm of the Western Empire, I will be a bit more incommunicado to celebrate why July 29 is all about me. Bear with me … Continue reading →

Before the deadline expires (I do gain two hours out here in Vegas), I want to express my birthday wishes to a fellow Leo and French speaker. How I wish I had her natural talent for picking up another language … Continue reading →
