So I'm back from my Vegas trip.
(All work and no play makes Mike a dull boy.) It was great to get out and recharge my batteries and to see colleagues from around the world – but I'm happy to be home with my girls again.
4 • Number of nights spent at the swank Red Rocks Spa and Casino in Las Vegas.
160 • Starting nightly rate for a hotel room at the hotel. (Thank god for the conference discount!)
12 • Approximate miles from "the strip."
0 • Minutes spent actually on "the strip."
75 • Gambling losses. (Pai Gow is lots of fun and slightly addictive – I'm glad my group left the table while I still had some chips in my hand.)
75 • Total amount spent on gambling. (That's right – ZERO winnings. I rule.)
2 • Average time I went to bed.
7:30 • Average time I woke up in the morning.
2 • Number of drinks actually purchased for myself during the entire trip.
? • Number of drinks actually consumed. (There's a lot of free booze in Vegas.)
4 • Strikes bowled at the Casino's VIP lanes.
2 • Number of sessions I actually chose to attend. (The rest of the time I was running around working the conference.)
1 • Pay-per-view movies watched from the comfort of my room when I was feeling slightly antisocial. (No, not one of THOSE movies ... )
10 • Number of seconds it took Kaylee to want to go to Rae once all three of us were finally in the same place again. :-P
All in all a great trip. I can't wait to go back – but next time, I'll take Rae with me. Who wants Kaylee for a weekend?!
