Hello and Good Morning
This is like my thing now, isn't it? I have nothing particular to bring to the board so I just come in and say good morning.
Fent and I watched six episodes of How I Met Your Mother last night and spoke to a drunk Groomz, which was pretty cute.
I'm just here for about 2 hours, so if anything interesting is going to be said today, I prefer it be within that window.

I also woke up with some serious sinus issues this morning. I just blew my nose so hard that snot got in my eyelashes. I'm just that boring that this is all I have to offer.
I finally have nothing particular to do today and it's wonderful. I should do some schoolwork but that's probably not going to happen.
How is Fenton? I haven't seen her around this week but I guess she could've gotten lost among all the Kindle Kwestions.
Fun cmc! Where are you staying? Shows in Vegas are pretty pricey. Are you willing to get spendy? D never is, so mostly we've always gone to shows that demon sis had free tickets to, like the shows at her hotel, or show's she's been in, etc. You should go see the lions at the MGM. Free and I could sit around and look at lions while you booze it up. If I were going to spend money on a show, I'd go to any of the Circque shows. They're pretty much all awesome. I saw one a couple years back but I forget which one. I also really enjoyed the aquarium at Mandalay Bay. That's a really gorgeous hotel. And everyone loves the free water show at the Bellagio. Actually, there's a really nice bar at the Bellagio that demon sis always made us go to. Pricey, but it looks out over the water show and its got a fun, fancy feel.
Since I know you enjoy the shopping and the fashion, I will say that the nice hotels on the strip have some amazing shopping. The Venetian has great stores, and cool atmosphere. Lots of statute people.
Anyway, are you more interested in high-end fun or super kitsch? For super kitsch I'd take a taxi to the old strip on Fremont street. The Fremont street "show in the sky" is kind of fun, and the area has lots of street performers and the cheesy "old Vegas" feel.
Dang girl...that takes some talent!
I remember once when my allergies were bad I blew my nose, completely missed the tissue, and got it ALL over my hands.
Ahhhh how I love snot talk in the morning...
It's raining here. It's making the massive piles of gray gross snow even grosser. Yippee!
I'm rocking out to Florence and the Machine and trying my hardest to make it to lunch today. There are even less people here today than there have been all week.
I just spent my Christmas monies. I couldn't wait anymore. I really hope my grandma actually gives me the $50 I'm expecting on Saturday because I already spent it.
The nerve!

And cmc - I strongly recommend you go to a late breakfast at Hash House a Go Go. You may not want to eat for the rest of the day after that. I wasn't going to recommend it because it's pretty far from the strip and not practical without a rental car, but apparently they now have a second location at the M Resort, which is about 10 miles south of Mandalay Bay. So, still a cab ride from the main drag, but not to far, and totally worth it. Pancakes the size of your head. No. Bigger. The size of MY head. It's insane and amazing and I love it.

And looking at the website, they apparently also have a location at the Imperial Palace, right on the main drag. Not my favorite hotel at all, but convenient.
OMG, yum. The gallery on the website is like food porn.

Excellent, thank you. Meet me there and I will pay you in pancakes the size of your head for your services.

I'm excited to spend mine. I tried on Sunday but I only had a short time and couldn't find anything I liked. Boo.
I'm sorry you're stuck working Cali. That blows. At least you have my texts from last night to entertain you. Just read them over and over. But don't text me. My phone is in the other room and I don't want to get up.
cmc - Sorry. Vegas is on my "not so long as that biitch is within 100 miles of the city limits" list right now. But I do suggest you go to Planet Hollywood and walk by the Pleasure Pit making snide comments about the slutty dealers.
We're going to the Holiday Bowl parade this morning and the Holiday Bowl tonight. One of my adulterous friends will be there and we told him we were uncomfortable with how everything went down and didn't really want to hang out with him at the game or.parade. Now if we run in to him it will be super awky.

Good morning. I'm playing with my SS gifts from Hezz and trying to get the motivation to make myself something to eat.
All of this Vegas info is awesome, we are hopefully going there sometime in Feb or March, and neither of us have ever been. Is the outlet shopping as crazy awesome as I hear? What are the best/worst hotels to stay in? There are some great deals on expedia. Makes me want to book it now now now.
Ouch, Noisy.
Awkward. I hope you manage to avoid him. Maybe you should all wear ski masks and carry guns, just in case. That oughta do it.
I'm having toast and popcorn for lunch. I'm a child.
Husbands should be like Kleenex: Soft, strong, and disposable.
I'm going to be super exciting today too and go to Petsmart, a local specialty store called Trader Joe's, and Kroger.
I'm debating whether or not I want to go to a vigil for one of my students who died yesterday. She died trying to put out a fire in her house that was accidentally started by her dad sleeping with a hair dryer pointed at his feet in bed. It set the mattress on fire. They tried to put it out and couldn't and then they couldn't get out in time. I just don't get the dad's thought process there and it's making me really mad. She was a great girl and it's going to be really weird on Monday not having her in class. I should probably go to the vigil.
