Condensing

On Mondays I really have a lot of work to do, so my blogging suffers. Don't my bosses know where my priorities lie? I must blog, and work gets in the way. But blogging definitely does not help pay for that 50 inch TV in the den, so I must work.

This weekend was nice, I had my dad's side of the family over for a get-together, and my cousin and I DDR'd it until we collapsed. Although the children, THEY wanted to play along too, what the heck was that all about? Don't they know toys are not for kids??

We, well, meaning the girls, had two soccer games this weekend, one at 7 a.m. and one at 4 p.m. And no, I didn't get a nap in dammit. Rug's team got slaughtered by a bunch of mean 7 year olds, but AL scored two goals and they won 6-1.

I have begun my Vegas trip planning. Next year is the Vajanaland-coupling's 10 year wedding anniverary. (yes, AL will be 10 next year, why do you ask?) We decided a long time ago that we wanted to renew our vows in Las Vegas, have us a real party since our last wedding involved a shotgun and a not-so-white dress. No, that's not true. It was really more of an antique white.

Anyway, I have started my research, and since LP has never been there and I only spent the night there in a parking lot (Long Story), we don't have too much experience with it. Neither one of us are gamblers. I have slimmed down my hotel choices to the Mirage, the Venetian or Treasure Island. If anyone has any recommendations, ideas, suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated!! I did see we can get our vows renewed by Rodney Dangerfield or Tom Jones, so that's a total bonus.

Okay, and last of all, to finish off my Monday post, one of my All Time Favorite Toys was voted #16 on PCWorld's list of top 50 gadgets from the last 50 years!!! Woo hoo!

Speak and Spells were cool. I loved mine.

Back in 1999, Hubby and I went to Vegas. I loved Treasure Island. Their buffet was awesome! :)

The Venetian was impressive, but felt "cold". We didn't go in the Mirage.
