Vegas Pics

My favorite thing about Vegas - The Buffets!!!! ha!

Madonna!

Corina, Alli, Me, and Emily - enjoying our very expensive strawberry margaritas at 1pm....

The last pic of Friday night - Emily was enjoying her beer!

No comment - just a fun, random pic.

My first slot - yes I was going for the big time - a whole penny!

Me and Emily at the Madonna concert.

Vegas Hangover!

Well, today is Monday and I somehow have made it to work! Emily and I landed in Dallas around midnight last night - it was good to get home after spending most of the day in the Vegas Airport. However, our trip was definately worth it!
We had so much fun! Friday night - we ate dinner, walked up and down the strip, playing some black jack and slots, and had a few cocktails. We were in bed by 1am - so it was an early night by Vegas standards! The next morning we got up early and headed for the Buffet! The casino was packed at 8:30 am!!! Some people looked as though they had not even been to bed yet!! ha! I decided to play a slot outside of the buffet and tripled my money (yes I made a whole $3.66) on a penny slot! I was so proud! This was after I lost $40 in black jack the night before....ha-ha! That afternoon, we met up with our friend, Alli (aka..Alli ass grabbin' adams, Alli Kat, or Sue Ellen Ewing) and some of her pals. We had a few cocktails and played 3 card poker and some more black jack. I laid at the pool for a while that afternoon and then started getting ready for the concert!! For dinner, Emily and I sat in a sports bar at our hotel and watched the first half of the Tech game (Go Raiders).
Madonna - The concert was amazing!! She came up out of the stage on a throne dressed in black with a top hat, cane, and long curly blonde hair...saying welcome to my candy shop! She played for 2 hours and it was so much fun - she sang a lot more hits than she usually does. It was not quite the production like the "confessions" tour - but it was much more intimate and fun!! I won't give away any more details - since I know some of you have not seen it yet - and it is best to be surprised when watching it!
That is pretty much my trip - Ill post pictures once I get home tonight!!!

The Day Before "Sticky and Sweet"

I am so not a person that would normally keep a blog - but thought it might be fun!



Well, today I am at work waiting and anticipating for my trip to Vegas! This will be my first time to go to Vegas and I am going with my dear friend, Emily (aka Pumpkin). We are going to see Madonna in her "Sticky and Sweet" Tour at the MGM Grand tomorrow night! I am soo excited. We have floor seats fairly close to the catwalk.



This will be my 2nd time to see Madonna. My first time through the wilderness was in June 2006. Damon, Emily, Alli, and I saw her at MSG in her "Confessions" tour - which was so awesome.



Next weekend, I will get to reunite with another dear friend, Karen! We are also going to see Madonna in Houston at Minute Maid Park! We have not seen each other since she came up with her daughter, Emma, to stay with me during Hurricane Rita back in 2005. I am looking forward to it! Hopefully, I don't gamble my life savings away this weekend........



Love,
