Vegas Baby
February 29, 2008 by mistyjade
So I flew off to Vegas to spend my Valentines Day as a VIP in Sin City…
Maybe I’d find Mr. Right among the Slots? It was highly unlikely but it was fun looking!
Just because the last time I flew somewhere I ended up sitting next to a Hot guy who asked for my number (AKA Mr. Oakland: Read this to catch up!). I actually got all dolled up to go to the airport! I’m sure I looked so California! (At least I didn’t bust out the spiked heels right?)
No Luck on the plane but I still had high hopes for the weekend.
It was actually a Sister trip. Two of my Wicked Sisters, the Bro-in-Law, my two nieces and my sister’s friend. For our Fancy-Schmanzy Valentines dinner we went to NobHill at the MGM Grand. Let me tell you the Cable Car Martini was to die for! I’m drooling just thinking about it!
My poor Bro-In-Law was surrounded by women. Just to keep his macho side in evidence he ordered a $200 steak… It was worth every penny (He even let us all sample… probably $20 a bite). Since my sister and bro-in-law are VIP at the MGM me and my other sister get to ride on their coat-tails. We got free tickets to “Crazy Horse Paris” and VIP entrance to Studio 54 one night and Tabu the next.
Umm the “Crazy Horse Paris” is a burlesque show which I thought would be like “Folies Bergere’” but was more stripping and less show. Lets just say it wasn’t the type of show to see with your sister! We walked out half way through, much to the disappointment of the arab couple seated across from us who get a little too friendly when they found out we were sisters.
We ended up hanging out at the Bar across from Tabu for some drinks. There was a big fight one night and I kept running into trainers the day before in the elevators. Who knew boxing trainers were so cute? Anyways when we got to the bar the fight had just finished and there was an endless parade heading out of the casino. So we sat back and enjoyed some serious people watching… unfortunately the people were watching back! I had two weird guys hit on me (One was a senior the other was just odd) My sister was killing me cause she kept taking pictures of them and then they’d kiss my cheek! Then my hand! Then ask for my number! Eek!
The best part was when a group of college types walked by, four guys and their girls.
The drunkest guy stopped and looked down my shirt…
Pointed to my chest (while leaning heavily on his girl)…
And shouted “BOOBIES!”
I haven’t even finished reading this whole post, but I’m already a fan!
And I ALWAYS dress up to go to the airport. Or Starbucks. Or the grocery store….Because you just never know. It rarely pans out. I’m just the most overdressed person in Whole Foods. But you just never know, and darn it, I’m going to be propertly attired should the opportunity (i.e. Man) present it/himself!
Thanks!
I keep meeting guys in the oddest places so I need to kick it up a notch more often!
