vegas, baby, vegas.....

you know what's kinda lame when you're sick??

VEGAS!!!

went to vegas this weekend. i've had this trip planned for a few weeks, but ended up getting a wicked case of the flu. after going back and forth about it, we decided to still go to vegas.



the 5 hour drive there kinda sucked as i was feeling pretty miserable that day. after arriving, we settled in the hotel and i took a short nap. then, we got ready and went out to dinner at a place in the planet hollywood hotel and to a nightclub at mgm grand afterwards. it was fun, we had some drinks, talked to some guys, but i wasn't feeling well. i had a bad cough and sore throat, stuffy nose (and funny voice to match), fluid in my ears, and a fever. i actually felt a little delirious walking around....almost like i was drunk even before my first drink. at least i'm a cheap date :)

our hotel room was sweet. we stayed at the marriott that's just off the strip, onlya block away. it had a full kitchen (with fridge, oven, dishwasher, etc.) and a full living room.



and the location was pretty sweet, nestled between mgm grand and planet hollywood. all the great places were in a very short walking distance. there was so much i wanted to do while there - i still haven't seen the venetian, i wanted to do a little gambling, walk along the strip with a big eiffel tower shaped fruity drink - but unfortunately i didn't get to do any of that.

overall, not the worst trip ever, but i don't plan on visiting vegas again while sick. although, with my funny nasally voice and my off-balance stumble due to my ear fluid, i probably fit right in.

out.
