And afterwards in the bathroom, there was a girl puking. Either she gorged herself, in which case I feel sorry for her, or she's a bulemic. I had to think about that for a while: is Las Vegas a bulemic's dream or nightmare? On the one hand, you get all these yummy foods before you barf, but on the other hand...you just paid twenty bucks to gag all that food up? Weak.
We went to the gym this morning, so that totally counteracts the buffet, right?
Chuck Z suggests the Rio buffet. Gourmet magazine recommends their seafood buffet as the best in Vegas, so it was on my list of potential things I want to spend $40 on. I'm trying not to be a cheapskate and do one nice meal per day, and then cook something here or do something light for the opposite meal. Tonight we will have a small dinner before heading to a saucy show.
It's hard for me to part with $75 each for show tickets, but I had a talk with myself this morning: In six months when my husband is gone, would we pay $150 to sit together in a dark room watching a sexy show? Absolutely. So why not do it now while we have the chance.
We're having fun. Really, I don't need to spend money to have fun; I just like doing anything with my husband. Sitting in the hot tub, being on the internet, riding on a movable sidewalk, all of these are even satisfying as long as he's here with me. (And the movable sidewalk, that's one of the good parts of life!)

I'm loving it that you are practically live-blogging your getaway...it reminds me: the other night I found an article online saying that families were spending less time together and internet use was increasing...so I sent an email with a link to the artcile to my husband who was surfing online in the livingroom (while I was on my computer in the home office). We chuckled...but he argued that the internet actually allows more sharing...he said, that before perhaps it was considered together time when a husband and wife sat on the sofa together and each read different books...while surfing the internet allows you to send links to people to share whatever you are just reading...so maybe it actually increases communication?
And the Rio buffet is pretty good. I've been there 2x.

the food court at Caesar's is pretty great and "reasonable" for Vegas Prices. Â Also the Burger joint in the hallway between Paris and Bally's with the slutty French waitresses has stupid good burgers and fries.

Another fun thing to do--get dressed up--businesslike--and go to the casinos. People will ask you for directions. always fun to give directions, especially when you've no idea where you are going.

I'm glad you're having a good time. It's your boyfriend's birthday today. I told him you were with your husband in Vegas. He whined (again) that he has never been. I told him if he behaves, maybe you'll let him tag along next time.
