Lena & I went to Vegas this last weekend for her company's Christmas party. We had a good time, although we're not big fans of the Vegas. Here are some highlights:
- The huge room at Planet Hollywood, with the most comfortable beds, dual sinks, and amazing bath tub!
- Lena screaming in her sleep from dreaming of a "huge snail". Scared the crap out of me!
- Seeing some of the cool architecture with the hotels.
- Watching the Bellagio water fountain show thing, felt like I was on Oceans 11!
- Free food. Free good food.
- Coming home.
Being in Vegas just made my heart hurt. Although Lena and I had a good time, I felt like I had to wash Vegas off of me when getting home. I just felt dirty, even though I did nothing dirty. Walking down the street and getting obscene stares and gestures isn't very fun. And I wasn't asking for it, wearing a winter coat, flat shoes, and ponytail. Maybe it would have been better if I had a guy with me, but, I had the gorgeous Lena :). Walking in the casinos and seeing the table and pole dancers, and worse the dirty men staring at them, isn't fun either. It disgusts me to see people so drunk they can no longer stand, or think. It just made me feel extremely sad, seeing so many lost and broken people, trying to fill themselves in "sin city". I'm not judging, just wish they could experience real joy and love, not cheap thrills. So, I probably won't return, but am thankful I was able to spend a free weekend there with wonderful Lena!
