Well I made it

Once again, I got myself all worked up for nothing. I still hate flying, but it's never as bad as I expect it to be. I actually had a good time. I flew in Monday though and was so tired! I fell asleep before 9 p.m. Vegas time. The good thing is that I got about 9 hours of sleep that night. Then Tuesday was our work meeting. We finished up kind of early, so we headed out to Red Rock Canyon. It was pretty cool!



After checking out the canyon, we headed back to our hotel to go out to dinner and head out to the strip. Of course we saw the show at the Bellagio,


And this awesomeness inside,


And they were all decorated for Christmas too,



Then we just kind of wandered around,

This was my third time there for work and the first time I actually gambled. And I now know that my bad luck is just as bad in Vegas as it is anywhere else.

So Wednesday morning my flight was scheduled to leave at 7 a.m. Tuesday night I figured, well, I have to get up at 4 a.m., so why even bother going to sleep...I can sleep on the flights. So I did it, I actually stayed up. I didn't think I had it in me! My plan of sleeping on the plane didn't work out so well though. I slept for like an hour on and off on the first flight and after that I was ready to go. Needless to say, when I got home Wednesday night I had no energy. I mean hello, I was up for like 36 hours straight! So I got home, ate something and passed out on the couch by like 7:15 p.m. So that night I got about 11 hours of sleep...pretty awesome!
