Of birthdays and bullshit
My birthday was Sunday. A group of people from OH's place of employment & myself went to dinner at a terribly expensive steakhouse. Final tally, $600. Thank goodness the only actual cash that was spent was on the tip. The rest was comped. Sometimes it is good to know people.
Dinner conversation included stories about people from Las Vegas' past that met their demise under suspicious circumstances, gambling wins & losses (both personal & witnessed) and sexual exploits. I don't think the people running the posh eatery were terribly fond of our rowdiness. Oh well.
On the pilates front... I am completely insane. My body has been in positions I have only heard about, mainly from those exploits mentioned above. What really scares me, I actually enjoy the torture. The hour with my trainer goes by so terribly quick. I want to do it more. I think I may have to actually break down & buy a gym membership if I can find the cash. I'm digging this fitness thing & some cardio would do me good. Luckily I have a friend that I can workout with, so I think I have a chance of making it stick.
In 19 days I will get to see & hang out with Ang. It has been far too long since I have seen her. We had such a blast the last time she was here that I am really looking forward to her visit. We only got to hang out for a few hours, but we get along famously. Seriously, we are a forced to be reckoned with. I have taken several days off so as to be able to hang out properly. Which reminds me, I need to purchase some tickets. I love being a tour guide for people I like & I plan to take Ang to at least one place she has never been on her trips to Vegas. Hopefully there will be a lot of photographic evidence as well.
Now for something completely different... While reading Miss Nutter's blog she had a link to the following video. I have to give credit where it's due. Enjoy.
