    I'm finally only one week away from my trip to Vegas.
    Tonight......I'm an Insomniac howling at the moon
    enjoying a stiff drink while I'm mentally already there, IN
    Vegas.
    The bartender has a top shelf Long Island waiting for me.
    Gambling Options everywhere.
    The opportunity to see where Vegas takes me.
    It's the whole Dr.Seuss, Oh the places I'm going to GO type
    Vibe right now.
    It's happening again.
    And, well, I'm ready to RoCk!






    I'm sure you know some aspect of this feeling!

    me too, nine days away and I have made and remade plans, I have the first 2 days planned almost down to the hour with both a plan A and a plan B......85% of which will never get accomplished so the final outcome will be a plan C. Sitting here with my drink planning stuff is almost the best part of a Vegas trip.

    Oh forgot to mention...the meet and greet at the Book and Stage at Cosmo is top of my list. I am pencilling in a Long Island for that as we speak. Don't actually recall having had one of those before.

    Can't wait!
    This drink, when prepared right, will most definitely
    Ignite the beginning (or continuation) of any good time!

    Meet up is going to be fun!
    Looking forward to meeting some like minded individuals!

    I've been consumed with a project at work since my last trip in August; weekends, holidays, lots of late nights. We went live 4 weeks ago and just completed our stabilization period with much success. And now that the smoke has cleared I realize that tomorrow starts the 10 day countdown! Nothing makes me appreciate these trips more than working like a dog leading up to the trip - especially when the bonus covers the trip and the next two.... So my usual month or two of anticipation is now condensed to a few days, of course I'm planning what I'll do for the four days but ultimately I'll do what I usually do, just wing it!

    I've had Vegas on my mind NONSTOP for almost 2 months now. I'm still a week and a half away. I took a half day off work on Monday just because I am trying to speed up the waiting time until my trip. I've run through my upcoming trip in my mind countless time. And of course on VMB constantly too.

    In less than 48 hours, I will be pulling into new york new york for an incredible 4 night stay. I'm hoping to get to bed early on Thursday so I can get rested before Friday. That's not likely to happen, unfortunately.
