    I am going crazy! Does anyone else do this? I am about 10 days out from my trip (according to my VMB trip countdown timer) and can't wait. I can't sleep and am just a wreck! We were just there for a weekend in early December so its not like we havn't been in a while. I just get so excited to go, and the last two weeks are the worst. I am online constantly looking at this site, and others ramping myself up. I am also killing time on the myvegas site trying to win a buffet for the trip, but they are constantly sold out. :grrr::grrr::grrr:

    Sigh...I wish I was leaving tomorrow!

    Please make time go faster......

    I feel your pain. These last couple of weeks are always the hardest. I haven't been in Vegas since June of 2012, so I'm certainly ready to find my way back! This is also the longest trip I've ever taken to Vegas! The anticipation nearly kills me.

    The torture of the wait! But I tell myself that I'm fortunate to have a trip planned. I'm not sure we will get out there again this year, but we were just there in January too.

    Hopefully all the stars will align and we can keep our Labor Day reservations at Bally's made BEFORE they initiated the resort fee! :grrr:

    I'm very excited, we leave Sat morn, and its been a year since we were out there! It really doesn't seem that long ago tho! I felt like our last trip flew by, and we didn't get to do nearly as much as we wanted to! I am soooo ready to go, two more days of work weds-thurs, and it will be nearly time! I set this trip up in early Dec so its been a long 4 months of waiting! Hope you all have a great time, I am sure you will!

    I keep checking restaurant menus.
    I keep checking showtimes.
    I keep checking this board.
    I keep thinking I should pack-even I never do until the night before or morning of.

    Nah... I am not like a kid at Christmas.

    Me too

    Our trip is May 11-15, we booked it back in December and got such a cheap flight, and cheap Flamingo room booked six months out! We do have fun anticipating though! Can't wait!!!
