Vegas was good. i got there Thursday night after an insanely busy and stressful day. between connecting flights i would be walking through someone on very complex network configurations. we had servers down and sites down. i also was in the initial phases of a head cold. to say the least my flight there sucked.

I meet my friend Chuck there. we both arrived at about 7 PM, local time. by the time we got back to the hotel and checked in...etc it was about 9 and i was tired and not feeling good. but we went out anyways. we went to Planet Hollywood. they have a very cool bar and casino. they even had Go-go dancers above the card tables. we had a few drinks and caught up. one of the managers gave a free pass into the night club they have there. very trendy and hip place, not really what i wanted or expected to go to my first night, but we went anyways. this place was very posh but also very expensive. we had each a shot and a drink which cost us $60. didn't hang out their to late but did get a nice buzz and spent a shit ton of money in a short amount of time.

Friday i wake up way to early because of the 2 hr time change. i was very very tired that morning and was feeling even worse than the day before. we bummed around the strip on and off most of the day. that night Chuck's dad meet up with us and took us to a very good steak place then to a comedy club. despite my not feeling to good, i still had a ton of fun at the comedy club.

Saturday, i finally woke up feeling good. we started are day off early and i knew it was going to be good day by how nice the sun was shining. we had a kick ass meal at the Paris. that night we found our way to the 'Old Vegas'. now had i known about were this was at initially i don't think i would have spent any time on the strip. this was the Vegas i was hoping for. we had a kick ass time there. i also went to one of the coolest bars i have ever been to called the Griffin.

that is the short of it and was a pretty good 'G' rated version of my Las Vegas trip.
