Hmm, the obvious question then is...who's the girl?

Mousey Girl · 08-23-2010, 10:07 AM

That is what I am wondering. I know he has mentioned Bren this summer. She was his fiance back in daycare. They remet last year. Kids from her elementary scool kept coming up to him and asking him if he knew her, because she was looking for him. He had mentioned that she was still really cute.

I think, at thi point, it is not a particular girl, but just girls in general.

Good timing on my part since I had his dad talk to him about girls last week.

Friends had a renewal of vows for their 20th wedding anniversary. It was held at the Graceland Wedding Chapel. I was expecting kitsch and maybe a chuckle or two, but we were all pleasantly surprised by how much FUN the whole thing was! I will refrain from going into too many details as I know Coaster Matt and Mad Monkey Girl are doing the same thing for their tenth (after all: Jon Bon Jovi was married there!). But if you are invited, I say it is worth the trip. Heck, even if you aren't invited, it is worth the trip.

And I spent an entire weekend in LV and did not gamble once!

And due to FOUR accidents (one at State Line and three in/near Baker), it took 6-1/2 hours to get home. Just before Baker, a CHP officer was driving along the right shoulder (with his lights on of course). A few minutes after he passed us, we came upon him changing a blown tire. It was 104 degrees out, so I stopped to offer my assistance. He declined, but thanked me.

And, on the trip out, there was an entire freeway closure, but we were able to quickly get off at Jean (NV) just before the Highway Patrol started diverting traffic off there. Beat most of the crunch, so we didn't lose much time on that.

Tom and I are now empty-nesters since both my kids are now in college, one in Ohio and the other in North Carolina. I'm trying to get to Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last! (to blaspheme Dr. King, sorry) but I'm kind of blue.

Aww. I'm sure you'll have a blue period then perk up once you convert your newly available room into a disco.

When I was coming home from Vegas last year the 15 was closed before Stateline due to a fire. No exits around so we had an impromptu tailgate party.

Looks like this year the 15 south was closed as we were driving out.

And if you FourSquare on your way out look for the places to hide the bodies on the 15*. It's around Zyzzyx. Hell, just check FourSquare, the check-in points are fun.

*I created it on our way home and I am highly amused that there have been 29 check-ins and there is a Mayor.

Okay, so I haven't posted in a while and I can't keep up with every thread, but I do visit every day and at least check this thread. I usually just don't have anything relevant to add. I guess this is a mistake. If I involved myself a little more, maybe if one of you is making a three-day trip to Portland specifically to see a concert AT MY ZOO, you might mention it before hand!

Of course, I do realize that it was Alex...

The latest issue of Vanity Fair has an interview with Lady Gaga. Fascinating person, I really liked the interview. Loved the photos. Never seen one of her videos nor heard a not of her music.

I like her songs. They're fun. Her outfits are pretty out there.
