Vegas trip

#1 Post by christie1111 » Sat Dec 13, 2008 12:15 pm

So when is it?

I am feeling that since I don't get to go to Toronto, I may need to go to Vegas.

Airfare is cheap to there.

And if LB is going...............

This has just got to happen. And if my sister comes, I won't make beast join us for Barry Manilow.

Promise.

I'll even sweeten the pot.

Tell ya what, lb. We can use my Director's Club card and bunk together at the Grand. (Wellman can vouch for me being a good bunkmate. I only get a little handsy and want to spoon when I'm drunk and half asleep.)

If it's the worry that the airline will make you part with your box cutter that's holding you back, just hop in the LBN and come out to my place. Then we can pack up Mary Jean and head out on the highway. I'll even give you free reign over my CD collection!

I'll be there April 14-16, but if that's not convenient we can plan something in June or July.

That's usually around the week I take off every September for my KC trip (Not that I'd be going to Vegas of course :P ), but I checked the schedule this year, and for the first time in 4 years, the Royals are on the friggin' road that whole week! And it's &#*@ Boston who's coming the week after that, which is not my idea of a good September KC trip (i.e., I love it when the attendance doesn't reach 5 figures).....

My vacation is ruined next year! :evil:

Considering he's a young guy from a big city and not some codger from the sticks, I'm guessing he's seen worse.
