BlogWorld – Day 1 Evening

Saturday, November 17th, 2007

I left BlogWorld and hopped onto the monorail to get back to my hotel. Having been to Vegas two times before, I was excited to ride the monorail. It wasn’t here my two prior visits. You still end up doing a ton of walking, but it definitely does help to get around. The monorail dropped me off at the Hilton. I then walked to my hotel.

Actually, my hotel wasn’t really a hotel at all. Instead, it is a Hilton timeshare. What is a timeshare? Basically, what I did was to rent condos for the 3 nights I was there (actually make that 1 condo for all three nights). Bill and I did not buy a condo. We just borrowed my inlaws. I do think you can buy these as condos for sale. I know this is super confusing. However, since we don’t belong to this, I have a very limited understanding of it. The room was gorgeous. I love staying in places that are better than my house. I had a king size bed for all of me. It was great. Since there was only me staying there, I only got the studio. However, if Bill would have come with, I definitely would have gotten the 1 bedroom. Otherwise, we would have been on top of each other and driving one another bananas.

Once I got settled, I met up with several other bloggers for dinner at a German place there. Anybody who was with — please let me know the name. Bill has been to Germany, and I would love to see if he went there or not. However, I do not know the name of the place. I took a couple of pictures. For some reason, a lot of pictures turned out really dark, so bear with me.

I forgot to take a picture of the beer. It was huge (like a liter of beer). Dinner took forever, but it was good and fun to meet up with everyone!

TGIF

Friday, November 16th, 2007

I swear this has been the longest week ever.  I still need to blog about last weekend, and it is already this weekend.  I think I have been jetlagged all week.  My kids have been driving me bananas, and my house looks like a tornado has went through it.  The bad thing is that we have a semibusy weekend planned and are going to Green Bay for Thanksgiving, so I really need to get this stuff done.  I have all the pictures in Flickr — I just need to blog about it.

I hope everyone has a great weekend planned!

3. Men are like … Weather … Nothing can be done to change them.
4. Men are like … Blenders… You need One, but you’re not quite sure why.
5. Men are like … Chocolate Bars … Sweet, smooth, & they usually head right for your hips.
6. Men are like … Commercials … You can’t believe a word they say.
7. Men are like … Department Stores … Their clothes are always 1/2 off.

9. Men are like … Mascara … They usually run at the first sign of emotion.
10. Men are like … Popcorn … They satisfy you, but only for a little while.
