Blogworld Day 2 – Evening
After the Mark Cuban speech, I went back to my hotel and dropped all of my stuff off (basically, I had another entire bag of free swag). A bunch of bloggers were planning to meet at the Bellagio, so I had a little bit of time to catch the monorail and head over there. We met for the picture (which I need somebody to send me a copy of) and did a bit of gambling as you can see:
No matter what machine Colleen went on, she won. That girl is lucky. While we were out, I kept thinking that I had a rock in my shoe. Finally, I took my shoe off to see what was going on, and I realized that I had a blister. I wore a pair of shoes that I have owned for over ten years out there. I am thinking that was not a good idea. I should have invested in some Geox shoes or some Josef Seibel shoes instead. Those probably wouldn’t have given me blisters. We moved from the Bellagio to (I think) Paris. I think from there we went to the Imperial Palace (and we walked it). It didn’t really matter where I gambled — I didn’t win anything. I called it an early night from the Imperial Palace, since my feet were killing me, PostieCon was the next day, and I swear that they had their heat turned on. It was so hot in the casino there. (I think my early night got me back to my hotel at midnight — maybe a little before).

BlogWorld – Day 1 Late Evening
After we ate dinner, half of us took a cab and the other half rode with Julie and Michael to New York New York. We parked but I figure that Julie might need a GPS tracking system to find her car at the end of the night. Colleen wanted to ride the roller coaster. I had never done it before, so I figured why not. Let me tell you, I won’t do it again. Great coaster — really bumpy though. Colleen ended up bruising her elbow and I bruised my leg. It still was pretty fun. After that, we headed over to Coyote Ugly to see Michael’s brother. Here’s the really awesome thing — he got us in VIP. It was so cool in there. Here is a picture of the girls dancing on the bar:
I know the picture is super dark, so it may be hard to see. Thanks again Julie and Michael! After Coyote Ugly, we headed over to Harrah’s to meet up with several other bloggers that had arrived. You may have seen pictures of the traveling boa on others blogs. I think everyone at some point had it on (whether a picture got taken or not). I left with Mr. Fab since we were taking the monorail the same direction. I know Julie ended up staying out super late (Michael went back to Coyote Ugly to talk to his brother). Since I don’t know how much she had to drink after I left, I wonder if she needed gps vehicle tracking to find her car. Needless to say, I was very happy to go to bed, since I was super tired by this time.
