Viva Las Vegas

I had one of my awesome moments today where I said something before I really thought about it. I do that sometimes, usually when I'm tired or bored.

So a guy in the office (who may or may not be younger and not-ugly) says how he's going on vacation soon. (And this happened during the staff meeting, so everyone was there.) He joked he was going to get married which made us all laugh because he gives off that "player" persona. Anyway, I thought I heard him say Vegas so I exclaim:


"OH If you get married I will be SO jealous!"


Can you imagine how that could be mistaken?


Very quickly I said, "I mean, if you did the Vegas marriage thing. That came out wrong! I just meant that I've always said that if I go to Vegas I'm coming back married."



Luckily I realized that my best bet for avoiding any embarassment was to just stop talking. So I did.

I went to Vegas. I did not get married. But I know what you mean.

While I was there, on the way out to the pool, I saw Ron Jeremy. Pre-Surreal Life. It was very funny.

Actually on a trip that included Vegas, I asked my g/f to marry me. We happen to be in Mexico where it said marriage and divorce, so I thought it'd be fun to do both, but she said no.

Ok, so we weren't in Vegas but the 72 hours straight we were awake included it =)

That was our first date, btw. Man, I should share that story. Maybe it would be interesting?

Scarlet, he is gross. But seriously, how much more Vegas do you get than running into a porn star on your way out to the pool?
