More pics of the girls

Here are a few of my favs of the "girl's draft" I will send a link to Kodak later...

Back in NV

Hello everyone!

I had an awesome time in VA and although I was sad to leave--there is something about coming home. I have attached some photos of my time in VA. The first weekend was the fantasy football draft so there are pics of Adam and his boys. Then I moved on to the Burg and had a night out with my mom for her birthday and then Thursday night out with the girls. Friday I spent with my nieces (below is a video of Alivia blowing bubbles-she had no idea i was shooting video). If you listen closely, you can hear her little sister give her words of encouragement. Then my BFF had a birthday party and more debauchery insued.

Love you guys and I miss you already!

HOME

I have been home in VA for a week now and it has been fantastic to see everyone. Adam did his draft in NOVA with the boys and i hung out with all the crazy chicas. It was so much fun! I then hit up the Burg and have been hanging with the parents, nieces and friends.

Last night we all hit the town and it was a great time. Ash's bday party is tomorrow and then back to Vegas on Sunday.

I am ready to get back to zero humidity and west coast time:) I miss my man too.
Pictures will be posted upon return.

I have had an awesome time but miss my bed and the 100 degree heat!

HANGING WITH TORI

Poolside with Tori on Wednesday, it has been so great to see her! We went out to LAX on Wednesday night and then i took her on a Vegas casino tour...Hard Rock for lunch at the Pink Taco and then to the Venetian and the Wynn. We ended the day with cocktails at Bahama Breeze. Always great to see people from home.

I have to go pack..see you all in a day or two..

Mid week

hey..Tori has landed she is in Vegas! I am going to catch up with her tomorrow and do some pool time and then take Adam to the airport to fly back to VA.

I am happy to have someone visiting, it brings some additional sunshine. And Tori is a newbie to Vegas so it should be interesting...

Thanks to Lonie for the above pics from last years pre-season game...GO STEELERS. Check out my bro's face on the second one (beside Tori). HA!

ALPO

Okay some background to how bad the job market it out here: NV is at about 60% unemployment and in Las Vegas alone 50% of all jobs are hospitality (casinos, etc). Well, since the economy craze the casinos are not doing so well because people are not flocking to Vegas to gamble. So, the casinos are laying off. Some are hiring, but the people that are getting laid off are flocking to those positions because they have the gaming and casino experience.
I can tell you first hand it is bad. I get responses to my resume all the time and it usually is this...the job you have applied for is on hold and we will resume hiring at the first of the year, please check back with us then.
With that said, i should not be surprised what happened to me this week. I went to the post office to mail a package and as I was getting into the car..this man chased me yelling, "Hey, hey i know you have a dog!" I quickly got into the vehicle and just stared at him and yelled, "no i do not have a dog!" This guy had a case of Alpo cans and was selling dog food in the parking lot for a dollar! So, yes times are not good for me, but I have not sunk to selling dog food in the parking lot. Plus--dog food? Sell condoms or cigartettes. this is Las Vegas!
