Viva Las Vegas

So much for a quiet year. My lovely wife called me yesterday and relayed that she had made The Trip. She is in sales and the company she’s a reps for awards a trip to those agents that make their preset requirements. She knew that she was close at the end of the year but had a few pending cases. They confirmed that everything was a go and viola, we are off to Sin City.

I have never been to Vegas. I have not even been to Nevada. I know that we will be in some new swanky high rise hotel that I could never afford on my own. I am sure that there will be golf and maybe a show. I am not really a big gambler but I will take a few hundred bucks to dump into the machines. I am actually looking forward to just getting away for a few days. I think this trip is only 5 days, starting on Sunday, so it won’t be too bad on the kids.

They also announced next year’s trip. If you meet the requirements, you will be going to Disney World in beautiful Orlando Florida. They have kicked this one up a notch though. We are allowed to take our families with us to Disney. The kids will love that. The last time I went to Disney, it cost a small fortune and I was not impressed with the experience. I pretty much told myself that I would not be going back for a long while. Well, I may be going back next year, but on someone else’s dime. Gotta love sales.

So, I’ll need to bone up on my blackjack rules and my slot machine strategy before April. I am sure that there will be more to do than just gamble but while in Rome. Or is it what goes on in Vegas, stays in Vegas. I’m confused.
