We've been Fogged

So while at work tonight the fog began to roll in and became increasingly denser each hour. By the time I left to go home, I couldn't see much more than 30-40 feet in front of me. I love fog.
Last night though, there was no fog at all. This is a photo from the 5th floor of the Legacy building just behind Dickson St.

Every week after Winter League around 20 of us choose a restaurant as our victim and swoop in to order massive amounts of beer and food all at the same time while being as loud as possible as well. We spent yesterday at Hogwild since it is only a few blocks from the fields and they also have a very large television with couches in front of it for watching sports. And so here we are, watching sports, wondering where our pizza is seeing as we ordered it a whole 3 minutes ago.

Not for the squeemish

So two months ago this week I played in an ultimate tournament with my new cleats which resulted in this. I knew my toe-nail had died from cleat abuse, but I didn't know how close it was to coming off until this morning when I tried putting on my sock and it just flipped up. No pain or anything, just a clean rip. A little gross I know, but kinda funny.
Eeewwwwwwww....
Before it was totally ripped off.

My mom, my step-dad, my step-brother and I all went to Las Vegas together last week for a few days of gluttonous fun. This basically entailed sitting at a buffet, sleeping, sitting at a roulette wheel, then sitting on a bus for an hour in order to sit at a roulette wheel in a different casino. Then this of course was followed by yet another buffet and more sleeping. What a great week.
Inside Ceasars Palace, by far one of my favorite hotels.
Light show in the old down town where we stayed.
In front of the Luxor.
Fire show in Ceasars.
I got to see my Uncle Bill his wife and his kids, my two cousins for the first time in over 2 years.

Myself all fancied up pushing my step-brother lucas around. This was either at 9pm or 4am.

I beat about 13 kids and my mom at this game of horse racing and won the grinch.

My first slots!
My lucky table with my lucky number 17. I couldn't have done it without my blue dress, a pair of sparkly high heels and a fella named Angelo.


Also note the man in the background shaking his finger at me saying, "No, no, no. No camera at the roulette wheel!"

On the way to vegas I felt like i was passing over a landscape from "The Land Before Time."


This is a tank within the pool at the hotel that held a ton of fish, not to mention several sharks. Also note the slide running through the center of this tank.
The largest Golden Nugget on display in the world.
