This last week I was in lovely Las Vegas at a conference- and by conference, I mean the boring thing you have to listen to before you can enjoy a free vacation. (It’s kind of like a timeshare presentation, but you can’t show up hungover because your boss is there.)

Admittedly, the ice got pretty well broken with the boss. Her suitcase came out of the chute onto the baggage carousel and exploded. And I mean zipper bursting open in cartoon-fashion, all her stuff going around the carousel. Nothing breaks the ice like grabbing armfuls of your bosses underwear.

But despite the conference, I did my part to stimulate the Vegas economy. Note to self: Google gambling strategies before walking up to a roulette table with $40 melting a hole in your pleather clutch.

And the best part? I got to meet another blogger! Kaitlin from Ah My Married Life was in Vegas with her Hubs, and we went up the strip to see the Bellagio water show.

I missed Marmot like crazy, but it was fun to see Vegas and way fun to meet a fellow blogger-friend!
