Viva Las Vegas

On Sunday I left for Las Vegas. Yep, gone for Christmas, back home a week, gone to ATL, home a week, then gone to Vegas... all I want is my bed and my puppy!

There is one thing I do love about Las Vegas - the awesome food!! Seriously people, Erin does not turn down free five star food. I had a steak at Mastro's that would make you change religions and tell your grandmomma to her face.

I must preface before I get too far into this post that there was a little chaos Sunday before I left. I woke up and had that all too familiar pain in my throat and ears. Little Clinic confirmed, tonsillitis and ear infection again - AWESOME! And to top it all off, they couldn't fill my prescription for 4 hours and I was flying out in 2 hours. I loaded up on over the counter drugs and headed to the airport.

Monday was business as usual and I really didn't feel all that bad. Tuesday, that's a different story. Seriously, it was one of those days where I had to keep talking myself out of vomiting in crowded hallways, running out of appointments, etc. So to recap, Monday=okay, Tuesday = not a cool day to be Vegas!

On the bright side, my room at the Bellagio had a great view of the strip. Since it's a work trip this is about as much as I see of Vegas except from taking a cab from the hotel to market each day. Maybe I'll actually get to see the city sometime!
{the water show was really nice to see from my room}

Tuesday night one of our vendors was nice enough to purchase tickets for our team to attend one of the final Cher concerts. Apparently she won't be performing or doing tours anymore. I felt terrible, but I couldn't not go after they spent all that money on a ticket for me. I drugged up, dressed up and headed out for CHER!

It wasn't quite what I expected, but it was still a good show. I think if I had personally paid the $300 for the ticket I would have been a little disappointed. You weren't allowed to take any pictures in the arena, so this is the only gem I have of the evening.
{yes Gals, those are Guys!!}

I'm back home now, but unfortunately still sick. All I know is that no matter how many fancy restaurants or CHER concerts there are, NOTHING is as good as home!!!

{well, unless someone was to give me free money to gamble with. That may keep me away from home for a few extra days!!!!}
