No one ever says what they really mean to say.
To use the phrase Becca and I coined on one fateful May evening/morning,
"I'M TWELVE!"

Please, do not let me get ahead of myself for once.

In other news, Barack Obama is going to be my president in like eight hours.
Not gonna lie, I am pretty stoked about it.
Bex, Lauren, and I are having a party which will include pompoms and pigs in blankets.
And cupcakes, obviously. What's a party without cupcakes?

I had an amazing time in Vegas, which included:
- being perpetually and disgustingly full for four days.
- finally experiencing the Wynn buffet and Paris again.
- staying in the unbelievably beautiful Venetian.
- getting my first massage (and, since, constantly craving another).
- seeing Penn and Teller.
- seeing The Price Is Right!
- the host of The Price Is Right being David Ruprecht, the host of SUPERMARKET SWEEP!
- having the most fun ever at The Price Is Right and meeting him!
- a remarkable dining experience at Craftsteak.
- winning $600 from slot machines (which I never play)!
- leaving too soon.
- having an overall awesome time with some great friends.

This weekend was great, too. On Saturday, I went to a show in Bellmawr with Lauren, Bex, and Mike. We went to see Lauren's dudes in Your Sweet Uncertainty. I had a great time and the band was great. The dudes I met were extremely sweet. Wouldn't mind seeing them again. And Lauren, we need to set our bowling date soon!

On Sunday, my family (+ Lauren) went down to Atlantic City to go to the Harrah's buffet for my aunt's birthday. I had a pleasant (and sometimes insulting) dinner. After, Lauren and I split from everyone else and gambled. I don't know what this string of good luck is, but I won $1,000 by hitting a royal flush in video poker. It was pretty awesome, I must say. I'm still a bit shocked, really.

I did absolutely nothing today and it was everything I imagined it to be. I still have things to do, books to finish, rooms to clean. Things are well, though.

Upcoming:
- Restaurant Week lunch at Mesa Grill with Lauren!
- Fridayyyyyyy! <3333
- Chris Conley solo shows!
- Chicago!

Wow, I am pretty much living it up right now.

I quite like your idea of a party.

Does Friday mean what I think it means? Wow, this is vague, isn't it?

Also: congrats on the win!! Your life reads as so incredibly awesome right now.

Friday means exactly what you think it means (I assume). Will you be there?!

And thank you very much! I hope the awesome streak continues so I can continue to put off finding a job for as long as possible.

I think it does mean what I think, based on what I know of you! And yes! I will be there--hopefully. Meaning I am hoping my friend is not joking about me being her "guest." I love not knowing if people will come through or not.. eek.

Also, concerning it (assuming that we really do mean the same thing, but it's more fun to avoid naming it, right?), are you getting there early? I don't know your standard with lines or whatever but the whole tickets-at-doors and assigned seats thing makes me nervous haha :(

Hey, maybe you can just pick up real poker--those professional poker players make mad money, don't they? It could work!

Hahahaha I love being vague.

I hope to get there early, but I haven't decided how early yet. The tickets-at-doors thing makes me super nervous and I will probably end up having a panic attack, haha. But yeah, I will be there early.

I hope your ticket follows through! I hope my ticket follows through...haha.

They do make mad money, but they also have like...skills and stuff. Video poker doesn't involve sitting at tables with scary people, haha. But I am gonna ride this as long as I can! :)

btw I think you might know this already, but I e-mailed CUB and each school ID is only for THAT student and one guest. Initially I was going to go with a friend, thinking one ID could get tickets for two guests, but it seems it doesn't work that way due to the tickets being imaginary. Why can't they just do the normal thing and use paper tickets? anyway--I hope your ticket follows through too. This is so unnecessarily stressful.

and I'm just glad to know I won't be the only psycho there mad early. I plan to bring some homework and sit around. wow, it'll be awesome.

shh, skills can be acquired! (I actually know nothing about poker, so don't take my advice.)

Lol. I just want to point out, that your mom said "Well at least it'll last you through Spring." And when she did, I kind of LOLed a bit, knowing full well that your winnings would last about 3 weeks. Lol.

But I am honored to have been with you, and glad to know that you enjoyed YSU!
