Happy Hump Day...Randomness

So, my mind is in a lot of different places today... Here's a brief summary as of this moment...

-Vegas obviously needs me. I get mailers for free hotel nights all the time. Given my current financial situation, as much as I'd like to go out, I just can't justify it right now. Yesterday I got one that I'm going to seriously consider. Three nights at NYNY free over New Years weekend. New Years weekend people! That's huge. Plus free food at participating retailers in NYNY and $200 in free play. Bring a friend for only $59 a night........ OMG, mecca is calling..... I need a vacation from real life and if I can get everything back on track here real soon, I'm gonna book it. Nevermind the fact I probably don't have anyone to go with, it doesn't even really matter to me right now. Vegas needs me and I need Vegas.....

-I'm seriously considering becoming a nonsmoker. The problem is, I like to smoke. Really, I do. I realize it's a nasty habit and blah, blah, blah, but I truely enjoy it. I've been sick for like a week now and I know that smoking is making it worse. Hell, I'm a pack a day kind of girl and have been smoking only 5 or 6 a day over the last week or so, just because I think I re-fractured my ribs in a coughing fit this weekend. I don't know. G keeps nagging on me to quit. He and I have a deal that by my 33rd birthday I have to quit anyway. I promised him that. So why not just do it now? I mean, it makes sense. I'm sick and don't wanna do it right now. I really can't afford the habit anymore, and when you have to choose between eating lunch and buying a pack of cigarettes and choose the cigarettes, you really should probably quit. I'm kinda afraid to I guess. It's been something that's been part of me for so long, I guess it kinda feels like I'm losing part of my identity. That sounds totally gay. I don't know, something to consider I guess. If I put that $6 a day into a jar....hello Vegas....

-Speaking of sick, holy crap, is like 1/2 the country sick right now or what? Brandon said that they told them in school out of 620 kids in grades 7 & 8 over 260 were out sick already this week. That shit is crazy. Lucky for me, my kids went to daycare as soon as they were able to when they were babies. We had a couple of years of MAJOR cooties, including Gavin having meningitis, but now, they don't get sick hardly at all. They truly have great immune systems. What this means though, is that even though they don't get sick, their grubby little hands bring home all the cooties to me. Then I've got Ev in daycare, which right now is just a cesspool of snot and drool. Yeah, everything's coming home to me from all fronts. It kinda makes me want to bathe in sanitizer. I've got bronchitis or an upper respiratory infection. Something like that. Whichever one it is, it probably is going to require drugs to cure and I don't get paid for like a week and a half, so I'll just have to suffer, hoping it doesn't turn into like pneumonia or something.

-Talked to Kyle last night. He makes me laugh. Apparently he mailed out the paper to get his tags renewed via mail when he got home last time. On his way back down to Kentucky he remembered that he did that and he didn't get them while he was home, so he's freaking out. His tags will officially expire while he's on the boat. He's asking me if he's gonna go to jail over expired tags. Really? They don't put people in jail for that shit.... Well, maybe they do, I always wait till the end of the month to get mine, just because unless a cop is running your plates, the sticker color is the same all month long. I told him not to do anything stupid on his way home and he'd be fine. He settled down after that.

Umm, I think that's it for now.  I promise that I'll get the pics up from the prank at Tara's house on Monday night, sometime soon!

May your hump day be fantastic!

Sweetie, as your Vegas mom, I beg of you to quit smoking. Let's frame in it Sin City terms: nothing kills your looks more than smoking. I look at women my age, and I can tell in seconds if they're smokers. It shows on their faces.

XOXO
