Allyson, I spent three years in braces and still have crooked teeth thanks to my fuckup orthodontist. Your dentist just wants your money. Don't let him prey on your insecurity.

ita, ugh. I hope you get some relief.

School~ma for Frances.

Perkins, The Venetian's really nice. TI (formerly Treasure Island is affordable, too, I think, and is fairly nice). DH has stayed at the Paris and declares it fancy.

Owen walked into the room yesterday and said, "JESUS CHRISTES! What's going on here?"

Perkins, The Palms is amazing. Pricey and not on the strip but good. I've also seen good deals at Bellagio. If you can swing it, though, stay at Wynn.

Meant to say, meara, we should be back from Vegas and dinner might work. or it might be an impossibility.

Huh. Is this true? Could the greenback be doomed? [link]

Next time we go to Vegas, I want to try the Wynn.

billytea, we can only hope! I want pretty money.

Sounds like we're all on the "plan at the last minute" bandwagon, Kat. Works for me. :)

It's sad that my thought was, "There's an API for schools? You can program them??? DAMN! Wish I'd known that!"

BWAH. (yes. late. We were at dinner with my past: my first boyfriend ever, his wife, and their three kids.)

If you can swing it, though, stay at Wynn.

The Wynn is very posh and gorgeous.

God damn it, the Mets suck. But they don't suck as bad as the Yankees, so at least that's something.

My mother was told by our family dentist that I needed braces (long about when I was 9 or 10.) She scoffed at that. I've never had braces and every dentist I've seen since is surprised to learn that. Now the condition of those nicely straight teeth is another story entirely...

Which is to say, yep, wrong day for it (and one of the many reasons I hate going to the dentists and drs. They have an uncanny knack of picking the one thing to discuss that I don't need to discuss at the moment,) and you know what? You've got a great smile.
