Yeah, yeah, I know. And I do have a good time if I'm there with friends. I just really don't like the city itself. Feh.
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Fremont Street is really the place to be for me, I found (though I would not turn down the penthouse suite in THEHotel Mandalay Bay. Holy shit that was nice). But Fremont is awesome, if way too far away from the Double Down. You can actually maneuver around the crowds! There's motorcycles being ridden in cages! There's cheesy music videos projected on the canopy!

Our wings are not tired
Something about how absurdly over the top every single thing in Vegas is appeals to me. It's like American Pop Culture barfed in the Nevada desert.

I should try Vegas some day. After all, I really LIKED Disneyworld, which I wasn't expecting, so maybe the soul-deadening dread I feel each time I contemplate going to Vegas is misplaced.
PS Tucson is everything Vegas is not.

I haven't been to Vegas to visit Vegas since the mid-80s. Since then, I've transferred planes at that airport and that's about it. I really need to go to Vegas.

As someone who is really hoping for Seattle or Portland, I feel obliged to point out that in the upper left coast, hot humid July weather is not unknown - especially with climate chaos. Mind you, there are coasts and lakes and so forth to escape to.

When it comes down to it, for me, it's really not the location that matters, it's the people. If I have the money, I will be there.

I'll be with y'all wherever we go... but I'd rather not be roasting.
