I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

Home from Vegas! So tired and stiff from all the walking. Elena was wonderful! Sitting in a pool on a summer morning until the sun clears the surrounding buildings is a lovely way to spend time.

Most amazing, the penny slots were mind-boggingly generous to me. I came back with three-quarters of the money I was going to spend, and I paid for nearly everything with the cash that was being generated. Unless Elena was in eye-shot of me, then I didn't win anything. She never won anything either.

Basic cable television continues to be boring, so I'm still happy I only have antenna, and there's still enough smoking in the casinos that I have to wash all my clothes tomorrow.

Yay, Connie! You went on a trip and nothing terrible happened except some boring TV and stink in your clothes!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Plus all the winning and the swimming pool and sunshine and good company!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That sounds perfect, Connie.

I had a bad bit of missing Hubby the other night and thinking I could never go back to Vegas, but the Paris is just so charming to me and sitting by the pool in the open air is so relaxing that I will probably change my mind.

4 hrs in the local waterpark. Which is an amazingly relaxed and full of friendly people. You leave your shit lying out no one touches it! People offer you food from their grill & beer (it is byob...and grill if you want to) and it's like a freaky family reunion where you don't know anyone. But it was nice and actually relaxing. And safety of the climbs to the slides is very Eastern European, in a humorous sense. The park is about my age.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm so glad you had a good time, Connie. Sounds like a great way to spend your vacation.

Our present plan for the night is to watch an episode of Star Trek TOS that neither of us remember, and let the kids stay up and watch it too.
