so, currently in las vegas . . . . zach, tracy, sadie (aka cwazy), woogie (aka boogie butt), and stinker (aka stinker) have all arrived safely at their new home in the west. and what a home it is. lovely view of the red rock canyon from the balcony, cute little fountain in the backyard, etc.
Saw a fantastic band on Wednesday. At a Casino. Of course. They called themselves the Spasmatics. Dressed as total nerds they covered every beloved 80's song you can think of. They were great. The dance floor filled up immediately. The mystery of who will play our wedding is now solved. Just kidding. Well . . . hmmm.
Thanksgiving was unusual, although not as unusual as the one spent with Katey Segal (Peg Bundy from Married With Children.) This Thanksgiving was spent with Zach's new work friends playing a fascinating game called Flip Cup. Its a challenging game - a race between 2 teams where cups are flipped after chugging beer in the cup. The next team member cannot begin chugging until you have successfully flipped the cup on the table. Sounds pretty boring but you would be surprised how the adrenalin can start pumping. I still don't know whose team won. So, missing out on the traditional Thanksgiving dinner made Zach and I crave it even more. Which is why the day after thanksgiving we made thanksgiving dinner of our own. Bought a fire pit for our little desert backyard, roasted marshmallows, looked at the stars, occasionally blinded by the moving spotlights over the vegas strip and then ate some turkey.
Monday we call Pest Control to spray the house. We just are not big fans of scorpions. Desert life is scary.
