I'm home, for now

Well, I got home.  I arrived in my much-missed home at 1:30 on Thursday morning.  I got to bed a bit before 2:30, and still made it to work on Thursday...but I was almost 2 hours late...with approval.  Vegas was fun, but so damn tiring.  I walked and stood more than I've ever done in my life.  My legs hurt, my feet hurt (I don't usually wear "girl" shoes") and my back hurt.  I'm better now, thankyouverymuch.

Thursday night, I went to bed fairly early, and felt much better today.  My legs and feet are almost back to normal.  No, I didn't win.  Yes, I lost money.  Thank God it wasn't much, since I only play penny slots.  I saw some of the most awesome customers that I have.  It was great.  I ate expensive food that was only slightly better than the cheap stuff I usually eat, drank a beer or two on their dime, and saw some neat stuff.  I got home on time, and my kids were well cared for.  I call that a successful trip.

A week from next Wednesday, I have a two-day trip to Illinois, and the following weekend I will be in Detroit.  Kevin will be with me for that one, so it's gonna be a lot of fun, aside from the work part.  LOL

Tomorrow is Birthday Bash, and I'm so excited I could pee on myself.  Kevin and I will leave in plenty of time to be there when the doors open.  I had tickets to both nights, but gave away my tickets for tonight, since I haven't seen much of my family this week.  I won the tickets, so I'm not out anything, and the girl I gave them to at work is SO excited.  I hope she has a good time.

I've gotten through all the email that had accumulated while I was gone, and now it's time to check in on journals.  See ya!

Huh?  Last I heard (from Cliff, VIA Linda) was that Kevin couldn't get off work.
