So, I suppose I should start with day one. The girls showed up to pick me up. Before we left town we wanted to stop by the NEX to get booze...Okay, so I had to use my sick leave to get paid for these days I took off, so what did I do...I told my Sgt. that I had to take my grandmother to Reno for that laser eye correction surgery. Officer Turner shows up at the NEX and I think okay, cool...he doesnt care...he is a good guy. Shortly there after, Sgt. Padilla, Sgt. Lukins, officer Hayes...they all show up to get coffee there at the same time. They see us and make jokes about the booze saying we need to put some in their coffee and all....OH MY GOD! Could I have any worse karma. LOL. My Sg. says, hey aren't you supposed to be...I said it was cancelled so we decided to go to Vegas for my Bachelorette party since I had the days off anyway. I hate lying and I especially felt awful for lying to my favorite Sgt. So that was kinda funny...and sad. Lol. What can I say, that's why I don't lye...I would never get away with it.So, we leave the NEX and get on the road and we rocked out all the way there. We couldn't check into our room until 4pm, so we decided to get party favors at the mall....yeah....where is the mall now??? Lol, we call everyone and ask if they know where a mall is, my mom was at work at the time and go figure the day I need her computer to work most, its running ridiculously slow so couldn't get directions. We stopped at a gas station and asked and the guy gave us the wrong directions. Right area, but told us to make all Left turns when we needed to make a right turn somewhere along the line. Lol, so then we get to the Mall, NO SPENCER'S! Are you kidding me right now. Lol, so we got new directions to get to a different mall...THE BIG MALL...the only place in entire VEGAS with a Spencer's. We became very well acquainted with Vegas at this point. Then we checked into our room...yeah, okay, this is a timeshare my maid of honors dad let us use...its not a room its a damn apartment. It was awesome. 2 bedroom 2 bath fully equip kitchen, washer and dryer...need I say more. We went out that night to the Fremont street experience...Nope...didnt actually see the lights because we were in the Mermaid Casino at the top of the hour...getting way too drunk. I didn't intend on drinking that much, but Jen wasn't drinking and because it was a bachelorette party the lady's were giving us drinks left and right...and for all four of us. They were disgusting drinks, but...I got really drunk. It was weird...my mind wasn't drunk, but my body was wasted. We decided to go to our room after that because we were all so tired and didn't want to do anything more that night. I had been up since 5 because I took Matthew to work that morning, Christy worked that night but was able to get off at 2am, the other girls have kids so they didn't get to sleep in either...we were sleepy. lol. I laid in bed and talked to Matthew for about an hour before passing out. We are so pitifully, cant even go one night much less two with out each other. We missed each other incredibly too much. The last time we were apart was when he was in Alaska for a month and that was over a year ago. So, it was hard.Day two...Jen, my maid of honor, was up all night talking to her family...she had a lot going on, so she didn't get much sleep, so she stayed at the hotel while us three got ready and went to the strip to walk around and site see. We went to quite a few places. The M&M Factory (cant believe how huge it was...its 4 floors high), the Miracle Mile Mall, that was amazing...the other girls didn't appreciate it the way I did because they aren't as into pictures and stuff and Matt and I are, but we still had fun browsing. Then we went back to the room to get Jen up even though she didn't really sleep at all (poor thing). She got ready and then we went to Hooter's to eat. WORST EXPERIENCE! I really don't recommend the Hooter's there. The girls were so rude and I think it was because we were all girls and it was a bachelorette party because the lady that seated us said with a dirty look and attitude "Well hello bachelorette" So, whatever. They took out order and then when it was ready it sat there and got cold before this guy brought it to us. Wasn't that great anyway even if it was hot. Then we went to the store to get alcohol and to kill a few hours before our limo showed up at the room. I told Christy just drop us off at the front of the store and that way she could park the car and we can start getting the alcohol so we made it back to the room in time for the limo. I get out of the car and there was a speed bump right where I got out at....I want to emphasise that I am SOBER, lol, I slipped over the speed bump and fell on the ground...this was so funny, the battery cover on my phone popped off and I was laughing so hard I couldn't put it back on, I was sitting on the curb laughing at myself and looking pitiful. LOL. When we were back at the room waiting for the limo and getting all dolled up the limo driver called Christy to say that she was running a little behind...then she called back and said that she had a tire blow out, so there was another limo driver on their way. The guy was an ass but anyway, he showed up about a half hour late, so we took pictures in the hotel while we were waiting...it was way funny. The limo driver took us to the volcano (AWESOME! totally recommend seeing it) on our way there the girls were so drunk, Christy took my camera and took a picture of the cop car next to us because we kept talking about how the side of their cars say do not dial 9-11 it says to call 3-11, the cop spotlighted her...Oh my...these are my friends. Lol, then we went to this church on a hill to see all of Vegas city lights, then to the Fremont Street....We actually got to see the light show this time. Lol. It was cool. Then we were on our way back to the limo when we decided to do this dancing heads video. It was so funny, and people were watching us, we were famous for all but about 20 mins. lol. Then our Limo left us. What the fuck. Lol, so we had to pay him to take us back to the room. I was sober by then so I said I would be the driver because I didn't want to drink anymore so we went back to the room and got the car to go back to the strip. Went to New York New York, Paris, Miracle Mile Mall again...I really wanted to see the rain storm in there, but they ended it a half hour before we got there. Anyway, it mostly a lot of walking after that. It was a fun night.Day three, we left the room at about 9:45am and went to Panda Express for lunch at 10am, then we got on I-15...they are blowing up the roads on Wednesdays to widen the roads, so yeah, super, we were stuck at state line for 3 hours. Didn't get to leave until 2pm (which is when we would have been home) so...we made the best out of it...we went to Buffalo Bill's Casino and rode the rides for free. SWEET. We rode the Flume Logs twice and Jen and Lois rode the dropper twice, we all rode the roller coaster, the Desperado, 1 time and I cried and turned white. I don't like roller coasters and that was the scariest one I think I have ever been on. Lol, Christy and Jen rode it 2 more times after that. Lol, (I have whiplash from it, we are all so sore now). Finally about 1:30 we get to the car and try to get back on the 15, yeah right, traffic was so congested I thought there was going to be a brawl in the middle of the road between these people. Everyone was so frustrated and irritated with each other. It was a mess. Needless to say we made it home at about 7pm...would have been about 1/2 hour earlier but we decided to go through Victorville. LOL. Jen told Christy to stay on the 15 instead of getting off at the 58 toward Bakersfield. No big deal though, we made it home safely and had a good time. That was my trip guys.
