Pretty Vegas

You know you're from Vegas when:
  • You get excited when it's 95 degrees outside because it's finally starting to cool off.
  • You think nothing of walking through a smoke filled casino on your way to watch a movie.
  • You think it's normal to walk into a gas station and see a row of slot machines, complete with people playing them, even when it's 7 a.m.
  • You find it strange when a business is closed at 10 p.m.
  • You don't know how to drive when it rains, let alone the one time a year it snows.
  • You ask someone politely to stop flicking their cigarette ashes on your leg, and they look at you like you're the one who is being rude.
  • You see so many advertisements with scantily clad women on them that when you see one with a fully clothed woman it seems out of place (and it kind of pisses you off).
  • The ice cream truck each night plays don't believe the hype.
  • You can look out your office window and see 12 cops chasing someone with guns drawn (the guy is lucky he didn't get shot in the back).

I need to come down there...even though I stopped smoking, it would be fun to flick ashes on someone's leg and act pissed off if they politely asked you to stop.

I'd just look them up and down and say, "Whatever. I do what I want."

By the way, the ice cream trucks down here don't really play Don't Believe the Hype. It's from a Grandaddy song and I just thought it was funny.

And here I was believing... Do I have "Schmuck" written on my forehead?

Amen. I was happy yesterday, when it was somewhat nice. Nice, as in below triple digits.

And you didn't come to the game tonight. Looks like someone didn't use the "I know you haven't done this shit, but here's what you're supposed to know..." trick to get out early. :P
