vegas bound ✈
In just two short weeks, I will be boarding a plane for Las Vegas. I have honestly lost count of how many times I have been there, at least ten, I am sure. I mention in my profile, that I like to play pool, but that may be a bit of an understatement. It is really more like my second job. I play at the highest amateur level and have even played in one pro event, which I won an entry into. I love it and every year there is this huge event in Vegas that draws me and thousands of other pool players.
It all happens at the retro-fabulous Riviera, which has recently been remodeled, I will report on the updates, when I am there. Last trip, I made numerous walking trips up and down the strip, to get my Starbucks fix. I often went just after the sun came up, as I was not able to get my body clock to understand it should reset for -3 hours. I took a Sony Cybershot with me, to document my trip.

The Trump building at different times of day, seemed to turn & change size.

Hey! My sister (melissa aka borsabella) has been raving about you and finally gave me a link to your blog(:
We apparently have a TON in common....well...except the pool thing. I'm more of a poker gal.
You are AWESOME!
So excited to read your archives(:
Cheers!
Oh, I forgot to mention....I can't believe anyone else has seen Bell Book and Candle!
I LOVE that movie(:
I just wanted to tell you how much I love your blog (so much so that I've included it in my blogroll). You are really, truly talented, and your pictures tell a new story every day. And on top of that, you play pool to boot!
I found your blog via your recent profile on SFgirlbybay's profile. Your house, your photos, your talent -- and your blog name-- already make you too cool. But the amateur pool playing?! That knocks me out!
Good luck! Can't wait to see the post-Vegas posts & pics.
Thanks!
