Las Vegas

So here's the recap since the S.F. trip.....Went up to LA to see Chris on Tuesday, that was goodness. Wednesday night Ross flew down, Charles and I went and picked him up. Though Ross was supposed to be staying at my house, what really ended up happening was that we would get drunk at Charles' house, pass out, drive back to my house in the morning and take naps all day. Friday afternoon Charles left work early and we headed out to Vegas. We got stuck in so much traffic that we didn't make it there until about 10.

Once there we started drinking (we brought a cooler full of liquor and beer) and called a bunch of our friends who were in town for Defcon. Walked around casinos in a giant group until someone got the bright idea that we should walk to the MGM. Ross decided that giving me piggy back rides was the way to go so we ran around doing that. Apparently my asscrack was hanging out cause none of my pants fit me so McGettigan put change in my asscrack. I totally made 26 cents on the piggy back ride.

Ross and I got to the escalator up to the MGM way before everyone else so he tried to run up it with me on his back. Bad idea. We fell, ate shit, and got all scratched up. He broke my fall pretty well though. I'm still all fucked up from it. Shit-tons of bruises, scratches, cuts, and soreness.

That night we called Fran when we got back to the hotel and he drove his ass out there. Ross got belligerent and half-naked and bought us roomservice. Fran got in at 5 am, by which time most of us were passed out but we soon woke up to start it all over again.

My pictures are here and here and the captions do tell most of the story. I'm sure there will be more pictures coming, since other people had cameras as well. Highlights of the weekend included getting to eat dinner at Nobu and not having to pay for it and getting a playbill that Eric Idle signed from McGettigan.

In other news I finally saw the Suddenly Millennium skit from MadTV this morning. It was everything I hoped it would be.
