What Day Is This?
I’m having such a good time in Vegas. Plenty of me time, drinking time, pool time, socializing time and oh yeah, conference time.
I actually attended TAM8 most of yesterday. I heard a few speakers (including Adam Savage) and met lots of people. I have jewelry! Great food provided, though the snacks had a very distinct theme. Peanuts, peanut butter cookies, peanut butter cups, peanut brittle, peanut m&ms. I thought for sure there was some secret experiment testing how many actual peanut allergies there were in a crowd of over 1500 people. I haven’t had peanut brittle in so long!
Had my picture taken (and a decent hug) with Mr Deity himself. What a nice man. I’ll post that as soon as Bruce uploads it.
Today has been pretty lazy. I’ve skipped the conference so far in lieu of pool time. Seriously, I don’t know how they do it, but the big pool here is ice cold. So is the cherry vodka frozen lemonade concoction!
I should head out and pay attention to a couple of presentations. It is, after all, what someone paid for me to do. There’s a HUGE party tonight with the Skepchicks.
I forget to tell you about my first exotic danc… well they didn’t really dance… strip, wait they didn’t really strip either. Titty bar? High class, quite expensive and utterly boring titty bar. I was as bored as most of the girls, but they did look better.

Glad you are are having a good time. And I totally understand the strip joint experience. Let me just say i told hubby that next time we could just go to a cheap place as the girls we were seeing weren’t in dancing. We tipped on girl because she had energy and actually was trying to earn a living instead of expecting a handout. Pretty or not everyone has to work for their money in one way or another.
Continue to have a great time and I hope to see you soon.
