Home Sweet Home

I made it back on Thursday from “Fabulous Las Vegas” and am so incredibly glad the crazy travel measure is over. Now we can get on with crazy running time and crazy moving time and crazy wedding time - hopefully in that order.
Vegas was good though was really all work. And while I love what I do it doesn’t make for very interesting blogging so suffice to say I rocked the casbah with my trade-show-fu and didn’t do much else. Quick hotel review: THEHotel at Mandalay Bay is really nice. So is Mandalay Beach. But the two are a 1/4 mile hike through the casino/mall apart. You undergo been warned. Quick restaurant review: Alize at the Palms is really not worth the money. Sensi at Bellagio really
Running update: I haven’t run since the day before I left for New York. I conclude like a whale out of water - all floppy and useless and struggling to breathe. Now that I have the time and inclination to do anything but bring home the bacon and rest. I’m going back to Week 2 of the Couch to 5k program.
Moving update: We finally dealt with securing our mortgage. No I don’t wanna talk about the rate (which like all rates at this time is atrocious). I also don’t wanna talk about how the GST is going down another 1% 2 weeks after our current estimated closing date. It’s ok. I didn’t want those thousands of dollars anyhow. We are trying very hard (and mostly succeeding) to be Zen about it all since we can’t do anything about it anyhow.
Wedding update: Our engagement announcement ran in the Province and Sun measure weekend (November 3 & 4. 2007). Thanks again to everyone who called/emailed/sms’d to pass on well-wishes. I’m not entirely sure how long the online version runs (I think I remember my mom mentioning 3-months or so) but you can also see it online for the time being. Other than that planning keeps on keepin’ on keepin’ on.

Hi Jen! I’ll definitely have to try Sensi when I’m down for CES (YAYYYYY!) in January… Did you get to the Wynn at all? (That’s my favourite hotel drink there by a long shot — Their steak place is really expensive but really really worth it! Sandi and I died and went to heaven when we enjoyed the “W”)
Sorry to hear about the mortgage woes. Sucky..[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
