Who's ready for the wammer takover of Vegas!? We're less than 2 months away and 120 people have RSVP'ed so far. Even if only half show up, that's still a lot of wammers in one place!
Like before, this is really just our personal vacation where we're hoping to share a little bit of time with our UMD friends. I have set up a few meet-n-greets so we all get to see each other, but other than that everybody is basically just doing their own vacations or using the opportunity to set up all sorts of crazy fun times. So on Wednesday the 3rd, plus that Thursday and Saturday, Messmistress and I will be starting our night in old Vegas outside the Whiskey Licker bar on Fremont St. On Friday the 5th (Cinco de Mayo!) we'll be chillin on the main strip at Beer Park which is also outside, underneath Paris... and then tearing up the strip later. We hope everybody comes and hangs with us, at least for a little while. Our little daytime pool party is Saturday at the Golden Nugget's Shark Tank. Messygirl is also putting on a live show Saturday after the pool party, so check out their event page for that.
I know there are other things being planned, so if you want everybody to know, you should post about it or maybe add a calendar event. I'll also update this post and the event page itself with any other [public] happenings.
If you're coming to any of the meet-n-greets, please be sure to RSVP. Also, please RSVP if you're coming to the pool party, or to The Strip.
Can't wait to vibe with my UMD people in real life again!
Golden Nugget and flights are booked. The idea of Triple D eateries seems to have fallen a little flat - one positive response and two 'likes' for the post, but I'm still game. I'll get the groupme app sorted, and have a suitable cellphone by the time I arrive. I'm so looking forward to this and meeting new folks and re-meeting some folks.
I've been putting this off for literally a month, because it's so hard to make this call officially, but me and Misses won't be able to attend this year. Way too many destabilizing things have come up since I got the plane tickets. Sorry for anybody who may be disappointed. I feel REALLY guilty, to the point where I don't know if my guilt is warranted or not. I just don't want to let people down, because I know that some of our followers are extremely dedicated. Misses and I are fine FYI. Hopefully life will be more normal for the 30th anniversary. But it's not in the cards this year.
