It’s been a while since I’ve written, so here’s some catching up.
As part of his Christmas gift, I took Sam to Las Vegas for 2 1/2 days for vacation, culminating with Bette Midler in concert. Needless to say, we had a great time. We aren’t gamblers, but we do enjoy kitsch, and Vegas certainly has plenty of it. We stayed at the Planet Hollywood Hotel, which we enjoyed a great deal… at it was very cheap, as it was the off season AND had a AAA rate.
We began Sunday night by seeing Jubilee at Bally’s, an old style traditional topless revue. We didn’t know what to expect, but it was fabulous! Very over the top and goofy. Plus, there are some guys who end up wearing codpieces, so there is something for us gay fellas to enjoy as well. The next day had us shopping, seeing the new volcano at the Mirage (it was okay), and eating at the Bellagio Buffet. A tip for groups of 1 or 2… you don’t have to wait in line if you don’t mind eating at the bar–just walk right up and have a seat! That tip saved us the 90-120 minute wait.
On the sexy side of things, we brought our new sleepsack with us (Sam got it for me as his Christmas gift). We have each used it twice, and are totally in love with it. More pics to come later, but all I can say is that it has been worth it.
On an amusing note, Sam also got me a more family-friendly gift for me to open in front of my parents–my own Muppet! They are currently doing a promotion where you can create your own Muppet “Whatnot”, which is one of their miscellaneous muppets they put in the background. You can select a body type, eyes, nose, hair, and an outfit, and they they will build and ship it to you! I’m trying to put one together as we speak.
Whew! One of my longer, not too sexy posts. Don’t worry, I have more pic posts later on. I just had a lot to share with you today!
