VEGAS OR BUST!!!




Yes,the rumor is true!
I just got back from Vegas Monday afternoon,and back to work Monday night!Holy Cow! I've been to Las Vegas a few times and never came back a "weiner"...lol..but yipppeee! I came home w/ $800 more than I left w/.Sure that doesn't sound like a fortune....but ohhh my gosh did I have a blast!!Oh,and btw,the pic w/ me in the bikini?That IS my face,but NOT my bod.lol...Hell,I wish.But me and the 4 dudes looking in the books beside me chose that body for me.I have lost more weight,but if I keep eating these chocolate covered peanuts(making the keys on my keyboard sticky)then I'll never reach my desired weight.LOL(oink-oink)

When I first got back,I felt like I had a case of jet-lag or something...but then my eyes started burning,runny nose...head achey...really tho it has been just a case of horrible sinus probs...maybe rag weed or pollen in the air....but the sheer excitement I had has kept my mind off the nose blowing 100 plus times a day.HA HA
Ohh yea baaabby! Do I got pix? You bet-cha!!(grin).
I went w/ family(cousins from Ca.) and a friend,and we all had such a great time.Eating,gambling,swimming,and tanning at the pool,shopping till my feet were give out.I honestly didn't think I would be able to get the time off to go until the last minute...but I HAVE to say...I have the coolest boss I've ever had.She had ALREADY given me Thurs.,FRi.,and Sat. off because I have been working so many days straight.But I VERY humbly asked her if it would be possible to have Sun. off too...but if not...then,that's OK,I would stay,cuz my airline tickets were pre-paid for coming back on Monday anyways....I asked her and she said "SURE GIRL,GO TO VEGAS,I'LL GET SUNDAY COVERED"! Talk about a sigh of releief!She's sooooo cool,huh?
We all stayed at the Fremont Hotel...right in the heart of all the action.Across from Binion's Horshoe,and the Four Queens...right on the strip! The last time I stayed at Lady Luck...but this place made a huge difference,cuz you could just walk right out of our motel/casino and into dozens of others side-by-side.Plus all the other attractions....OK,I did get bummed out cuz we didn't get to go see Elton John live....something called the "Red Piano"....OOowwwee! I SOOO wanted to go see him in concert,but it just didn't fit in the plans...but all in all.I'm back now,and feel so eager to keep smileingmy way though this whole single era I am going through.Tammi doesn't stay single long...I always find another co-dependent person to lean on...but LOOK OUT!! HERE I AM! Actually standing on MY OWN 2 feet and not feeling nailed to the floor.What a good feeling.
I have tons of pix of all of us,but even tho one of my cousins work for Microsoft,he tells me no no and hell no,don't put my face online.None of the others want me to either.Matter-of-fact,we had the hugest debate on WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD SOMEONE WANT TO PUT THEIR BUSINESS ONLINE.I was out numbered on that,but I DID get my point across...I just couldn't get the LAST word in,ya know? ha ha ...so I gave up.Like I said...I was out numbered,so I threw the towel in.
So your stuck looking at JUST me and the background of Vegas.LOL (sorry).

Oh snap!If you think THAT fake pic of my body is funny! Wait till u see the video I had made w/ only my head,and my body had a cape on,and my hands under it,while a dancer danced to "Sweat"(C&C Music Factory) and R-E-S-P-E-C-T...(by I believe Aretha Franklin).I thought my kids would get a kick out of that,and they did!! All I did was kinda move my head and sing the words while I am doing different things in different dresses and shorty-shorts...even a towel.ha ha I had like 50 people watching me move my head,and everyone was hooping it up,telling me to stick my tongue out,bob my head etc....so I did,and it is so so so funny!Can you believe I actually FORGOT some of the words to R-E-S-P-E-C-T....I mean driving down the road,I can nail that song...but for some strange reason my freakin' memory suddenly took a vacation! hee hee
But it was fun.Even on the plane back when I fell asleep and spilled my drink all over the nice guy sitting beside me,and then watching me trying to use those tiny cocktail napkins wiping his wet shorts in the WRONG place.He was a good sport and dies laughing...that's when I realizec I was invading his wife's territory w/ a cocktail napkin.(oops).Leave it to me.

Sounds like you had a great time and you came back a winner too, well you were a winner before you left but you can't knock 800 bucks.

Now comparing the picture where you are sitting playing a slot machine and the one you say is fake, I couldn't tell the difference or is just the water fake?

Have a great weekend

I have to agree with Walker on this one, I mean you really don't come home from many vacations $800 richer than what you were before.

Lord Genocyde said...

Honestly, though...I didn't know anyone still PLAYED C+C Music Factory. Damn and I used to listen to that back in the day

Oh you silly guy! I just "wish" I had that bod!lol Thanks for the compliment tho.Hell...I love em',so I'll take a compliment ANY way I can get it.

I was so agg when I was given 3 huge books to pick the picture out of....but one sheet of paper w/ only about 18 songs to pick from.The others were like olies...remember that song "working at the car wash"....like a 70's song.Or the Beach Boys most famous song...just stuff like that....so I din't have much to pick from.I wanted that sond "Super Freak" by Rick James,but that was only for couples to use...so I wasn't impressed w/ my slim selection of tunes.But just watching the body switching clothes and limo's driving by in the back ground,dollar bils flying...so many scenario's...it just wound up just being so dang funny.My nieces,nephews,Mom,and Rayven were in stitches watching this DVD.It really is hiarious.Wish I knew how to get it on my blog...maybe if I ....? um...um....ummmm....used"You Tube"? Is that the thingy I'm thinking about?LOL

Lord Genocyde said...

Yep, it's YouTube but you'll have to rip the DVD into a file, upload it to YouTube and then get the code from that once it's uploaded. Basically, you could do it but it would be a huge pain in the bohonkas.

Glad you had such a great time---and won too---that is just so cool.

Now about your picture---you look great---and never doubt that.

Pasted onto that WWE model, I have to say, that's pretty damn close.

Ok, Tammi, check it out...got a plan (Note From The Department of Internal Affairs: We did not help him with this. We, the voices of aforementioned head, are responsible for our own actions and though they are inclusive of but not limited to thoughts of murder on people we feel desperately deserve it, total global domination and deviant sexual acts...we do not claim responsibility for this idea...ever.) What we do is this. I become one of those irritating, obnoxious, bad guy wrestlers and pick on all the dudes that are far bigger than me and you can be my manager. You'll get ringside...best seat in the house and you get to "low-blow" a couple really big dudes who are probably brain-dead. Sound cool? Become the next WWE Diva, get on their calendar, get your own DVD...the works? Yeah?
