All in all it was a success
Vegas was awesome!!!
Day 1- I got my pina colada, and a salad that changed my life for the better. My room got upgraded to a room with a view for free. I think he just told me that to make me feel special, and you know what it worked. Because of that I spent a whole 10 min longer than I normally would have looking at the swimmers. I was wishing I was brave enough to bare my white white skin and winter body.
Day 2- Had rehearsal and was serenaded (does it count as serenading if its rap?) the unknown songs of Sir Mix A lot, by the teleprompter guy. Saw the battle of passed out drunk man vs. door. The final score was Door-1, Man-0. I realized that most men that go to club TAO have forgotten what decade it is, and that in 2010 it is not socially acceptable to wear your shirt 3/4 of the way unbuttoned. Likewise, most girls who attend club TAO got ripped off when buying their dresses. Most of them were in over sized shirts. Finally got some gelato; it was heavenly!
Day 3- Got up at o'dark thirty for a 5K. Who plans a 5K at 6 am? Saw the runners take off and then had security drive me to McDonald's to get a diet coke. It. Was. Awesome! From there we had oh about 10 min to change into our suits and head over to the event. Hung out back stage for many many hours without sufficient food. Luckily, our security guys rock and they kept me entertained and supplied with diet coke. After the sessions ended (2 hours late) we went to some parties. One in the Paris, we tried to go to one in Planet Hollywood, but it was canceled. We then headed to the Palazzo, this party was my fav. The suite there rocked. One day when I am a millionaire (cough don't hold your breathe cough cough) I would like to throw soiree's for my friends there. We ended the night at Bally's.
Day 4- Barely made my flight, sat next to teleprompter guy, who kept me entertained the whole way home. Rushed to church and was there for the remainder of the day.
I am still trying to catch up, but tomorrow I will write a more entertaining post (cough don't count on it cough cough).

Viva Las Vegas
I am getting ready to go sin city for work.
I leave tomorrow morning; return on Sunday. I hope I am able to find some time for a little fun.
My list of goals are:
1. To not get married, but if I do to have an attorney who will be able to pull off a 24 hr annulment. (I kid, I kid)
2. To not get a tattoo-This is not really a temptation, I needed an easy goal.
3. To meet Elvis- Maybe he can officiate at the wedding. (see #1)
4. To drink a virgin pina colada from the Bellagio-They are the best, I am not lying.
5. Maybe find myself a pirate man at the Treasure Island show (See #1).
6. I am sure there are many more, but I don't have time to think of them right now.
Have a great weekend ya'll!

I hate being a girl and other random facts
1. I seriously hate being a girl. I hate PMSing, although I love the chocolate and french fries that come with it. I will be having a chat with Eve about all this.
2. I haven't had to speak in sacrament meeting for 3 almost 4 years. It has been a good run and will be coming to an end on Sunday. I already have sweaty palms and shaky knees.
3. I LOVE Lady Gaga...Well her music. The music videos on the other hand are a bit much. I would really like to know what she said to Beyonce to get her to agree to be in one.
4. I am in a fight with Del Taco because of their cheesecake bites, and french fries (see #1) and diet coke and tacos ok because of everything they have. I may or may not have had lunch there a few times this week. Curse you Del Taco.
5. I really wish the construct would end by my house. I am sick of the workers staring at me and then "whispering" about me in Spanish. Umm hello, that is not a whisper and I speak Spanish so please just tell me I am pretty and we can move on.
6. I can't think of any other random facts, and I have a meeting to go to. Have a lovely day!

I am really not dead
But, I am the worst blogger in the world. I have gone 2 months without a post. There is a reason though (yes, I have to make excuses...justification makes me feel better). Please rest assured I have not, I repeat I have NOT been visited by Cupid.
I moved into my new house the end of January. I went to my new ward for the first time on Feb 7. Two weeks later I went to Mexico City (for work, not fun...although it was fun). The day after I got home I got a call from the executive secretary of my ward, he asked me to come in and meet with the bishop that Wednesday. I went thinking it was going to be another get to know you interview and that I would possibly get a calling, something like ward program maker. I was right I was getting a calling, but it wasn't ward program maker. It was the Relief Society President. Yes, you read that right. I think my exact response was "You're joking, right?" Three weeks after moving into a new ward I was called as the RS Pres. It has been a challenge and a testimony building opportunity. One of the hardest things I had to do was call counselors from a ward where I literally knew no one. I guess RS Pres is a pretty busy calling...yes I am that naive. It is also greatly rewarding, I am surprised at how quickly I have come to love it. I finally feel like I have a handle on things now. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
I love you all, my blogging buddies (are there any of you left?)
