Vegas Vacation

Instead of traveling across the border to Canada this year, we decided it would be easier if we just headed to the middle of the desert to celebrate my 20 years of life. So, we did that, in Las Vegas.
Since it was only my 20th birthday, not to be confused with my 21th birthday which will happen next year, i was limited to hanging out at the pool, and..well, hanging out at the pool. But, during those long adult swim sessions i kept busy supervising Pat's gambling and making sure Jingle's was misbehaving (thats tough to do). So, other than the fact that i was too young to do anything, it was a good time in Vegas. And after spending the 8th of July all day at the Hard Rock pool, which is ridiculous by the way, watching Brian shame every woman at the pool with his Stifler dance-off moves, Nate arrive for his one day of glory per week. And once freak thrity arrive, i was surprised he would every make it to his bed. I love Nate. Especially after i realized he was too tired to drive home on Sunday so he took a nap in his car with the air conditioner on. I'm glad he woke up.
So, i spent most of my nights with Jingle's. Or, some of you may know him as Jingle-Berry, SnowFlake, or any rendition of the above. But, i met his dog Lola and experience my first episode of Law & Order with him. And also got to spend my birthday night with Jingle's and his friends trying to travel the strip to The Wynn. Didnt happen. After celebrating in our rooms, and many amazing/surprising performances, the new challenge was just keeping them awake past midnight. Didnt happen.
And so, we made it back safely (im not positive as to whether or not Nate ever made it home) and realized we actually had to work this week, bummer. Anyway, im staying at Uncle Kelly's place this week making sure Lucky gets plenty of exercise and I get plenty of practice doing old man chores around the yard. So, when i was sitting in the kitchen one night, i realize something is burning in the toaster. But no, there is nothing in the toaster and notice Lucky scraping his head back and forth on the carpet going nuts. So, after a minute or two Merlin and I realize that Lucky had been sprayed by a skunk. It was actually a baby skunk. So, to help Lucky out, I gladly threw ketchup on her and saved her life. True story. The End.
