What Happens in Vegas

No, really?  What actually happens in Las Vegas?




For us lucky Office Ladies, work happens in Vegas.  We here at A Portmanteau have day jobs- you can imagine that blogging sporadically and escaping constantly does not the bills pay.  So off we went for an industry convention.

A Vegas Virgin may be nervous and full of wonder- what will it be like?  Will it be cold in the hotels and casinos?  Will the food be good?  Will I play the tables?  Will I get to see the glitz?  What kinds of people will be there?  The answer to everything is an enthusiastic yes and all kinds.



Dear reader, I will spare you the work dullery.  I will, however, say that business is indeed conducted poolside and one might want to consider a handsome cover-up from the "resort wear" section of the stores for next time. Further consideration should be given to the notion that time shouldn't be wasted on sleeping. 



The trip was book-ended with stops at the In-and-Out Burger (#2 meal animal style, with chocolate shake).  A wonderful jump start to the excitement and bon voyage to the Strip.
For the balance of the trip, we worked hard, danced, dined, gambled, won, and repeated.  It was a brief visit to a parallel reality and we look hugely forward to returning.
