The Omelet House / 50's Diner


Went to the 50's Diner after church this morning with Steve, Brett and Kelly. This is actually what I had...the healthy choice breakfast! 8-) Always nice to go to a restaurant where everyone knows your name. There is a song there somewhere. Plus they are close to Desert Springs Hospital.....just saying!

Rain, rain go away!




OK, we have had enough rain in Vegas for one week. Some neighborhoods got over 2 inches, which is about half of our yearly rainfall amount. Not a lot of damage though. We have a leak at Lamping in the multi-purpose room, but no big deal. Looking forward to a good weekend. Dinner and a movie with Danna and Denis. That should be fun. I finished all of my Tech plan evals for CCSD today. Hopefully Steve has finished all of his employee evaluations too. They were due today. Brett is getting KFC for dinner so life is pretty good.

Shirley Temple - I Love To Walk In The Rain

Everytime it rains in Vegas, I think of this song. Thank goodness it doesn't rain very much here!

Larry's Happy Dance

This was the video response to last Thursday's bowling upset. Did I say upset? The only one who was upset was Jim. (Is that mean?)

Tales of Glory at the Gold Coast!


Wow, what a night at bowling! Last night was the half-way point for the season. The first and second place teams have a bowl-off to see who will be crowned first place for the first half. We were in first place and TLC was is second place. We had to win one game in order to keep our first-place status. Game one - We lost by 9 pins. Game 2- We lost by 70 pins, one of the bowlers on the other team missed a perfect game by 1 pin, got a 289. Game 3 - Neck and neck all the way to the end. Last frame - I got a split. Jim on the other team, didn't get a mark either. Ingrid on my team, who has a 90 average, got 3 strikes and we won by 7 pins. I did a big old happy dance that Danna caught on video. I will try to post it later. I have never been on a first-place team, so I am VERY excited.

CES

Went to CES today in Las Vegas for a few hours today. Lots of stuff to see. Most impressed with the 3D TV's and Samsung's booth. Both very dramatic! Not sure if I can get into wearing 3D glasses over my own. Steve thought it would be a good idea for someone to invent 3D perscrition glasses. Could be the coming thing!

The Pez Song

I am in a PEZ mood. Found this video. Way cool.

Went to the dentist today.....painful tooth. It was one that had a crown, so he just ground down the crown to fix my bite. So far so good. I hope this eliminates the pain!

Got 4 more tickets for Bette Midler. We are taking Danna and Denis. Tuesday night. Should be fun. This is her last month in Vegas. We had seen the show before, but thought we would see it again.

Life is Good

Since Brett and Kelly have moved in, life has been pretty good. Brett has been doing a lot of the cooking and a lot of the cleaning. I am a happy pappy!

Maggiano's Manga!


Had a nice topper to the holidays last night. Had dinner at Maggiano's Italian Restraunt on the strip with Tim, Rachel and their two kids. Food was really good but service was poor. It was almost like the waiter was pissed with us. We did get some great leaftovers! Yum.

Happy New Year!

Well, Happy New Year everybody. I have attached 2 pix from lunch on New Year's Eve. We ate at BJ's on Eastern and had a lot of laughs. Judy. Judy. Rick. and I. The evening was spent sitting around the fire pit in the back yard with Steve and Brett and our old friend Jim (Beam). Watched the fire works from the street and then hit the sack.
