My Household Entertainment


This is what Hubby and I do on Saturdays. Stay in jammies and play PS3 and Wii games. LOL!

I almost did not post the pic.Why you wonder?

 I normally don't like taking pictures, especially waist down. I don't know exactly why. I know part of it is I don't like the way I stand. This picture doesn't show it too much. 

My hair is a mess, 

And as you see I am in my pj's. 

My Handsome Lovable Hubby is in the background watching me. He just smiles. I ask what is he thinking and he says "Nothing" but hmmm….

He is probably thinking, my silly wife. LOL!

I had trouble getting PS3 motion controller to calibrate all week.  Hubby was finally able to.

After some archery, tennis and bowling I am tired. It is amazing how these games can wear you out.

Being on my feet even for a short time is a challenge as well. When I am having fun, I ignore it as much as I can and take little pit stops and sit for a minute or two then I continue on until I can't really go on.

So this is how we entertain ourselves and each other.

Sometimes I enjoy just watching him play some of his games. 

That's one thing we differ, the genre of games we like and play. He likes cars, sword fighting, boxing. I like shooting like Doom, trivia, arcade like games. However, both of us enjoy one car game and the Sports games.

So for those who didn't believe I wasn't feeling better, here's evidence that I am!

What does your family do for entertainment?

Vegas: Entertainment

OOPS--I had this post in drafts and never got around to publishing it. DOH ME!. Let me see if I can finish blogging about my Vegas trip MyHubby and I went to last month.

We had no clue what we wanted to do in Vegas besides tying the knot  As in previous posts, unseen circumstances prevented us from doing more..

Besides People Watch, there are many things to do in Vegas.  Don't laugh! People watching in Vegas can be entertaining!. I think MyHubby was entertained by watching drunk women in tight mini skirts falling over their HIGH HEELS and BOOBS falling out. He kept saying, "Geezus" or "Did you see that?" "

Umm No Honey, I don't go looking at other women's boobs," I would respond. He would counter, "How did you miss that?"

Anyway during my research before we left, I obtained some free tickets to The Auto Collections.

It is the world largest classic car showroom. It was in our hotel! Most of the cars were for sale. For the girls, unless you are a car enthusiast, let your guy go alone. To me it was boring although I did see a few interesting ones out of the 240+ cars.

At our hotel, in the casino there were Dealertainers. They were impersonators of singers that would perform and deal. However, when they entertained it seemed the action in the casino stopped. To me they would have them to distract the gamblers. But what do I know, right?
Some of the impersonators we saw were Rod Stewart, Madonna, Taylor Swift, Tina Turner, Toby Keith, Shakira, Lady Gaga, and Bette Midler to name a few!

One night we saw the famous Carrot Top. It was the first time I saw him live. He was hilarious! He used a lot of props! Some were good and some were WTH? The only thing I didn't like was the way he ended the show. It was almost like  coitous interruptus (Not that I ever experienced it!). Sorry for the less than G rated analogy but it is what I can come up with at this very moment.  I heard similar comments as we walked out the auditorium.

At  Harrah' hotel and casinos next door we saw Legends in Concert! It was an hour of singing along, dancing in the chair, toe tapping fun!. It brought us back in time! The host was Impersonator Whoopi Goldberg. We were entertained by impersonators of  Elvis, Toby Keith, Bobby Darin, Carrie Underwood and Donna Summer. The Dance teams was awesome! A must see!

As we ate dinner one night we saw an intense display of an erupting Volcano at the Mirage. It was absolutely breathtaking with awesome sound effects! I read about it later, it underwent a $25 million renovation in 2008.

One day we walked through the Botanical Gardens at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino. Beautiful!!

We did obtain some free tickets to the Gondola Rides but we got lost and never made it. Oh well, another time maybe.

We also noticed  a lot of the performers, like Donna and Marie were on vacation during the week..

But all in all, it was a pretty good vacation. There was just so much to do and see it can overwhelm a person like me.
