The Strip.......and other news......

Angie and I went down to the strip for the second time tonight. It is no longer the strip that I remember. I remember it being separate hotels and casinos where you could walk from one to the other on the sidewalk. Now these once empty spaces are filled with walkways, fast food joints, restaurants and shops ranging from the neighborhood drugstore to things such as Tiffany's. There are no open spaces between the casinos. They all kind of run into one another. One thing that is the same is the advertisement that the casino and hotels do...basically they are everywhere. Advertisement from who their celebrity guest is, to the fabulous new show to the deals of the day.

In other news, I still have not heard back from The Shade Tree, which to me means I did not get the job there. Although I am a little disappointed, I am not going to let that stop me. I spent a few hours working on an application for the Southern Nevada Housing Authority. The position is an Occupancy Specialist- basically a person who determines the rent subsidy for a person. I have had my hand in this in small ways within the last few years through the work that I do so maybe this could be my next job.

Angie goes home on Wednesday evening, which will be weird for me since all of my time in Vegas has basically been spent with her. I am usually not one to have a lot of close girl friends. The few that I have, have been around for a long time. I think that Angie and I get along as well as we do because we are so much alike. Usually that would cause a strain on a friendship, but I think that is what has made ours. I 'get' her and I think she 'gets' me. I am excited about the possibility of her actually moving here and us getting a house together. We managed to stay with each other through a 3 day drive followed by a week and half of each other without wanting to kill each other.
