Good news day!

I'm going to Vegas, baby! And since the Norwegian government isn't too keen on gambling, e.g. using my credit cards in casinos, so I've cashed out a few  Jacksons (I've always wanted to say something like that!).  50 Jacksons to be exact, you do the math.

One of my partners in crime going to Vegas


And why not have some fun with the Jacksons before I gamble it all away? By the way, I withdrew the cash from a drive-thru ATM. How freakishly weird is that? And cool, because you don't have to get out of your car. Unless the person driving (hint, she's blond and is going to Vegas) stops just far enough away so I have to hang out the window with half my body to do the deed. I'll figure out a revenge one day. One day.

Now... The plan was to shop for a dress or two today to use while staying in Vegas, but Grand Forks really isn't THE place to be when it comes to shopping... oyh.. Let's hope I find something in Vegas. On Thanksgiving day. When most shops are closed. Probability = 30% or less.

Good news number 2, the 3 big tests we were supposed to have next week have been postponed to after new year :D Which means I can enjoy sin city without boring paragraph reading (it would most likely be panic reading) at the hotel. Crisis averted.

Aaaaaaand good news numero tres! I've booked tickets home for the Christmas holiday! My feet are touching Norwegian soil December 19th and leaving January 2th (typo, but I'm too lazy to fix it) next year. Sweet! I only had to sit at a total of 40 minutes on the waiting line for KLM's support center, due to a minor technical problem, for a problem that they fixed in less than a minute.

Also, I've become slightly more geek than before. I've been in ATS (if you don't know this acronym, I suggest you go back to an earlier entry, this one. In the bottom.). While playing Microsoft Flight Simulator in multiplayer with 5 others from the class, one of them wondered about a command, and I answered "just press SHIFT + Charlie". I mean... Charlie? Really? I could just say 'C'.

And no, playing MFS in multiplayer isn't geeky. It's called practicing. We had a tower and everything! ... fine. I give in. It's geeky.

Current mood:
(I think I've become a GIF junkie)
