Ready, Set, Gamble!

Vegas flight is booked!  Woohoo!!!

And I'll tell you.  It wasn't easy.  First, I thought I'd use my free awards ticket from Southwest.  That was quickly dashed when there were no awards flights available.  I was heartbroken.  I even stopped eating dinner to pout a little.  To actually buy the flights would cost me $560!!  Fuck that.  My heart sunk a little more.  How could I let my friend down?  We'd been talking about for a week (ok, a week is not a long time, but every time we email or chat or see each other during a business trip, we always talk about going to Vegas again, so it's been in the making since my bachelorette party).  Anyway, I looked at expedia and all the other sites.  Prices were still too high.  I finally remembered that I had a credit with Delta from a cancelled flight last year.  I hopped over to Delta.com and found a decently priced flight with ok flight times.  I called up Delta and booked my ticket.  It was a win win for me.  I got to use a credit that I thought was going to go to waste and I bought a ticket at an acceptable price.

So in 25 days I'll be in VEGAS!
