Sunday night – las vegas

I’m in las vegas for aworkconference.. one of the placesin the world where I fit in the least.. i think

i left home with 2 feet of snow and 12 degrees F.. and came here where it’s 80 degrees..   The culture shock is even more than the weather..

so many people.. so much noise…

but theres something I still liek about it.. but … only a little

i got in midday and then accidently feel asleep…

Headed to the conference venue to check it out and ran into a zillion good friends. That was fun

I have a tlak tomorrow.. so I need to get soem sleep.. after that I can spen d more time hanging out wiht people…

 

looking forward to that !
