Barry the Gnome. And Halloween in Vegas.

Ladies and Gentlemen, now introducing...the one, the only...Barry the Gnome.

Barry comes from Oooobenflouzendorf, Deutchland. He has been sent to me by a very special little brother friend to provide hours of entertainment (which he already has). Barry is here to keep an eye out on me, but since he is so far away from his lover, Sven, I have to take pictures of him so Sven knows he's not out carousing with the "wrong kind of people". Thank you, PTO :). You are the bestest. Everyone welcome Barry to the Blog.

So last night was Halloween. I woke up nice and early and put on some running clothes and my iPod and a ballcap (keeps people from talking to you...they think you're a local) and walked down to Ross...bought myself a makeshift Vegas costume--Rockstar. At Starbucks I met some great new Vegas friends, Scott and Steven who are here to open a new store in a mall on the strip. I met them on there first day in Las Vegas! What are the odds. That night we met up for sushi dinner and then we walked the strip a little...saw some hilarious costumes, and ended up at the Wynn's outdoor patio/bar/light show extravaganza. It was a fun night...see above pics :).

Today we had our first shows in Vegas...4 more, and then we leave Friday for Arizona. Can't wait to get out of here.
