Galentine's Day.

If you don't get the reference, you need to start watching Parks and Rec, like, yesterday.

Anyway, I spent Galentine's Day 2012 with Liz in Vegas. A perfect combination of awesome and magic. As such, we thought it would be appropriate to see LOVE at the Mirage that evening, and it was SO AWESOME. Like, it hurt my face it was so awesome. I'm not sure if the writers/creators of Cirque shows are drunk or high or sucking helium when they come up with some of this stuff, but whatever it is, I'll have what she's having. SO MINDBLOWING.


Prior to the show, Liz was a real lady and brought me Galentine's Day flowers. Made of chocolate. We frolicked all over town like little girls. Well, little girls that can drink legally and have legitimate credit cards with which to buy ridiculous Las Vegas souvenirs. We watched the Oscar-worthy "Sirens of TI" show (more lipstick! more heels!), saw the fountain show at the Bellagio, and sang to one another in the long, narrow halls of the Venetian. In short, we perused everything good Vegas has to offer.

Oh, and a bride. SO many brides on V-Day.

New York, New York.
Sneak peek: we rode the rollercoaster on Thursday. 

Par-ee!

 Vegas at night. It literally sparkles.

Highlights of the evening included: seeing two randoms get married in a hotel gift shop, a serendipitous dinner at the only restaurant in all of Vegas where you didn't need reservations on V-Day (whoopsie), and hitting it BIG at the casinos:


Tomorrow we shall discuss the greatest meal I ever ate and why I'm certain Liz is boning whoever runs Joel Robuchon's twitter account.
