This past weekend I helped another girlfriend celebrate her last days of single-dom. Yes, Amy Ko is joining the ranks of married people. It's funny how you meet people in life. Someone comes into your life, say like a Toby, who starts to date the girl who takes his room in a revamped 81st Street after the frat boys left. The girl becomes your roommate's enemy because your roommate used to like that guy but dumped him for another guy. Then Toby and the girl break up and then the girl enemies who both liked the guy become friends because they can relate in their hatrid of that guy who broke their hearts. Then the girl dates a couple of guys and then that girl becomes engaged to her ballroom dancing partner. Yes, life works in mysterious ways.
Amy is due to get married October 3 and so my good friend, Caroline, aka one of the frienemies, who is now good friends with Amy, despited Amy trying to one time feed Caroline poison brownies (don't ask) became the Vegas Bachelorette Party Planner along with Amy's sister Christine. Now Caroline has an excellent resume when it comes to Vegas as she planned my bachelorette party which I like to fondly remember as the best Vegas party known to mankind. With Caroline at the helm the weekend was bound to be fun. So I signed up.
So on Friday, Sept 17th I, along with Toby and our friend, Danielle drove off to Vegas for our weekend of fun. Hum wait a minute, Toby is a guy, why was he going? Well, apparently some people can still be friends, can still be good friends after they date. It's a concept that I am not very familar with but in which Amy and Toby have perfected. And frankly, anyone who knows our friend Toby, knows that he is an everyman, able to adapt to any situation, able to talk to any person, able to find himself into a conjoining suite of 11 girls without anyone questioning his motives. And no, he is not gay.
And so the three of us drove to Vegas to meet up with the other 9 girls Amy has woven into her web of friendship. Some were her friends and some were for lack of a better word our friends aka girls that were my friends that were at my bachelorette party who has since been party of a pack of girls who goes to Vegas annually for a girls trip and thus have become friends with both Amy and I.
Pretty much the only thing I can tell you about this trip is that we stayed in the Venetian which is now my favorite Vegas hotel. We stayed in two conjoining suites that slept 6 people each, the first time I have been to Vegas and had a bed for all people staying in the room. Here are some of the tamer pics of our Vegas Girls Weekend um I mean our 11 girls and 1 guy weekend.
