I’m just getting my breath back after a whirlwind trip to Las Vegas for my 30th birthday. It was my wife’s first trip to Vegas, so we toured the Strip and downtown and saw the shows and walked…and walked…and walked.

Seriously, I thought my legs were going to fall off. I was also there for a convention and covering the floor everyday was about 2 miles, plus we walked the entire Strip, not to mention going inside all of the casinos and shops. Caesars Palace alone took 2 hours to go through. My blisters have blisters.

But, overall it was a nice time. I got to see some good friends I haven’t hung out with in years, and drink catch up with them. I lost every single time I sat down to play anything, but I’m not complaining. Plus, I think the city impressed the wife enough that this may become an annual occurrence. Any one else want in?

On the birthday front, I’ve made it to 30. Apparently I’m supposed to be an adult now and put away my childhood. So, for my birthday, I bought myself a gamepad and spent the weekend playing Super Nintendo roms. We’ll see who calls the shots here, age.
