12/07 - Thermal Thursday!

Thanks I got it now I'm not used to the site functions.

 

Really? I just manually click the noms button all the time when people are posting HITs. I usually don't even try to PandA them.

 

I wasted a lot of time screenshotting the horribly proofread directions to make a joke on TH before realizing that was probs survey content and thinking better of it.

Plus.. some of those sentences were serious "wtfs" lol.

 

I just always checks out hotels.com/expedia/groupon etc. You'd be shocked how often hotels have stuff running to fill extra rooms. I also talked my way into a free upgrade because matt was being a total dick at check in and I shooed him away and asked if they had any unoccupied suites near the top, ended up on the 35th floor. Being nice and just asking goes a long way sometimes, it can't hurt. I would have taken the upgrade for a small charge too tbh, it was fun. I left her a very nice comment card.

I also picked a hotel on the strip that was nice but older and not as flashy, so it was a little less popular than say Linq/Cesars/Luxor/etc but was across the street from Venetian and Palazzo which cost twice as much. I have travelled A LOT on very meager amounts, finding deals is like crack to me.

I do usually use Hotels.com, I need to remember Groupon next time. Hotel cost is one of the big things that has deterred us from ever taking an actual vacation.

Side note just curious if anyone's seen the move Mother! I hated it at first especially because I love darren aronofsky movies but once I had to youtube the meaning of the movie I felt like an idiot for not picking up on the signals [no spoilers] and thought it was great. Anyone can shoot me a pm about what they thought of it it's no requiem for a dream but I think it was really good.

 

Been meaning to watch this when I get a chance. People seem to either like it or hate it. My friends who like the same type of movies I like said it was good.

 

Its super good if you catch on to the theme which I'm too stupid to do.

I have family that lives in Michigan that I haven't seen since I was a kid, so that would actually be a really good extra excuse to go. Thanks for the tip!
