The Tears Not Shed

Tears are meant to express what words can't.
In moments of happiness, I like to say, it shows the heart overflowing.
In moments of sorrow, I believe, its truly the heart and soul crying.
When scared or overwhelmed, it expresses the search that goes on for the appropriate release, that may never come.

But its the tears that aren't shed, that say the most.
The anger, the hurt, the despair, the strength.
Few have seen me shed tears and I consider that a strength of mine.
I stand strong when others are weak, so they have something to hold on to.
I think everyone should be worried the day that strength weakens and I'm left with those shed-less tears,
in my hand.

Vegas

So, because my man is just so freakin awesome, we went to vegas this year!

Day 1...  Well first before Day 1 even begins, my poor man worked a full shift at work then stayed up all night washing clothes and cleaning and INSISTED that I take my behind to sleep.  I was woken up by him moving my dresser in our room.  It was such a freakin awesome thing.  I think it came from me sayin 'Well I could feel more at home if I had some place to put my clothes.'  Behold, he moves that huge dresser from the garage to the back room all by himself.  I've had that dresser for 6 years and with every move its taken at least 2 people to move it.  He's so freakin awesome.

We stayed at the stratosphere.  Yeah, you walk into the room and after gazing at the suite you hear someone screaming and a body flying past your window, doesn't help your nerves you know.

The first night we hung out with his friends and did a wee bit gambling.  Well he did.

The next morning, I feel, was the best... WE SLEPT IN for like half the day, watching football with room service.  It was so awesome.  Anyway, I think that was the highlight of the trip for me.

We explored Vegas, did a quick peak into most of the casinos/hotels.  The stratosphere is so out of the way of everything, so I'm pretty sure we won't stay there again.  Paris and the Belagio were my favorites.  One night we sat outside and watched the water show which was freakin AWESOME!  I said I wanted to stay there next time and he was like, "It sounds expensive."  Its Vegas Baby!

I think it was NYNY where I had the craps table on fire for like 30 minutes!  My baby could have made money on my beginners luck, but he kept bidding against me.  What is up with that?

But point is we did not get married and I think that was the goal!
