I Did Not Go to Las Vegas, But If I Had

Rate: 15 Flag

It would have been a life-changing experience for me.  All would have marveled at my eye for fashion and my taste in music and entertainment.  Witty remarks I made off the cuff would have had my OS cohorts tittering for days and all would adore me in Vegas as they do in PDX.  My neighbors love me.  Friends show up in the morning for impromptu coffee and shopping at Goodwill and Fred Meyer.  I am the bon vivant of NE PDX, and would have been in Vegas had I gone.  Of that I am convinced, so no regrets have I for not having attended, only for my poor OS cyberfriends, who are the poorer for me not having been there.  SO THERE!

I might add, a life-changing experience for me, and those lucky enough to gaze upon me and bask in the glow of my company.

No doubt you would have been all *that* and more........much more.

But of course! How could it be any other way with you in the group?

Yes, Buffy, Spotted, Kindof, Cartouche, and Lisa. It's the huge ego and disregard for the feelings of others that makes me so popular.

UK, I marvel at your self-restraint. I am once again outdone. Wah.

Well then UK, you should go to my Nicholas Bros post and rate and comment. Almost every one here at OS (with about 3 exceptions) totally ignored that particular post of which I am most proud! I've had to take extra melatonin at night to help me sleep after that debacle.

I know I REALLY do appreciate your readership, and probably WOULD very much have appreciated your company. Your comments on my posts enlighten me...perhaps because you live a life of experiences that uniquely inform my own. ....and... this is the reason why.

What? No got-up-on-stage and sang-like-sarah-boyle element in the faux fantasy?

This really nails how people daydream about such things.

Thank you Diotima. I would have done that too, and then I would have fucked somebody incredibly out of my league and left him heartbroken. I could you know. Just don't want to be unseemly, like Umbrellakinesis.

I don't think this is self-congratulatory enough latethink. Could ya please try a little harder?

Well I would, Emma, but I am just not the kind of gal who likes to try very hard. I enjoy boasting without putting any real accomplishments behind the boasts. It's all complete fantasy and therefore cannot be disproved. Ha.

Cindy, Cindy, Cindy. How can I answer in character when I'm gasping for breath from laughter. Here goes: Indeed we would have, had finances not prevented. What a keen eye you have. It is of course, Franz Marc. It's a blue cat licking its coo.

If I had gone there I would have enjoyed meeting you.

Yes, Ablonde, of course you would have, kind of goes without saying. (I'm kiddeeeeng like Allergy Pacino in Scarface). Thank you so much for stopping by.

Cindy, how would I know what you are thinking? I might be spelling it wrong. Maybe it's "cu." Actually, it's "Two Cats, Blue and Yellow." It's a very pretty picture. You can see it on line. I had so much fun today over at your blog and all over OS today. Thanks so much everybody. I have not laughed so hard in ages.

I'm going to have to take that bon vivant title for myself - the bonvivant of NWVT.

Emma, you should have taken the StingStop I offered!

I hate it when people try to hide their fabulousness. I knew something was missing from those Las Vegas recounts, and now I know that something was you! Rated - I'm certain it would be an absolute pleasure to know you.

Yes, I agree.....except if I had been there, everything and everyone would have been overshadowed.....(I have that kind of presence!)
NOT!

Well, Mumbletypeg, since you're on the opposite coast, use it all you want, just remember where you heard it first.

Annett2009, I've been hiding my fabulousness for 50 years. I'm going to stop.

Patricia K--It's your huge boobs that would have overshadowed everything. You do have that kind of presence.

We can have our own PDX gathering to celebrate our fabulousness. Everyone will be SO jealous!

Hello Monique. Everyone will be OS jealous. Yes they will.
