Our girlie summer Vegas get-away (over and done with)

[mommaU4]

Yep, what she said I know there be some very large drinks available in Vegas Go Angie, go Angie Then it will be Beth's turn, so it's all good - we'll pick out something totally skanky and tarty...... um, I mean tasteful

No, you had it right the first time.

Did someone say we are getting tattoos on this trip???

Angie is our guinea pig.....er, I mean wonderful friend who volunteered to go first.

No one is as big of a wimp as me and I have 6.

Gary and I are getting one in Vegas when we go in May. He wants to say he got one in Vegas.

6?? Wow. You're gonna run out of room soon.

The only one that is not coverable so far is my finger. I have lots of room, if you looked at me most of the time you wouldn't know I have any.

Ahhh, sneaky. Do you know what tatts you are going to get in May? Or where?

 

[mommaU4]

By the way ladies, we are at 2 and 2!!!!

Two months and two days before we are together and having a blast in Vegas!!!

It's going to be a matching tat with Gary, not sure where, something Vegas related with the date of our wedding. I suggested Elvis Presley's autograph, I think he's wanted more like dice or cards, I don't know. Something small, possibly just the date LOL. It's going to be expensive.

Speaking of count downs. Today is April 1st, which means I have 14 days of tax season left, 15 days until I go to North Carolina, 1 month and 1 day before I go to Vegas and 1 month and 2 days before I tie the knot.

I like the dice idea, and then find a way to incorporate the date on those.

I'd like to get a tattoo on this trip...if it's in the budget. Dawn and I had planned on getting them last year, but never ended up doing it. I'd like to get it as a way to remember her and our time together.

Where were you thinking of getting one - have you looked at any shops at all, checked for prices, etc.? I think a small one would be nice (shhh, don't tell Frank though, 'K?)

Nice

Oooh, pink dice would be nice (I'm sure Gary would not go for pink dice, but whatever )

That would be really nice Wendy.

I think we should seriously look into it. I know the tattoo shops on the Strip can be pricey. But I can do some research into some maybe just off Strip or some that are popular with the locals. Doesn't hurt to check.

Do you have something in mind?

That's nice! I like it.
Does the shop have a website of any sort?

He can do red and she can do pink.

So what sort of tattoo are you getting??

I'm not really sure - I'd have to think about it. What about you?? I wouldn't mind something small (a little blingy??), girlie, not in your face. I would have to really thing about what I want though...... plus price it out, you know. Although not giving myself time to talk myself out of it is a good thing too

Hey Marcie, maybe we'll get tattoos instead of renting a cabana

 

[mommaU4]

I asked Ruben to ask around the pharmacy and see if anyone there has any recommendations for good tattoo parlors, so we'll see.

I found this place online that got good reviews: http://www.studio21tattoo.com/index.htm
I like how if you click on Studio and then on Tattoo Process, you get all sorts of info to get you prepped and ready to get your tattoo and then after care tips.

It's on Flamingo and when Marcie and I checked out the pool at the Rio, there was a girl working there who had all sorts of tatts. I asked her where she got them done and I think this might be the place. I do know it was also on Flamingo, so maybe.....

I did read that it's "standard" with most tattoo shops to have an $80 minimum for tattoos. I guess if I had to choose between a $70 pedicure and an $80 tattoo, I'd pick the one that's going to last more than a month. LOL

 

[mommaU4]

I'm not really sure - I'd have to think about it. What about you??

Uh yeah, no tattoos here, thanks. I'll pass. But I'll happily assist the rest of you in your tattoo planning. That's what friends are for.

Wuss!

70 or 80 shop minimum is not bad, ours is 50 here in a small town. We could get a tatt instead of a cabana if u want. It's a little crazy for me to pay when I can have for free but it would be so cool and divaish to all get one together. Would we all get something similar or just anything?

Beth the shop has a myspace but no website.I'll look up the page, right now I'm at a ballgame.

Sorry if there are typos lol

 

[mommaU4]

Wuss!

And damn proud of it.

But hey, I'll take pics for ya!

Would we all get something similar or just anything?

I think something special or meaningful for each person would be nice.
Hope the ballgame is going well!!

I'm kidding about not getting the cabana - I really want to do that Plus Wendy doesn't get in until Friday night, so we still have to do something on Thursday, so it might as well include hot cabana boys

Well, we do need a group photographer, so if you have to be a wuss, then hand holder and picture taker it might have to be The temporary henna ones we got cost me $60, so $80 is not bad (and I doubt I'd want anything too big - too much pain!!)

That's what I was going to say, that you'd have to wait for Wendy so might as well still keep the cabana for something to do.
The tatts could be done on Saturday afternoon. We have a lot of downtime after Bellagio, but before dinner.


You paid $60 for that henna tatt we did??? Wow. Mine was $25 or $30, I can't remember. And I thought that was bad. Mine didn't last very long at all and it didn't turn out great. I wouldn't do that again.
A real one is much better. For you that is.

Ummm..... wait just a minute here. I thought we were volunteering Angie to get a tattoo first
