It's Not A Bender, It's A Lifestyle.

Aaaand we're back to Vegas again the first week of September. Seeing Coldplay at the new T-Mobile Arena. Been looking for an act to get me to check out the new joint and one of my fave bands is as good a reason as any, Flying in on a Wednesday, out on a Sunday.

Getting away from Jetblue this time b/c for some strange reason they were charging over $200 for every return flight on that Sunday. So it's United this time, $115 done and dusted on the fare.

I'll have a $150 resort credit at Aria so I'll likely book a couple dinner reservations there. As previously mentioned I'm probably going to spend a lot of time at Aria to stay away from the general fuckery of walking the strip in summer. Sure I'll spend most of the trip shuttling between Aria and Cosmo. Might try to make i...
