200th post!!! Yay!!!

My time in Vegas was amazing, and once I get the pics put on the computer I will have many tales to tell.

Because that whole "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" is a crock of shit.

I hate that saying, because you know what? I happened in Vegas, and I managed to get out.

But first I have a dilemma and need help from my friends in the blogosphere.

On this coming Sunday (Sunday Sunday SUNDAY), I turn 30. That's right, the big three-oh. I am rather excited at the prospect of being done with my 20s, but I have no idea how I should celebrate this big b-day.

At the moment the default is borrowing a friend's house and having a party (Vegas themed, of course), which is nice and fun and all since one of my favorite things to do is hanging out and chatting with my friends. But, I don't know, it feels like I should do something special. Some sort of ceremony. Plus the idea of having to plan and then get the basic supplies for a party is not the most appealing thing. I'd kind of like to do something really fun with as little effort as possible on my part.

I had thought of maybe ice skating or riding a mechanical bull at the country and western bar, but I want something that all my friends would want to come out and do and that is relatively inexpensive.

Any suggestions?

How would the whole Vegas theme thing work out?

How about Chuckie Cheese? They have beer, pizza, games, and a great band ... of robots!

Or we can do the vegas party! I'll help get the party ready!

some of my friends have gone on group bike rides on local beautiful islands. they always have fun, but they frequently they're 'assisted' and i'm not sure if that's quite what you're after. they seem to have fun on the unassisted rides, too.

maybe y'all could go on a hike to a picnic area. byob?

Fede-dress like what you think is appropriate for Vegas, so either touristy gaudy or slick lounge-y, whatever. I have some Vegas stuff around and a poker table, so it would all be incorporated in the decor.

Snex- Chuck E. Cheese's has beer?? Interesting.

Sparkle-Sadly, it is barely going to hit 40 degrees on my birthday, not really outdoor fun weather here. If only I were in Australia, it could be a beach party.

I'm turning 30 this year, too (May). I can't WAIT to be finished with the 20s. I usually hate my birthday, but I think I'm going to gather some friends and rent out the back room of a local bar for a 30th bash. Goodbye dreaded 20s!! Congrats to you. :)
