Birthday Trip: Day 2, Part 1

Time for Vegas!

     Kyle Thomas and I got up early, got checked out, and hit the 10 East on our way to Las Vegas.  Viva Las Vegas baby!  After a Starbucks run and veggie salad from Subway, we were completely ready for the 2.5 hours to Vegas.  And the drive turned out to be pretty fun.  I got a tweet from Rose McGowan (@rosemcgowan)!!  She had seen my tweet to her earlier that morning and she responded!  She tweeted that I should’ve said ‘hi’ to her at the Katy Perry concert!  Woo hoo!  Rose McGowan wanted me to say hello to her!  Wowza!  That’s big!  Then we stopped in Barstow to pick up several bags of ice!  We brought along a cooler full of ‘beverages’ that needed to be nice and frosty cool for when we arrived in Vegas!  I mean, hey, people are going to need something to drink, right?!  Darth and I are thoughtful like that, what can I say?! 

     We continued our drive…all the while tweeting and snapping photos…but also checking out some of the sites from Holly Madison’s guide to Las Vegas, The Showgirl Next Door, which I brought along in hopes of getting signed by Holly herself.

     We finally arrived in Vegas around 2pm and got to our hotel, the Cosmopolitan!  This hotel is super fab, let me tell you.  It is young and hip and posh and I just adore it!  Seriously, I would move into the Cosmopolitan if I could.   Not only is the entire hotel beautiful, the rooms are equally gorgeous.  We had some time to kill before checking into our room, so it was straight to Betsey Johnson across the steet at Planet Hollywood’s Miracle Mile shops for more birthday goodies!  And this lucky doll scored again with a pink sparkly tutu dress, a jeweled bow necklace and some blinged-out heels with glittery bows on them.  Love, love, love!!!

     Then we headed back to the Cosmopolitan to get into our room and get ready for dinner with family and friends.  And the Cosmo did not disappoint with the best room we’ve had thus far.

The entry way to our room

We stayed in a 1,200 sqft wrap around suite.  And it had the most gorgeous views of the entire strip, including the Belagio Fountains.

So Pretty!

     We then got ready to go out to dinner.  The restaurant of choice?  Sugar Factory Brassiere, doi!  And on the way there, which is a brief walk across the street, I was getting a ton of attention in my pink princess party dress.  My father-in-law Rickmeister even commented that he thought I got more stares than my BIL Colin does when walking around on a busy street.  And he’s a 6’5″ NFL QB!  Needless to say, I was quite pleased by that comment.  I mean, who doesn’t love getting lots of attention?!  ;)

     When we got to Sugar Factory, we had a table reserved that was ready for us.  Everyone’s food was so delicious!  SF has a really broad menu, so everyone was able to find something they wanted.  And the first thing I found was the perfect way to kick off my birthday dinner!

Me and my lollipop passion goblet...so good!

     Kyle Thomas had a Hubba Bubba martini and even my dad, Twade, got in on the action with a Cinammon Toast Crunch Martini.  Yummy!  We took some more pictures, ate all of our food, and then headed back to our suite to party!

CandyBarbie needed a bit of help with this one!

     We still had a lot of things to do on the evening agenda, including present-opening, birthday cake-eating and a little bit more drinking!  All with my closest friends and family!  So back to the Cosmopolitan for the rest of the evenings events!

So today I’m all by myself.  CandyBarbie is working.  Parents are in Santa Clara.  My sister and George are partying somewhere without me.  Colin is running the 1st team at 9er’s camp.  Even Sammy is staying away from me (I think he’s getting too hot or something).

But even so, I still find ways to entertain myself.  How so?  Well first I swam, then I laid out, then I swam some more, then I got some booze to drink, and then I turned to twitter.  And my camera.  It’s a fun and easy way to pass the time.  You can check out my tweets (and twitpics) at @darthkaepernick

Earlier I tweeted this pic (and then drank that booze)!

While speaking of twitter, I thought I would share some of my favorite tweeters as well as some things I like and don’t like about twitter.

I follow 86 people.  That’s more than I want to follow.  I don’t know why, but I don’t really like following a lot of people.  Actually I do know why.  Because I don’t like my timeline to be overwhelming.  I’ve actually unfollowed some friends and people I like because they just tweet way the hell too much.  It’s like in movies when someone gets super powers and they can hear other people’s thoughts, but then it’s a curse because they can’t make it stop….well that’s what some people are like on twitter.  Everything that pops into their head they tweet.  But I can make it stop, so I do…click…unfollowed!

@misslindsaykaep and @darthkaepernick at @LavoLasVegas

When I choose to follow someone, I do so because they are either someone I know personally OR I have realized over enough time that they consistently tweet funny or amusing things or information I like to know.  Or possibly they are my family’s friends and I will follow them.  The only other reason I typically would follow someone is because they are a good-looking girl.  This may be pretty ridiculous, but I’m a guy and that’s what guys do.  And girls do it to.  If you look at CandyBarbies following list, I’m certain there are a lot of pretty girls on there relative to other forms of human beings.

@hollymadison @angelporrino and @lauracroft83 are twitter favs

Probably the best people to follow on twitter are people who are care free and fun and just enjoy living life.  It’s fun to read people’s rants, but it’s not fun to read people who just complain and pout all the time.  There is a difference.

So anyway, here are a list of some of my favorite tweeters who I follow that may be slightly lesser known to some (family excluded):

  • @misslindsaykaep obviously!  Also known on this blog as its creator and author, CandyBarbie.
  • @jasonstrauss owns a bunch of nightclubs and travels around the world.  He doesn’t tweet a ton, but when he does it’s usually something interesting (like when he paid $45 for a Corona in Monte Carlo and decided he was operating in the wrong country).
  • @cosmopolitan_LV they tweet some interesting artsy stuff on top of their hotel and casino deals.  And frequently respond too!
  • @MarqueeLV for the pictures alone.  People say, “what would you do if you won the lotto”…probably party here every night!
  • @Norme_Clarke who is a gossip columnist LVRJ and frequently posts gossip about the things going on in Nevada.
  • @Rhianmarie is a UK Model who frequently writes a lot of things that could just as easily be CandyBarbie saying them!
  • @mattbarrows is the 49ers blogger from the SacBee who writes a lot of good things about @kaepernick7.
  • @lauracroft83 easily the funniest girl tweeter I follow!  Thanks to CandyBarbie for putting me on to following her.

I know CandyBarbie follows some different people than I do and has her own list I’m sure.  She also has gotten a number of responses from celebrities where as I’ve only gotten one or two.  Girls just seem to like other girls better I guess.

 

That’s all for me today.  I’m turning this thing back over to CandyBarbie.  I have to go to Chipotle and get us some dinner.  If you follow me on twitter, lets pray it doesn’t turn out like my last Chipotle trip!
