Josh was assigned to a long-term project in Las Vegas, so I was really upset for two main reasons: 1) We’d be apart for several weeks, and 2) I was jealous of all the great food that he had access to! Not that we don’t have great food here in NYC, but somehow the mentality of going out to eat is different when you’re away from home.
Nevertheless, I couldn’t argue when it comes to work, and Josh appeased me by arranging for me to fly out to Vegas one weekend and meet him (we already had plans for the other weekends). We stayed at The Signature at MGM Grand, which is a condo hotel offshoot next to the main hotel/casino. The room, a one bedroom suite, was absolutely incredible – and it was larger than our one bedroom apartment here in NYC! There were two full baths, including one with a Jacuzzi tub, as well as a fully equipped kitchen and a flat panel TV that rose up from inside a desk. Simply insane. But, this being Vegas after all, we were rarely in the room and only used the fridge in the kitchen to hold some bottles of champagne for pre-dinner drinks. I came to Vegas with my meals already mapped out, and our bellies definitely grew after this trip.
