Doing the Outlets? Yes Please!!!!

Today's major thing was The Nevada County Court House. We had to be downstairs at The Bell Desk by 10 am to catch the Limo. We had a Silver stretch and our driver was Micheal. He was lovely and chattered away the whole time. After about 5 minutes he said " So where in New York are you guys from?". We both blinked then fell about laughing ~ great icebreaker. He dropped us at the Court House and onward we went to complete the paperwork.
I had done all the pre wedding crap prior to leaving Oz so I had a special number which enabled us to go to The Express Marriage Line. Just writing Express Marriage Line is vaguely hilarious. It all takes place in your standard Govt building but the clerks are behind really thick glass and they speak to you through a microphone....I didnt have to yell so all good. Pay your $60 US dollars and thats it ~ all done. We have an envelope we have to give to Helen The Wedding Coordinator and she then processes everything needed. We paid the extra $7 US dollars to have a Certified copy of the certificate as Mr Fab is quite determined I will have to change my name. *shakes head*. He concedes that Fabulous Scents is fine to continue with my own name but in general.......he is doing the Great Aussie Male thing. If it makes him happy it makes me happy.
Micheal picked us up and then after getting permission from The Bellagio he dropped us at the Northern Las Vegas Outlet Stores....*blink blink* Bloody hell Fab Readers!!!! I came close to fainting a couple of times I am sure!!! Managed to get Mr Fab some more shorts ...like he needed them.........for about a 1/4 of what we would have paid at home and Levi to boot. He brought two pair as apparently they were awesome. I finally have new Reeboks and paid $68.88 for TWO pairs!! Seriously. TWO pairs. I also managed to sneak in a True Religion T shirt which I would NEVER buy normally. We were stopped by a chap named Don who was the SERIOUSLY best sales chap I have EVER met and I would love him to be selling Fab!!! I ended up paying some ridiculous amount for a deabrasion skin care range which I would never do but DAMN if this stuff doesnt work??? Bloody hell I looked at one side of my raggady old face and then the side he had worked on and nearly passed out in shock. Even Mr Fab was blinking. Maybe its a quick fix but hey I am vain enough that it was enough to make me open my purse. I had to stop him though because it was a bit buy this and get that buy that I will do this cose you are wonderful and a gorgeous woman.....*yeah yeah rolls eyes*. When Vicki goes to Vegas I will be giving her some money and asking her to get me the moisturizer as it is seriously divine. The last lot he tried to sell me worked out to be $600 (but apparently more than half the normal costs and he was apparently throwing in heaps for free) and as those who know me well...I dont easily part with money so I was feeling ill by the time I finally said "Please stop I know your product is awesome I can see it but I simply cant justify spending $600". Thats when he gave me a deal on the the special stuff he used on one side of my face......Its lopsided..I didnt have a choice *looking innocent*. I certainly cant bring myself to spend that kind of money. As much as I would have liked to it just doesnt feel right. Also grabbed a sensational Fossil purse which I literally fell in love with. Went to Guess and Ed Hardy but everything looks so darn small???????
Grabbed a cab Back to The Bellagio and Mr Fab by this time had his Not Been Fed Face. Yep you know the one. Vaguely scarey and not a happy boy. The Cab driver was hilarious and  Mr Fab mentioned politics.....well this maybe Mexican? Hispanic? chap ~ he got quite worked up about American Politics. It was interesting though. We just shut up and let him rant..........he was lovely though. So we finally braved the Buffet Line. Now this line has been doing us in since we arrived as it is usually out the door and up the walkway but today at 2.30 it wasn't all that bad. The Buffet is absolutely unbelievable and has food that dazzles you!!! We had a try of everything then back upstairs. We were both stuffed and had a nap. Its now about 6.30 at night and we are going to shower and go downstairs and have a look around as everything is open all the time.
We have decided to make the trek out to The Fabulous Vegas Sign on Thursday and walk the Strip. We need to get the wedding out the way tomorrow and then we can relax a bit...tomorrow....*blink* I am booked in at The Spa from 11.55 am and go straight to the Dressing Room. Geez it must take a heck of a long time to make me gorgeous which is depressing *lol*
I will post some pics and let you know how it all goes!!! This is Tracy Hamilton ~ signing off for the last time.
