oh boy! arent i happy these few days! :)

let's see, where should i start....last thursday after work i picked up my new car! and at night, i made an offer to a condo and the seller accepted it! and yesterday i went to apply for the mortgage and got a rate of 4.4% for a fixed term!

on top of that, i am going to vegas next week in which i am actually looking forward to go! for several reasons:
- i am anticipating working only 4-6 brainless hours a day (7pm - 1am?)
- i signed up for the global gaming expo (http://www.globalgamingexpo.com) that will take place in vegas next week
- i am not staying at an hotel other than candlewood suites and amerisuites this time
- i am flying united airline (i can get aeroplan points!)
- most likely will be able to leave vegas on schedule (how many times have i said that)
- i am connecting through chicago (another city that i havent been to)
- i am stopping over in chicago for the weekend to visit my brother!
