I've been in Vegas since this past Wednesday...attending a teaching conference. The only other time I was in Vegas was to change flights on my way home to Charlotte...while attending another teacher conference. I'm not a high roller nor do I have any interest in gambling so I was a little reluctant to leave my students for 3 straight days to come out here. But...as the past few days have transpired...I think about what I've been able to accomplish...
1. I had 4 + hours of writing and thinking about my proposal on the flight out.
2. I had about 4 more hours of writing and thinking about my proposal on Thursday.
3. I spent a wonderful morning, Thursday...at the spa at MGM Grand...time just focused on me!!
4. I presented to a great group of educators about my classroom practice Thursday afternoon.
5. I spent a little more time at the spa Thursday evening...after that presentation.
6. I had a great dinner 2 nights in a row with 2 very good friends!
7. I witnessed some of the "color" that Vegas has to offer on the Strip Friday night...and...
8. I will have about 4 + hours I can dedicate to my proposal on the flight home.
So...I guess what I'm saying is, Tony 1, Vegas 0
