We celebrated New Years a little early, by going to see Joel Mchale do standup at a casino in our area:
Aaahh!! This is awesome!
These are Parks and Rec colored pencils and they are the coolest thing ever
I couldn't handle the names of the colors
I kept saying, "ooh, I like this one the best. No! I like this one best!"
Things also kept breaking in our room we went to flip the lock over and the bolts just came out of the latch and it fell to the ground, I also dropped something in the sink and went to pick it up and somehow the whole like drain cover just came off in my hand.
this is pretty!
You can also play the TV sound in the bathroom. Nothing I love more than being able to hear Cheaters while I shower
So I was desperately trying to find a gif from the movie Disturbia where Shia LeBeouf is home eating ice cream and watching Cheaters, and he's like, "Man up, Leonard" or whatever, but all i can find is gifs from Rhianna's Disturbia video. I'm so disappointed in the internet right now
One new thing is Loew's hotels do those "room checks" as well now. But I found they were much easier to deal with. There was definitely no knocking or barging in and I think it's more to check that the people are okay, rather than to check the room itself. We just got regular room service everyday, but one day we did forget to take the "occupied" sign off our room. Despite it saying that they would enter even with the sign up, they didn't. But they did text us the next afternoon and ask if we were ready for room service and if there was a time that would work best for us. I do like how they text you from the front desk for things like information, check in, and room service like this. It's very handy and non intrusive. When they texted we were out of the room so I just told them they could come in right then. They were very polite about it and easy to deal with.
I was annoyed by it at the Polynesian. On our vip day, the hotel called me to ask why we had the room occupied sign on, did we need service, could they go in. I was like, do whatever you want, we're with our guide, leave me alone. (but nicer), and then one day we were in there and we told housekeeping we didn't want service, but we asked for towels, which they brought to us, and then DH went to find them b/c we were out of toilet paper. They STILL sent a guy to check our room, while I was sitting at the desk curling my hair and the kids were sprawled out on the beds. He was like, "Ok, the lamps are working, and the lights in the bathroom. Good." And left. What?? Why WOULDN'T the lights be working, and wouldn't we have called if they weren't? They need to stop pretending it's anything other than a safety check, that's what makes it annoying. Don't try to pass it off as anything else, and come at a set time each day. Like, if you decline housekeeping, someone will check your room between the hours of x and x.
When we first got in we saw something new since our 2015 visit, you are now greeted by Mr. 305 himself, Pitbull. Neither of us are Pitbull fans, but my aunt is a huge Pitbull fan
I took this to make her jealous since she calls Pitbull "her man".
LOL!! Xavier calls him Mr. Worldwide in a mocking way. Like, "Mom, did you know Mr. Worldwide is in that new Ugly Dolls movie??"
Most of these look great but that might be the least Elvis looking Elvis I've seen, lol! My step mom would probably try making out with it. She thinks he's still alive, have I told you about that???
(Btw I watched one of those "kids identify 90's songs" videos they have the other day, and not one of them knew who sang that song).
Deep Blue Something!! I was in middle school when that came out, I think. Around 95 or 95??
It looks like Jennifer Lawrence and Cate Blanchett had a statue baby.
I also get the Moana/Te'fiti vibe!
I like seeing all of the Outside the Bubble stuff you guys did!
