The number one fan of my blog is my ex wife. Who better to understand the ins and outs of how I feel about Las Vegas than the women I used to be married to in Las Vegas? Makes sense if you stop and think about it. If their was such a thing as a scale for ex wife's, mine would rate a 10. After the split, she decided to move back to Kansas, and she's regretted it since. See, the thing that separates Las Vegas? It's like a sickness. Calling Las Vegas a sickness is a little harsh, but once you adapt to the town? It's nothing short of impossible to get her out of your blood. I realized that a while back when I moved to Houston, I had to come back to my baby, and I did! Now, if the ex sincerely wants to make her way back to Las Vegas? I'd welcome her with open arms.
"I really enjoyed your blog post about the homeless guy and his dog. That was the best one you've had in a little while. Don't get me wrong, I like them all, but that was my favorite." I hadn't chatted with the ex in a month, so when she called me last night to tell me that she was headed to Las Vegas for the New Year? I was pleased to say the least. "Are you still wanting to come back to Las Vegas? And if so, have you gotten in touch with some of your buddies in the medical field?" Before leaving for Kansas, she had a job in the medical sales field, and it was a damn good job. A lot better job then she'll ever get in Kansas. "Yes, I still want to come back to Las Vegas, and no I haven't got a hold of anyone yet, but I will. I just scheduled my trip yesterday and I'll be out there for a week. How are your grandmother and father doing?" When she asked about my father and grandmother, I found it a little ironic. The reason being? I chatted with both of them a day before she called, and they asked how she was doing. "From what I can gather, every one is doing fine. I got a question for you, can you see the blog coming to life?"
The number one goal of any serious blogger is simple! They want to see their efforts come to life. A statement like that sounds weird to most people, but if anyone was going to understand? It would be her. "I can see it. Reality is a big part of how Las Vegas works. I remember when you started talking about this stuff a long time ago. I wasn't seeing it, but it was before you started your blog, and when I read your blog? It makes sense to me now! I didn't listen back then, but I can promise you that I'm listening now."
I like to end every post of mine with a thought I'm having..Call it the village idiot thought of the day.."If the ex ever moved back out to Las Vegas and got set up with a decent job? I'm convinced the two of us could start something big in this town. If I'm understanding her correctly? Were both on the same page about some of the things that could work in an environment like Las Vegas. Time will tell."
