Matt Holthe's Fleeting Thoughts

I am officially going back to Las Vegas for March Madness in 2017. The flights are purchased and we have the hotel room reserved. 11 weeks from today is the date we will be leaving. In a few weeks we will be deciding on the viewing parties for Thursday and Friday. There are a lot of different options for viewing parties - do we want no frills, food included, drink included, or food and drink included? How much do we want to spend for a reserved seat all day? Do we want to be on the strip or downtown? Do we want to be close to the hotel? A lot of decisions are needed for the viewing parties, and all that will happen after the holidays.

Today I bought the last thing on my Christmas shopping list. I did almost all of my shopping on line this year (yes, bad Matt, "buy local") but it's just far too easy to take 10 minutes out of my day and find gifts on line and buy them and have them delivered for free. I can't even get to most stores in 10 minutes if I drive.
