Guest post: Gotta catch them all!

By: Jessica B.

Hi all! It’s Rachel from I’m a Mom in Real Life! The fabulous Jessica asked me to write up a guest post for her & since I love her to bits I said yes.

Oh wait, you don’t believe that I love Jessica to bits?

You know what today is?

So there you go!

I decided to make Jessica the next blogger in my Bloggers you should know series. So get excited because Jessia just got her very own;

BLOGGER CARD!

Guest post: Chicago vs. Vegas

By: Jessica B.

The first awesome guest post comes from the lovely Jenn at Free and Flawed. Enjoy!
What is it about guest posts that turn even the most creative bloggers into a big ball of writer’s block? Don’t worry, this isn’t turning into a blog post all about how guest posting is so hard. I won’t make you read a list of reasons why guest blogging is so hard or how many topics I thought of before settling on this one. But just in case you wanted to know…No, no. I promised Jess a real post so here it is!
While Jess is off having a blast in Vegas, I’m here in Chicago nursing my jealousy wounds. I had originally planned to tag along, but due to the lack of piles of dough, I decided to stay. So instead of sulking around the apartment all weekend, I’ve come up with a list of reasons why it’s better to be in Chicago.
  • While you’re dumping coin after coin into the slot machines, I can just walk over to the closet vending machine. 75 cents in, tasty, refreshing pop out. I’m always a winner.
  • I’ve seen 21, I know all about those card counters. While you’re losing money at the tables, I’ll be playing a mean game of Monopoly with my grandma. What began as a game of strategy and balls turns into a fun game of hide & seek. Where’s grandma hiding those pink fifties?
  • If I’m tired of looking at boobs, I just turn off the porn. I mean…what?
  • You know that saying, “what happens in Vegas – stays in vegas”……uh…..if you believe that, yeah, you might want to check out “YouTube”……
If none of that means anything to you, I’ve saved the best for last. Wait for it…
Mwa ha ha ha! Winner.
Hope you’re having a blast in Vegas!
