I’m at Circus Circus for Blog World Expo

Tuesday, November 6th, 2007

Well, after some trial and error I have got my laoptop hooked into the Circus Circus wireless network.  Yay!  Now, don’t expect a lot from me on this because it is costing me $11 a day to log in. *yeowch!* I guess for someone that was staying just one or two nights that would not be bad, but this little business woman is scampering off to McDonalds for lunch tomorrow to see if they have a WiFi hotspot there.  I’m here a whole week and can’t see paying $77 for wireless access for one week when I am not in my room during the conventions and will be working on my novels most of the time I am in my room.

I need to download Firefox to this computer though, :::whines about not having my cool spellchecker on here::::  Typing this is much harder without that auto spelling checker I have on my desktop running Firefox.

Anyway, it took me some trial and error to get the computer online here, but I am online and ready to go.  Got 24 hours access for that $11 I paid, so I can work online and catch up my work before my friend gets here tomorrow night, so I’m going to go work and — oh! I’m excited about two things.. first off - I can order The Bourne Ultimatum! I had bought and brought with me The Bourne Identity and the Bourne Supremacy, hoping that the Bourne Ultimatum would be released by the time I came to Vegas - It’s not out on DVD, but I can rent it for $10.99 on the hotel system! And Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix too!  So, my late night movie watching is all set out.  LOL

The other thing I want to note is even if they did mess up and forget my room number when I called, I reccomend the Pizzeria here at Circus Circus for anyone looking for something to eat.  Delivered straight to the room and since they forgot the room number and I had to call back they gave me the soda for free.  And the gal even had 50 cents I could get as change (gave her rest of change as tip) so now tomorrow I can lock my stuff in the room safe (costs fifty cents to lock it and get the key out of it.)  So I won’t need to carry so many things around tomorrow if I go walking around the hotel.
