TIP: Don't get your wisdom teeth pulled if you are going on vacation 5 days later.

Colleen learned the hard way on this one. She got her wisdom teeth pulled last Monday and figured she would be fine by Friday. She figured wrong. Friday began our weekend getaway to Green Bay for Ryan's birthday. Colleen was either in pain, or extremely drugged up the whole weekend. Because of this, she pretty much stayed in the hotel room all weekend…with the exception of a trip to dinner and a short visit to the hotel hot tub. I think she got dry sockets.

Why is it that every time we are on vacation, something is wrong with Colleen? She was sick when we were in Vegas in September. I told Colleen that she is not allowed to get any surgeries or get any germs before our next trip.

Despite Colleen's condition, we still managed to have fun. We partied in the hotel room the first night, and actually managed to get a noise complaint. The weird thing was, the hotel staff did not inform me of the complaint until the following afternoon. A lot of good that does.

We made several trips to the casino, where Ryan got me hooked on Blackjack. We played late night bingo on Saturday, where there was quite the interesting crowd. I think were were the only people there that were not smoking. None of us won any of the games. The only thing we went home with were lungs full of smoke.

The last day, I did pretty good on the Blackjack table and pulled out when I was ahead. Over both days at the casino, I ended up about $70 richer, so that was pretty cool.
