#78 Go to Vegas with a Group

This was not on the original list. Stuff happens and lists change. No big deal.

But actually after spending a weekend in Vegas with a group of people and some friends I haven’t seen in a while, it felt like I deserved to cross off a goal. So hence this goal was created!

Now I just spent 4 days in Vegas and as far as my social comfort zone is concerned I stomped over it and properly socialized. Went to brunches, fancy dinners, crazy dinners, hung out by the pool, went to Blue Man Group, saw Penn &Teller, got to drive sports cars, and lots of walking around the strip. That’s a lot for my workaholic introverted self. I crammed just enough of Vegas for me to probably not want to do Vegas for a decade or 2.

No offense, but Vegas is not for me. I had a lot of fun and it was great to see my friends, but when it comes down to it I was definitely socially overloaded. Grateful I did it and I was proud of my dorky self for going and enjoying myself.

#89 Drive an Expensive Sports Car

I went to Las Vegas last week and found a race track that lets you drive sports cars around their track. I chose the Toyota Supra which isn’t their most expensive sports car, but I chose that one so I could drive around in something I would feel comfortable in. The Supra is valued at $65k.

I got to drive 15 laps in a the Supra and I had an instructor with me the whole time. I got some awesome racing tips and tricks and by the end of it I felt confident in driving at speeds I never thought I’d get to and I got to go 127mph on the straight away, which just felt fantastic.

Driving the Supra was easily one of the best times I’ve had in a long time!
