Las Vegas Trip: Cosmoprof Trade Show & Cirque du Soleil Beatles “Love” at the Mirage Backstage Pics!

AHHHH I haven’t blogged in sooooo long, I really need to catch up! Here are the last of my pictures from July. We went to Vegas for the Cosmoprof Trade Show, a super nerdy convention with vendors from all over the world pushing supplies for beauty businesses. Jars and lids and boxes, oh my!! We met with cosmetic manufacturers and container/packaging suppliers for Sugarpill and did business with guys in suits. Oh, and we also went to Cirque du Soleil.

Tess, Amelia and me rocking Cosmoprof in our best business attire. Just kidding, we do not understand the concept of business attire! But look how smart Tess looks in that scarf.

Driving to Vegas: World’s Tallest Thermometer in Baker, California, Tacky Diner, & First Night in Vegas

The drive from L.A. to Vegas was a blast. After having spent a week with Amelia, we’d picked up on her Australian slang and entertained ourselves by doing bad impressions of her during the entire 4-hour drive.

Crash course in Amelia speak:
Bottle-o = Liquor store
Trackydacks = Sweatpants
Serviette = Napkin
Let’s dack him = Let’s pants him
Get a rat up ya! = Cheers!
Sexpest = Pervert (this was our favorite!)

“Did you see that sexpest in the tight trackydacks buying serviettes at the bottle-o? I thought he was going to dack me!”

We drove through Baker, California (population: 914), which is famous for being home of the world’s tallest thermometer. IT WAS 117 DEGREES (47.2° C) WHEN WE GOT THERE!!!!! You have no idea how much we are dying in this photo. We literally pulled the car up as close as we could get to it, jumped out, took a picture, and ran back into our air-conditioned car at lightening speed. In that short minute we were outside, my septum ring had already heated up enough to burn my upper lip!
