We took a little stroll over to the Wynn not too long ago. That hotel is just so beautiful. I wish my backyard looked like this. But then again, I guess I would need to employ gardeners around the clock to keep it up.
Graciela was particularly fond of their waterfalls and wanted to jump in. I had to hold her back. All I wanted was a picture, but the kid is really strong and kept turning around trying to escape.

I don’t know if you remember, but Luis really likes the Titanic. So when my brother offered to watch Graciela so we could go out, Luis and I decided to go see the Titanic exhibit at the Luxor.
They had all sorts of really cool artifact that have been rescued from the bottom of the ocean.
They recreated some of the rooms on the Titanic so you could see how things really were on the ship.
They even had one huge piece of the side of the ship.
At the end of the exhibit, they had a wall with the names of all those who lost their lives on the Titanic, and it was just absolutely crazy to think that those lives could have been spared.

Ambulances should have little curtains covering their back windows.
Confession #10
March 6, 2012
My name is Luis Merino and I confess that I am currently obsessed with everything and anything having to do with the Titanic… (the actual ship and its sinking, and not James Cameron’s 1997 blockbuster movie based on said ship).
When I was in the 4th grade, we watched a National Geographic documentary about the Titanic, which had sparked my lifelong fascination. I found that documentary at the library and watched it over… and over… and over… I don’t know what it was about the ship and its sinking that made it so interesting to me.
I recently came across a documentary called Titanica on Netflix, and suddenly, I had to learn/read/watch as much about the Titanic as possible.
Since then I have read the ENTIRE Wikipedia articles on the following subjects:
- RMS Titanic
- Sinking of the RMS Titanic
- Crew of the RMS Titanic
- Passengers of the RMS Titanic
- SS Carpathia
- SS Californian
- RMS Olympic
- RMS Britannic
- White Star Line
- Wreck of the RMS Titanic
- Legends and Myths Regarding the RMS Titanic
- RMS Titanic alternative theories
- RMS Titanic in popular culture
I have also watched the following:
- Titanic: Death of a Dream (3 hour documentary)
- Titanica (documentary)
- A Night to Remember (1958 movie)
- Voyagers of the Titanic (a 1982 episode of Voyagers)
- Titanic (1996 CBS mini series)
Natalia: You’re so weird!! Not to mention, you seem to be under the incorrect belief that Jack and Rose never existed… we all know they did!!
Luis: Now who’s being weird
where is your mother?

I was stopped at a red light earlier this week, looked up and saw one of many billboards. My first thought was, “Oh, the Porn Expo is in town again.” (I don’t think that is the official title of their expo, but they do have one here every year.) I then looked closer, to my horror. It is a sign for a Quinceañera!
How on earth is that child supposed to be 15? And would a mom really let her 15 year old set foot outside of the house looking like that?

I see them every day, but I still haven’t made up my mind about what I think about them. Fun? Tacky? Exciting? Idk. What say ye?
Luis: Super tacky.
