Elvis & my wife

During my recent trip to Las Vegas to attend the 2012 Watkins Conference, my wife & I took some time to walk around part of The Strip. We did this a couple of times, both before and after the business sessions.

During an evening walk, an Elvis impersonator walked passed us and my wife took the opportunity to get her picture taken “with Elvis”. Later back in our hotel room I teased her that now I needed to get my picture taken with some showgirls! She reminded me that I did have the opportunity earlier in the day.

the Flamingo Girls

It was during a walk we took in the morning before the business sessions began. We were outside The Flamingo and there were some Flamingo girls there. I remembered that. I even took a couple photos of them.

However, I was totally oblivious to the fact that they were inviting me to join them!

I totally missed that!

So, now I wonder, how many other things do I miss? What opportunities have gone past me that I could have taken advantage of — just like my wife did with getting her photo “with Elvis” and I did not with the Flamingo Girls?
