It's really cold in my apartment

Friday we went to Vegas. We arrived pretty late, grabbed dinner and went to bed.
The next day Michael and I went to the runner's expo to pick up our race packages. I had it in my head, for some reason, that there was going to be maybe 12 or 15 thousand runners. We ultimately walked into an expo that was the same size as the one in Boston, but somewhat less crowded.
Met up with my mom, Jay and Andrea and we went to Freemont Street for dinner and to wander around a bit. It was cold in Vegas. Like, really, really cold. I was kind of surprised. I wasn't expecting it to be balmy, but I could feel my testicles retreating into my body cavity it was so bitingly chilly.
Back to the MGM. Set the alarm for 4:30 as the race was at 6:15.
I contemplated running the half instead.
How weird do you have to be to go to Vegas in December to run a marathon the day before your birthday?
Rhetorical question.
