Carlos Mencia, his brother Joseph, Brad Williams and I (Cristela) traveled to Las Vegas to do stand-up at the Palms Casino this past weekend. There was also part of the Mencia crew made up of his brother Bert, his cousin Danny, close friend Danny Boy, Randy Shropshire (who you'll never see without a camera-great photographer), tour manager Joey Sosa, and comedian Juan Villareal from Texas there as well. Not everyone could make it though; there's still more to name.

We had two shows on Saturday that Carlos was taping for a NEW CD that will be out soon. The shows were awesome. It's so weird to see the crowds at the shows. They go crazy with Brad, Joseph and Carlos; me, not so much. I'm not featured on the show so the crowds see me and say, "God I hope she's funny."

Usually, what happens is that the openers do their sets and then sit back for Carlos to do as long as he wants to do. If we're at a casino, chances are that the moment I'm done with my set, I hit the blackjack tables. I love playing blackjack so much that sometimes, it gets me into trouble.

During the second show at the Palms, the show ran long and Mencia called Brad, Joseph and Juan back onstage to hang out with him and tell jokes. From what I heard, he called my name over and over again but I didn't make it in time because I was too busy playing blackjack. WHOOPS!

I had so many people come up to me at the blackjack table and tell me, "Mencia was looking for you." Um, WHOOPS AGAIN! I made my way to the theater but obviously by that time, I was too late. The show had been over for a while and to make matters worse, I was down a couple hundred bucks. Boo!

After the show, Mencia went to his awesome suite (which had 2 bowling lanes in it) to pack because he was leaving back home after the show. A bunch of us went to Ghostbar, one of the clubs at the Palms. I lasted only 5 minutes there because I'm afraid of heights (it's one the 50th floor or something) and when I looked out from the club, I started freaking out and crying.

Oh well, I'm glad I left the bar though because you know what they say: What happens in Vegas, is probably contagious. Remember, new Mencia CD coming soon...and don't forget to watch his show Mind of Mencia on Wednesdays here on Comedy Central!
