Quoted for truth. I feel exactly the same way.
Though the last time I wore a tie was at my 30th High School reunion. The Old School Tie tied loosely, hanging between by breasts, schoolgirl-fashion. Actually.. I think that's the only time I've worn a tie because I wanted to, and thought it looked good. It went well with the black top and dress denim skirt anyway.
It's an all-male school, so it took a bit of courage to attend. First time I've ever had drinks brought for me, it was wonderful! There was some serious SQUEEing afterwards.

As opposed to "We're Definitely Dwarves".

You poor thing. You should try to find hotels that were built before 1980.

or spend a tad bit more money...

Sometimes spending more =/= better accommodations. For example, one hotel i'd go to on vacation is nearby a Walmart, a large shopping center, a transit hub, and a few other perks, whereas the hotels in the more touristy areas are smashed together and the nearest market/shop is overpriced and limited.

You know, I have never once had any problem doing up a tie, probably comes from 12 years of having to wear a tie for school. (I wouldn't count the first two years as everyone had to wear those stupid fake ties with the elastic string to go around the neck, god, I hated those things).

Quite so. The Mrs. and I honeymooned in Las Vegas for a fortnight, hopping to a different hotel every two days. We got most of our supplies at the CVS on the strip, because it's just as reasonable priced as any other CVS. Other places had priced jacked up through the roof...Subway's "$5 footlongs" were $14.50.
Niagara Falls was a little trickier, since it gets more revenue from tourism than gambling (though there are a couple casinos there), so we had to drive several miles north, to Niagara-On-The-Lake (yes, that's really the name of the town), and got cold cuts from a local deli, and made sandwiches back at the hotel room. A nice, quiet dinner.
...My wife still won't let me live down the fact that I forgot a knife to spread condiments, and I ended up using a toothbrush to do it instead. You do that once, and you learn from it. I was only 19 at the time. ^^;;
