Sole Traveler in Vegas

I'm going to Vegas over Halloween wkd for business. I extended my stay to Sunday as a friend was going to meet up with me for the weekend. They have since cancelled but I don't want to lose any money on my ticket so am sticking it out. I've been before but honestly toured the hotels, ate A LOT, and partied even more.
Any thoughts on what I can do to keep myself occupied as a single traveller?

Rent a car and drive out to Red Rock?

What do you like to do? There's shopping, shows, clubs, spas, etc.

Halloween is always big in Vegas, so you're in luck if you like to party - all of the clubs will be doing Halloween parties and everyone will be in costume. The strip is always INSANE over Halloween, and with it falling on a weekend, I'm expecting it to be mind boggling this year.

I will be going to Las Vegas solo myself, which I have done before. A few of the things I plan to do are to go Downtown to see the light show and meander around, go to the Cirque du Soleil Beattles's Love show, shop and walk A LOT and enjoy the surrounding hotels (I am staying at the Flamingo)

PS, there are tons of shows and if you want to you can try for the half price tickets and see what's available for that night

Book a massage or spa treatment?
Workout at the hotel health club?
Visit the place with all the old Vegas signs in a lot?

You could do what I did a few weeks ago: spend three hours at night wandering up and down the strip with your camera and tripod photographing all the casinos at night. That's what happens when you're a photographer in Vegas who doesn't gamble (or drink).
