The Casino Giveth And The Casino Taketh Away.
Well I am still alive, nurseing my 5th or 6th scotch and club soda. Vegas has been pretty awesome to me lately. I've got a job now, been working at it for a few weeks now. The people are pretty ok, but some still grate my nerves the wrong way and make me want to commit mass homicide. The boss still doesn't know my name, but then again, why should he. I only work for him.
This week has definatly had its ups and downs. Had to work through last weekend, but got a fat check to help compensate for it. Rear ended some chick on wensday on the 215 going to work. Scrached her rear bumper a little bit and kinda fucked up the front end of my car. So I gotta replace a few cosmetic parts now and get another paint job. I was gonna do that anyway so there! I am thinking black with a red racing stipe because it goes so fast. Thursday I went to play poker at the Red Rock Casino. If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. Its not that I wasn't getting cards, but I just couldn't win a had. My kings were cracked twice, my aces twice, I'd flop a straight, they'd get a flush on the river. In three hours of play I might have taken down four pots. Bullshit! I am done with the limit hold 'em cash games. Going to give no-limit cash games a chance as soon as I have the bankroll to afford it. If that doesn't work out, I'll just have to stick to no-limit tournments. Today I was off for the first time in 12 days so I decided to celebrate. I went down to the local walmart and picked me up some scotch and then played some Day Of Defeat: Source for awhile. Once I was sick of getting my ass kicked I decided to go blow off some steam at the casino. Once again I went to Red Rock, but this time I made the penny wheel of fortune machine my bitch and smacked $100 dollars out of that ho. Then I got some free drinks and watched some clueless tourist not pay attention to his black jack machine and loss fifty bucks in about 5 seconds flat. So what does he do after his lady is done yelling at him. Pulls out another C-note and losses that too. Its people like this that make sure I dont' have to pay state taxes.
God Bless Las Vegas.
