#021 - Viva Las Vegas (Part 2 of 2)

Mondays! Who needs em! Network problems, everything crashing, scanners jamming, requests left and right, being 2 hours behind from the get go because of the network problems! BLAH! Whenever a company sends out a notice on Friday saying that they will be updating their systems….they might as well tell you not to come in the next Monday until NOON, because that’s about when they will have all the kinks worked out of the system. I do have positive news, the poison Ivy is officially drying up, so it doesn’t look like I will be needing to hike down my boxers and get a needle in the ass! MAJOR plus!

Now onward with the story of Mike and I and our adventure to Las Vegas.

So we land in Las Vegas, take the shuttle to our hotel, the Tropicana, immediately get an upgrade from the lower rooms to a suite in the tower (because they screwed up our reservation) and settle into our room. By now, both of us are exhausted. We go hit the town for a while, I blow about 50 of my 600 dollars on slots, we eat some buffet lunch (where else better to eat a buffet than Las Vegas?) and gable a little more then look at each other and realize…we’re BEAT TIRED! So we decide, it is only 7pm, we could go to the hotel, take a nap, and be up by like midnight, and take on the city that never sleeps at night. So we head back to the room, set the alarm…and sleep.

I wake up and its still light out, I feel really refreshed…I feel like I slept a full night. Then I realize, I DID sleep a full night, it was 8!! IN THE MORNING! Obviously my friend knows how to wire C4, shoot a bazooka, and kill a person with his bare hands from his Army training, but he cant set an alarm for 12 midnight! So I calmly wake him up (this dude could sleep through a monsoon) he basically grumbles and rolls over. So my second attempted is more assertive. This time he looks at me and says this…and I QUOTE:

“Shut up and make me some pancakes bitch!”

So I gave him EXACLY what he wanted. I flap jacked his ass! I picked up the mattress, and FLIPPED it right over on TOP of him! Sending him into the wall, then the floor and the queen sized mattress on top of him. It seems the day had started out better than anticipated.

We finally get showered, go downstairs, and I begin to live the best day I have ever had in Las Vegas Nevada. First thing I play is a quarter video poker. Max bets, one of the HUGE ones that you look at and your drawn to like a mosquito into one of those bug lights. I end up hitting 4 queens, and about 150 dollars. Then we walk around to the Frontier, I play blackjack pretty well, but I couldn’t LOSE this day, I end up pulling somewhere between 300 and 400 off the table there. Next is the Luxor, I am hitting every quarter slot that I play for 100 bucks, just rocking it…so I get cocky…I go up to a dollar machine. Not only a dollar machine, one of those 5 credit 5 line dollar machines, as Mike continues to tell me how stupid I am for playing, its hitting small, and I’m playing it back, in the middle of his bitch fest the little light and buzzer go off on the top of the machine. Triple sevens on the 5th and largest pay line.

Needless to say, we ate drank partied and played all we wanted, and I came home with more money than I went out there with! THAT my friends, is a good trip to the desert! I am looking forward to heading out there again sometime SOON! Maybe winning some more money! Until then, I will leave you with the QUESTION OF THE DAY!

Does city water filtration bother anyone else but myself? I mean I know there are so many chemicals in it that its probably extending my life span, but think of all the stuff that they take OUT of the water. How do we really know that STUFF is being taken OUT? WE DON’T! After looking at my water quality flier I got in the mail this past week, it REALLY makes me wonder!
